ATI IS preparing a cheaper version of its X1900 card powered with 256MB of memory. ATI's partners are expecting this card in a week or two and as far as we know the price should settle at around ?500? At this time all ATI's partners are concentrating at more expensive 256 MB card.
The card is meant to fight Nvidia's 256MB offering - especially the Geforce 7800 GTX 256MB. It will sit at the right price point and performance wise it will be faster than Nvidia's offering.
This is just the latest edition of price wars that we seen before and we are sure that it can lead to Nvidia's price drop. It is rather simple if you have the fastest card in the category you can set the price and if not you have to offer your card cheaper that is how this market works for years. The strategy is good as we seen some good and bad times of the both graphic players. They both managed to survive.
There might be a new GTO in a few weeks but we are still working to confirm its existence. Or not. µ
