Well, this is the second time I asked this question to you guys about a video card and its pricing....

At what price would you consider purchasing the above card? (Its our item code 190666) Your input is important to us, as well, you're the guys that buy these types of cards.

Also, how many of you are waiting for the Crossfire to come out?

AGP part sells for < $ 500. PCI-E are above $ 500.

Some stores are offering AIW X800XT's for < $ 400, an impossible deal to beat.

I'll wait for the new cards..

Evil-bay has them for ~$425-$500 for a new one. I'd say if you can price it around $450-$475 than you'd probably have a lot of business.

I'm anticipating R520 more than I am Crossfire, although I am looking forward to that too.

I dont think any current generation card should cost more than $375US right now (since the performance practially hasn't changed for 10 months since 6800U and x800xt pe). Even x800xl is almost as good as x850xt pe and it costs $260 for PCIe. With new cards about 1 month away, the most I'd pay for X850xt pe now is $375; 1 month from now $250. Crossfire isn't important with current generation cards since 1 G70 or 1 R520 should be faster and cheaper.

I think $475 to $500 sounds about right. I am indeed waiting for R520 and Crossfire.
