The price of the 9800 GTX is now just under £100.
The 280(s) are selling from £315, for around 600mhz, to £385, for about 670mhz. Tho the different manufacturers are scaling differently through their ranges.
It was said well b4 the cards came out that the £435 or so would drop by £50 or so as quick as a few weeks after release.
The slower clocked cards are cheaper, but I don`t see anything different than was previously planned.

in the states, multiple manufacturers are now selling the gtx280 for less than $500. in fact, msi has one overclocked to 650 mhz thats going for $499 on newegg right now. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127360
the ati stuff is impressive, but im still going nvidia. too many friends have had too many problems with games not jiving with their crossfire setup.

Buying 2x GTX 280's but Im stumped as to which MObo and which RAM to go for to cope with 2-Sli (and maybe with room for expanding to 3 -sli Configs at a later date.
Would appreciate any suggestions as to the latest tested Mobos that work with Sli, I have read so many mixed reviews, blackops, EVGA nforce 970 Ultra, ASUS P5N32-E SLI Plus?? which chipset should I be looking for? Hope u dont mind me posting this in this forum, uhm er..
anyway more relevantly- Im choosing nVidia as the GTX 280's are so cheap right now and 2 for 526.38 inc vat!
ofc they aren't clocked at all yet, not sure if I can so that myself in the bios of the Mobo, or if I should buy they pre Overclocked.. meh too many decisions..
