Found off Slickdeals.
Looks like ATI responded pretty fast to the 7900 launch.
If that weren't after rabate, I'de be all over it.
Rebate form expires 3/15.

Wow, $400AR... I woulda bought it and used it at that price... NO JOKE!

But... do'nt think this is "ATI Answering"... I thought that the vendors decide the pricing... lol. How could ATI answer same day the 7900 launched? They'd have to sell more to the vendors at a cheaper price, but that doesn't mean that the stock that vendors currently have were bought cheap.

Basically, the vendors are doing the price drops now. There's no way ATI sold another batch of cards to a vendor the same day and had it shipped to them the same day, stocked, and all...

that's what i thought at beginning, so i asked the rep to repeat the name again. for sure it's micro center or micro something. it's definitely not monarch computer, cuz i ask him that's the store and he said no. but the charge did match my order price. so i m going to wait and see tomorrow.
