March Video Card Price Guide - Page 4By SharkyExtreme.com Staff March 31, 2008Our 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 X1600 Pro/XT, Radeon X800 GTO, Radeon X180 GTO, and GeForce 6600 GT, 6800 GS & 7600 GT, along with a few higher-end products that have been replaced at the top of the food chain (like the Radeon X800/X850), and have then dropped in price. The mainstream video card list is usually where we see a few noticeable price drops mixed in with some high-end cards falling below the $200 mark and entering the chart. The last few months have been very slim for high-end models dropping into the chart, but things picked up in March. Four new members joined this month, including the GeForce 8800 GTS 320MB, Radeon HD 3870 512MB, GeForce 7950 GT 512MB, and GeForce 9600 GT 1GB video cards. These also look very good from a performance point of view, as the GeForce 8800 GTS 320MB is an excellent value, while the Radeon HD 3870 512MB and GeForce 9600 GT 512MB/1GB also offer excellent price-performance. Lower-cost options include the very impressive Radeon HD 3850 256MB and 512MB cards.
