GtX 480 price drop?

[lewdawg]

When will the gtx 480 drop below $459.99, and how much do you expect it to drop by?

Not as long as there's demand for it. I doubt it will drop in price this year, and if it did, it won't drop by more than $30 or so.

i would imagine they will be forced to drop the price when ATI's new 6xxx cards come out.

but by then, you can buy a 6 series card. so the already over priced 480 will be entirely obsolete.

we dont have any dates, but rumors seem to imply we will see the new cards by christmas.

Newegg has an MSI for 439.99 after $20 mail in rebate. Comes with metro 2033 as well.
