My guess is the 3000 series will be in the range of 680-700 ringgit for it to be competitively priced compared to nvidia. Performance is smacked in between 8800gts and 8800gt.


Either way 8800gts is going to be very cheap soon.

when i mention gts i'm refering to the 320mb version.
However at 1600X1200 obviously all the textures, frame memory everything requires more memory and that's why the 640mb would have the edge here.

Anyway the isn't 640mb 8800gts at another higher price league already?

so we have preliminary performance which is roughly +/- 5% 8800gt performance right?

So based on the pricing in December we would have the winner.

then after 8800gt overclock, who will win?

It's pointless comparing overclocked vs overclocked.
It should be stock vs stock.


If ATI can price it 50USD cheaper than Nvidia 8800gt, it will steal the best price/performance crown from Nvidia.

Ok at what price do you think the 3870 would beat 8800gt in price /performance ratio.

FOr me it's around RM650

I still think it's still expensive comparing bulk 8800gt price vs bulk HD8370 price. I find it strange that ATI is pricing their products higher than 8800gt.

Hear that 8800gt 256mb is faster than 3870 and 3850 at lower resolutions and now it's selling below 600 at bulk sales.

So is ATI closing their shop?
