ati radeon 4870 x2 prices?

[dmxdex2020]

Are they likely to come down again at the end of feb by any chance?

Unlikely, hard to say for sure tho.

They don't really need to. If NVidia were to drop prices on the GTX295, then ATI might follow suit just to pee in their cornflakes, but at the moment the 4870X2 are competitively priced.

Doubt it, they are already about £100 cheaper than the 295, so theres no need for them to come down in price.

Yup absoloutely no reason to. There is also absoloutely no reason for ATi to release a refresh or a new card anytime soon IMO.

Plus with all the job cuts etc at AMD, I'd imagine they are wanting to keep hidden for a while and with the 4870X2 in the nice place it is at the moment it's a nice little cash cow for them without having to throw another card out into the works.
