It is rumored that the Geforce GTX 260 is get $30 shaved of it's current pricing. That would set the product pricetag at roughly $199. Last week, AMD at the virge of the Geforce GTS 250 release introed price cuts on its Radeon 4800 series products. The price cuts from AMD pitted the 4870 512MB against the GTS 250 1GB sku, a match up easily in AMD's favor while also dropping the price of the 4870 1GB sku to $199.
Now Nvidia seems to be reacting and positioning the GTX 260 directly against the 4870 1GB. And guys .. at 199 USD, that's a lot of bang for buck alright.
