What Yewen is saying.. is that if you wait much longer the prices might not be the same. They might even be more...

course hes gonna say that lol
Nothing like that.
Nvidia are just working really hard to beat ATI at every level, it is working.
And that's the best thing of competing manufactures putting real effort into actually competing which does not happen enough in this sector.

So when will the 285's and 295's be listed?
OcUK said that they worked some Magic to get the price lower than what they would have normally been discounted at.
256MB Power Color Radeon X1800 XL, PCI-E (x16), 1000MHz GDDR3, GPU 500MHz, 16 Cores, VIVO £195.49
even today and that is not from a little shop. So its not always true that it will be cheaper all over.

Be mad to buy a 4870 1gb now to.
It will surely be on offer at OCUK sooner rather than later
(512 is below 170, 1gb for below 190 elsewere)
Mmmm, does this mean that the 260 will be the new middle of the pack card a'la 8800GT ? *Mad Speculation*
Well, this really does toss it up for me, as had my heart pretty much converted to a 4870 1GB at some point in the future. Now ~im thinking that I will get to stay Nvidia now.

can you imagine what the price would have been like with a dollar rate of around $2 to £1?
They might have been @ 4870 price! lol
