This happens often. Also timing after a new graphics card is released. You really have to keep an eye out for certain online stores that start liquidating their supplies of the now older graphics cards. Right now they are getting rid of 800xt, 850xt and 6800 Geforces. When this next line comes out I would look for these types getting them cheap. Of course the 7800 will go down about $50 intially. However in the past some graphics cards have beaten the trend of lowering prices. The 9800 Pro is one of the best examples of a card that has maintained its value for a very long time.Ryan_Mercury wrote:
A few days after I bought my $400 graphics card, a better one came out and the price went down to like $300

First there are different types of memory of the same memory size.Ryan_Mercury wrote:
I got a question though, I know there's different kinds of memory, and some are better and the other, but mine is PC800 RDRAM, and a single 256MB module (4 slots on my board 533Mhz FSB, currently 2, 256 = 512), costs $150, which means another 512 for me to have 1GB of memory would cost me around $315, even with the coarsair select, so why is the one mentioned on that toms hardware site only $56 for 512MB of ram?
Is my current 512 performing much better than the average 512 or what? It does seem so, I've had excelent performance with my current system, even with BF2. And my system is 4 years old. I've only upgraded my 64MB nividia with a 6800 256 GT
