If the GF100 cards come out and a price war starts, then yes, perhaps we'll see $450. But I'm expecting to see $500. :(

Why is price gouging still going on, I really need an upgrade right now (I've gone done to 720p per panel on newer games).

I would have payed the initial price but I had just bought my new monitors and was out of cash. (Budget Budget Budget)

Would this be the right cable for the DP to MiniDP?

or

I have The monoprice 32awg 6ft in the second link. Works perfect on my 5970 and my dell p2210.

Thanks for the reply! Just wanted to know if it was a reputable site with good stuff, just ordered 3 DP -> Mini DP cable in preparation for Eyefinity6.

Until large quantities of all the popular cards are sitting in the retailers warehouses and not shifting through as fast as they can be shipped in, there will be price gouging.

What annoys me is that prices fluctuate so much. I spotted a 5850 for £189 the other day (easily £25 cheaper than anywhere else) but I went back less than an hour later with intent to purchase, and it had gone up to £207. It wasn't in stock at either point, but it was supposed to only be a few days away. Now, for sub-£200, I was prepared to buy it, but £200 is my cutoff for a new card right now. e-tailer websites seem to have a click counter on them that automatically jacks the price up when people show interest in particular items...

Just a friendly warning - I would hold off purchasing stuff until you know whats in the box of the Eyefinity Edition.

Got the cables anyway Dave, and am hoping that the card comes out in the next 2 weeks or so. Because if I need to send them back, I can do it up to 3 weeks from the purchase date! Don't delay to much eh... :nudgenudge
