July 2004 Video Card Price Guide - Page 6By SharkyExtreme.com Staff July 31, 2004
The following chart takes all of the tracked ATI and NVIDIA cards, and incorporates it into one monster chart, that is then sorted by retail price. It's a very extensive list, which gives you all the pertinent price data, and all in one place. This is also a great way to view the data, and determine exactly where the cards stack up to each other, along with rating your budget against the gamut of available options. Video card price sorting was done previously in the high-end/mainstream/entry-level price lists, but we couldn't resist posting the entire video card selection, from top to bottom. The overall price chart simply gives a better view of the video card market, and while we're not seeing anything new in terms of pricing or value, it does make the individual "value points" much more obvious. The Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB is becoming an even better buy, and has firmly moved into the mainstream price range. Going a bit lower on the price list, we find the GeForce FX 5900XT for the lower-cost mainstream buyer, and the Radeon 9600SE ruling over the entry-level. The ultra high-end is also looking good, with the sub-$300 GeForce 6800 128MB becoming even more affordable, and the GeForce 6800 GT providing a ton of high-end performance for a lower-than 6800 Ultra price.
