April Video Card Price Guide - Page 3By SharkyExtreme.com Staff April 21, 2006We designate the entry-level market as video cards that have a street price of under $100. These cards are targeted at value-system buyers, and we usually don't find the high-performance hardware at this price range. Of course, that doesn't mean that gaming performance or features have to suffer, and only having a C-Note in your pocket is no reason to start looking in the bargain bins. Each month we usually welcome a new entrant or two into the entry-level video card list, but in April, we failed to get a new card to drop below the $100 level. This is very strange behavior and it's very rare that we're not welcoming a new entry-level card into the chart. Then again, the pricing activity is definitely centered on the high-end this month, and there was only one double-digit cut to be found in the entire entry-level chart. There is some good news in the fact that there is a pack of cards in the $104-$106 range, ranging from the Radeon X700 Pro to the X1600 Pro, that are just itching to drop in for May.
