The NVIDIA-based video card market is a bit more splintered than the ATI one, and we still have the older GeForce cards available at street level, and competing at the entry-level and mainstream sectors. Naturally, the GeForce 6 and 7 Series lines receive a greater number of listings, and especially as we move to the popular GeForce 6600/6800 and GeForce 7600/7800/7900 levels. NVIDIA gets the same overall coverage as the ATI list, starting at the GeForce FX and ending with the powerful GeForce 7900 GTX 512MB and GeForce 7950 GX2 1GB cards. But just like ATI, there are some NVIDIA cards that are becoming increasingly hard to locate, and we continue to adjust our list accordingly.
If the ATI chart was stable, then the NVIDIA side is even more sedate. The aggregate NVIDIA chart drop only totaled a measly $78 compared to last month, and well off the $351 decrease we posted in our August guide. Part of the reason for the lackluster results on the NVIDIA side is the presence of so many newly-released models, like the GeForce 7300GT, 7900 GS and 7950 GT cards. In terms of noticeable price drops, we have the ASUS GeForce 7900 GT TOP 256MB (-$36), ASUS GeForce 7900 GTX 512MB (-$23), and Gigabyte DUAL GeForce 6600 (-$19) posting the largest cuts of the month. There were also a few similar price increases, as the Gigabyte GeForce 7950 GX2 1GB jumped by $30 and the ASUS GeForce 7600 GT Silent 256MB and GeForce 6800 GS 256MB increased by $23 and $20, respectively.
