Seems funny with all these Nvidia price drops ,no one is writing an article about it? Just the one from Europe.

I mean the gtx 480 dropped 60$, gtx 470 90$. Mabe the price drop is being made for the upcomming full 384 sp gtx 475?. It would fit rather nice at 350$, right in between the 440$ 480 and 280$ 470. Rather nice gap to fill ha?

I thinks thats cause there hasn't been an announcement by nVidia. Like when AMD raised MSRP on the 5800 series or the recent 5830 price drop.

I guess NV overestimated the demand for PhysX, 3D vision, CUDA and underestimated the importance of price/performance/performance-per-watt ratio :rolleyes:

The demand was strong it seems for CUDA chips.

"For the year, 2009 came in above expectations with an 11% year to year growth, an amazing comeback. Q1 of 2010 showed traditional seasonal slowdown with everyone except Nvidia and SiS showing decline.

On a quarter-to-quarter basis Nvidia gained in the notebook integrated, and discrete segments as well as the desktop integrated segment.
"

If I'm reading that chart right, nearly half a billion graphic chips were sold last year. Too lazy to do the math on what % the 5xxx series is.

Or ATI were selling DX11 parts for $40 to $800 while NV were selling from $250 to $500.

This. Well, mostly this, 5830 to 5870 still probably outsold GTX 465 to GTX 480.

But I think when you add GTX 460 to the picture and the new lower Nvidia prices the picture will change. Unless ATI lowers their prices too.
