January Video Card Price Guide - Page 4By SharkyExtreme.com Staff January 5, 2005Our definition of mainstream video cards encompasses the $100-$199 price range, and is really where you'll get the most bang for your buck. This is where you will find the latest mainstream video cards, like the Radeon 9600XT and GeForce 6800, along with a few higher-end products that have been replaced at the top of the food chain, and have then dropped in price. The mainstream video card list is usually where we see some noticeable price drops mixed in with a few high-end cards dropping below the $200 mark and entering the mainstream market. This month is a bit more sedate, as only the ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB OEM managed to squeak down into this chart, and there were only a few double-digit price cuts. For PCI Express buyers, the NVIDIA GeForce 6600 GT 128MB is definitely the place to be, although the AGP versions are still languishing at over $200. For AGP buyers, the GeForce FX 5900XT 128MB still offers the best overall value, but the Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB OEM is a very close contender.
