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.
While the ATI chart was jumping with higher prices, the NVIDIA video cards were moving in the opposite direction. In fact, it has been a very good month for NVIDIA buyers, and the aggregate chart drop of $214 just cements that opinion. There was a total of thirteen double-digit price cuts, with the MSI GeForce 7900 GTX 512MB (-$80), ASUS GeForce 7600 GT Silent 256MB (-$35), and GeForce 6600GT 128MB (-$33) being the largest of the bunch. There were also a few price increases that reached similar levels, but their number was lower, and the dollar amounts dropped off as well. The largest was a $45 price jump to the Gigabyte DUAL GeForce 6600 card, but after that it dropped down considerably to the PNY GeForce 7900 GS 256MB (+$23) and PNY GeForce 7900 GT 256MB (+$12) cards.
