295 for $800???!!!

At first they said the 480 Ferbi will have 512 shader pipelines and also the price would be 679.99 retail.

Now suddenly we find out it only has 480 shader pipelines

The 480 won't be 550 bucks, Pricing will start at close to 700 dollars because of shortage. Eventually in a couple months the price will come down to 500 to 600 bones then when their new Fermi 500 is out the 480 will be 300 bones maybe less. Well see....

Oh boy 800 bid on a 295 is sad for the winner wtf,, weird...
 
Yeah, maybe they are perfectionists who need to buy 2 of the same exact cards for a quad SLI setup? Who knows. But one thing I DO know is that the seller got a nice profit if he gets paid.

People get into a bidding war or something and don't want to lose I guess. I doubt the winner will pay, if they know anything about prices they would just buy it off Newegg or some place and save a bunch of money.
 
well there's a premium to be paid to be the first proud owner of a fermi. but I wonder where did the seller get his/her hands on a fermi so early?

And the box says you get "FREE PhysX!" 🙄

"CO-OP Edition" is just the reference single PCB version. Nothing special about it. ALL the different brands use the same reference cards provided by Nvidia.

hahaha...I didnt think I needed sarcasm tags.
 
I'd rather have 3x GTX 285 in SLI than 2x GTX 295. 4 GPUs must scale horribly. Plus that's a lot of power for "only" 896MB of RAM, as I can imagine games are gonna start using more and more memory as time goes on, as is always the case.
