*) DX11 is not getting interesting for a few months ----> expect even more price drops. Dont tell me graphics cards get more expensive....usually they DONT
*) You will laugh, but i really started to <3 CUDA on my 275, and together with lack of "3d Vision" i think the lack of CUDA seriously sucks for the ATI cards.
I just encoded a few videos to H264 with 60-70 FPS, about 20x speed of normal CPU based encoding..it just fricking rocks. There is still potential since CUDA development/support is still in early stages...would just hate to get a new DX11 ATI card and not have CUDA ;(
(I know there is an ATI equivalent...but i dont know how many codecs/apps support this)

$399 is not cheap, it was suppose to be $299, but AMD wanted to price gouge, screw you AMD.
no, $600 for gtx 280 was gouging. quadrupling the price of lumber after a hurricane is gouging. bumping your price up 25 % because you're at or near the top in performance, you have a low supply, and your competition is fiddling with physix is just good business. If you want to see gouging wait for nvidia's next 8800gtx-type release.
