x2000 relative pricing help

does anyone have any idea what the x2000 series cards will cost.and if i could get a high end card could i crossfire it if it was compatible with a mid or low range card.

that was in another post but thanks anyway.

Y would you want to crossfire a high end card with a low end card. Just save up till you can buy another high end card. If you could do this you'd probably bottleneck it. Thats like putting 800mhz memory with 400mhz memory. It'll down clock to the lowest set memory. Thus serving no point. Get the highest end card from ATI (xtx) when it comes out in June and then get another one once you can afford it latter on. I wouldn't doubt that it'd be around the current price of the 8800GTX, but thats just speculation.

Not from any of the early benchies sofar. IF you have something to counter them post it, until then the XT looks to be the competitor for the GTX, with the XTX being the card put forth to pre-empt the GF8900.

Potentially. just like anything if there's high demand the price would go up. Of course if you believe your first part, then why would demand be so high? You seem to be contradicting yourself a bit.

Just like your first part, this was based on what exactly?

I thought the Ultra was just supposed to be an overclocked version. If thats the case, I find it had for them to achieve a 20% increase.

From what I have seen the benchmarks were right around were I thought they'd be, remember they are only DX10 budget range alternatives, not right end.
Also, we are going to see benchmarks and additional information on the HD 2x00XT on the 23 of april. I'm hoping for some reliable benchmarks on games that are currently released, not Crysis or something else that we have nothing to compare it towards current hardware/games.
I personally think that ATI is going to dominate the lower end from what I have seen, but again I as well as no one else has anything to back up what we say, everyone is only assuming.
