nVidia confirms decrease in price GT200

About a month ago, it was reported that nVidia would be cutting the recommended prices on their GeForce GTX 260 and 280 cards soon.

Guru 3D got an email from nVidia that officially confirms the decrease in price for the concerned models.

Hi!

Just in case you haven't seen the new prices, the GeForce GTX 280 and 260 are now available from a variety of our partners at the following prices

• The GeForce GTX 280 is available for $499.
• The GeForce GTX 260 is available for $299.

With support for 2- and 3-way SLI, these two products feature best-in-class features, performance, and power. In addition, applications such as Elemental Technologies' Badaboom! will offer dramatic time savings by offloading transcoding from the CPU to the GeForce GPU. And, when you factor in support for GeForce PhysX, which can accelerate physics effects directly on the GPU, gaming will soon become more interactive and immersive than ever.

These prices went into effect several days ago, and we just wanted to make sure you were aware.

Please let us know if you have any questions.
