ATI and NVIDIA Video Cards: Price Changes

The following chart takes all of the tracked AMD and NVIDIA cards, and incorporates it into one monster price list, that is then sorted by the monthly price change. This gives us a slightly different view than in previous AMD and NVIDIA lists, as it identifies the month's biggest movers and shakers, and can really help identify the areas to take advantage of. When used with the other price charts, this list can add another dimension to the monthly video card prices, but keep in mind that the largest cuts may not translate into the best overall deal.

The overall price change list simply confirms our findings in the individual video card charts and commentary. The pricing results definitely show an advantage for the NVIDIA contingent, and even discounting the bizarre $316 drop to the GeForce 8800 Ultra 768MB, the GeForce 9800 GX2 1GB showed a real triple-digit decrease, and GeForce-based cards still held down seven of the top ten positions. The best ATI could do was $40 off their previous flagship Radeon HD 3870 X2 1GB, along with contributing the only two price increases to hit double digits.
