ATI crashes prices on "new" X1600
 

ATI ISSUED a cheerful press release which publicly claimed a heavy price reduction on the new X1600 series. As of now, the new Radeon X1600XT with 256 Megs of GDDR-3 video memory is priced at $179 or Euro, down from $249/Euro.
This is a big dent in price and lowering itself under Nvidia's radar named 6800GS, which demolished the Red Team's board in previous reviews.

Now, the product is somewhat equally priced to GeForce 6600GT with 256 Megs of GDDR-3 memory, which are rare as hen's teeth. However, we hear news of Nvidia's new MSRP of $199/Euro for its 6800GS, in both AGP and PCIe version, whenever the AGP version arrives.

The lower part of mainstream market is covered by the new Radeon X1600Pro, which is available for 129 dollars/Euros if the model is equipped with 256MB of DDR-II memory.

If you're wondering why we keep using the NEW in front of every X1600, there wouldn't be a bit of a difference if there wasn't a small quote hidden inside the press release:

"The new Radeon X1600 XT also features 256-bit ring-bus memory controller and support for up to 512 MB of RAM."

So folks, if you have bought the 128-bit Radeon X1600 product, you're free to yank like a donkey.

X1600XT=>6K 初頭 :eek:

X1600pro=>4.5K左右 :eek: (不知道X1300pro的價格又如何?)

6800GS=>7K以下 :eek:

不過台灣的價格........... :ase

就算X1600Pro真的賣4.5K也不是6600GT的對手,二線廠的6600GT都這個價了

PS:除非4K以下,但..可能嗎?

上次好像有看到個大大說X1600pro在大陸賣3K!!!!!!!!!

不知情報是真是假?

不管怎麼樣

這樣降價還是提升了X1600系列的競爭力

尤其是X1600XT 256bit

原本想入手X1600XT的　不過看到測試報告後 :jolin: 　
這東西簡直是還沒出來　就被同階的打好玩的 :flash:
就算要殺價　有這本錢殺嗎 :flash:

X1600XT不是小贏6600GT？

降價是好事....但是台灣享不享受的到又是另外一回事 :jolin:

應該說:被同價格打好玩的吧

上面已經說過會降價了啊，INQ會騙人嗎?;)

要買還是等他降到更低(RV560出了之後)，或是等RV560吧(不過可能超貴!成本..........)

但是6600GT是NV上一代的中階阿 :jolin:　ATI搞了新一代的居然只有小贏　
唉∼等明年吧　快看不下去了 :think:

哪時後會出x1600xt
是明年嗎？

INQ 不是出了名的謠指部嗎?

雖然國外的報導是講說降價了...

不過 台灣的價格沒出來 還真的是都不能定論>"<

ATi的X1600系列 好像沒有太大的吸引力..反而是最近覺得6800GS的吸引力很大..價格在7K左右
