NVIDIA Geforce GTX 280 listed at €575

@ 2008/06/10

The first retailer has listed Nvidia's new GTX 280 and thanks to this early bird we now have a general idea about GTX 280 pricing. Unfortunately, the retailer wasn't kind enough to show some specs or even the picture of the card, so we have to wait a bit longer to see those.

The listed card comes from Asus, and the full name of it is ENGTX280/HTDP/1G GTX280 CTLR1GB DDR3 PCI-E DVI-IX2 HDTV. As mentioned, the price stands at €574,94, but bear in mind that this is the first price that we have seen, and that this retailer isn't the cheapest one around.

As I heard the drivers for the GTX 280 are not quite finished yet, so it will perform better in a while also.

Next to that Im hoping to see a glymph of the Physics engine at Age of Conan, and future released games ^_^

I still think its worth the money for a high end card like this

9800GX2 offers better performance for lower price up to 1920x1200

Well I heard the import price is 500 euro for distrubutors atm, and that they dont expect the price to fall below 450 anytime soon.

Next to that I just couldnt wait :P
