How much will 6600GT AGP fall to?

[OS]

Pricewatch says $180 for PCIe version. Will the AGP get to this price? How much cost does that bridge chip add?

You're supposed to be saving for your next car. 😛

I'm waiting for cards to drop too. 🙁

Seeing as suggested retail is 199 or something like that. I would say a month or less.

199 is for the pci-e version, the agp version will most likely cost at least 220-250 for the time being. Heck the bfg 6600gt oc is $264, pricey lil sob.

I saw somewhere that the bridge chip costs Nvidia $20 on each card.

I remember a blurb on INQ a while ago that said the bridge chip would only cost a couple bucks, 20 is more then a couple bucks imo.

Didn't notice was a quote from a pci-e 6600GT review. Thought they were stating about how much they would cost.

My mistake, it's $5, but that's still a nice chunk of change that adds to the cost of each card.
