I never expected it to be cheap, but I suspect the website is possibly grossly overcharging, since at the moment they can!

I'd say you're spot on. Happens regularly with preorders.

Well actually if you go on the Swedish website, the R9 290X is 1191kr cheaper than the Titan. That's around $190. Not to mention it is supposed to perform the same/slightly better (Apparently). So I'd call that a significant undercut. The problem is that the Titan has always been too expensive, and a good GTX780 can get pretty close and those are a lot cheaper. Then again, people with that kind of money just want the best card they can get...

If this is true then the card is in the same price range as Titan.
Really disappointing.
