Nvidia Slashes Pricing of Graphics Cards Dramatically

Just days before AMD's next-generation Radeon HD 6800-series graphics cards hit the market, Nvidia Corp. slashed pricing of its performance-mainstream and high-end graphics boards rather dramatically so to keep their sales going despite of potentially strong offerings by the arch-rival.

Starting this week, the suggested etail pricing (SEP) of Nvidia's popular graphics boards will be as follows:

* GeForce GTX 460 768MB - $169.99
* GeForce GTX 460 1GB - $199.99
* GeForce GTX 470 1280MB - $259.99

The price decreases from Nvidia are quite dramatic to say at least since the graphics boards got $30 and $90 discounts, something completely unimaginable, which is very good for consumers in search for performance mainstream graphics cards.
