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 7 and 8 Series lines receive a greater number of listings, and especially as we move to the popular GeForce 7300/7600/7950 and GeForce 8800 levels. NVIDIA gets the same overall coverage as the ATI list, starting at the GeForce FX and ending with the powerful GeForce 7950 GT 512MB and GeForce 8800 GTS/GTX 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.
NVIDIA buyers are in much better shape than their ATI counterparts are, and the price activity was definitely in favor of the GeForce crowd. There is a wide selection of price drops, covering almost half of the chart, and among those are nine that hit double digits. Of these, the Gigabyte GeForce 8800 GTX 768MB (-$33), ASUS GeForce 8800 GTX 768MB (-$25), and GeForce 6800 GS 512MB (-$18) showed the greatest downward movement, and helped contribute to a good NVIDIA showing. There was higher priced activity at the other end of the chart, as four double-digit jumps included a $35 spike to the GeForce 6800 GS 256MB. In overall terms, the entire chart dropped by $90 in February, which is very different from the $215 aggregate decrease of January.
