March 2005 Video Card Price Guide - Page 4

By SharkyExtreme.com Staff March 4, 2005

Mainstream Video Cards

Our 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 X700 Pro and GeForce 6600 and 6600GT, 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 noticeable price drops mixed in with a few high-end cards dropping below the $200 mark and entering the mainstream market. This month certainly doesn't disappoint, as we see the MSI GeForce 6600GT 128MB AGP (-$17) and ASUS GeForce PCX 5900 128MB PCIe (-$10) dropping into the mainstream chart. Unfortunately, these also represent most of the larger price cuts, and there is very little activity in the majority of listings. Even worse are the price increases hitting cards like the ATI AiW Radeon 9600XT 128MB (+$15), ATI AiW Radeon 9700 Pro 128MB (+$15), and XFX GeForce 6600 256MB PCIe (+$11).
