For $499 I just might get a 780.
Anybody got $499 I can borrow?

This is great news. I wonder if we'll see even cheaper prices on Black Friday or Cyber Monday?
I was thinking of getting a GTX 780 until EarthDog mentioned that he couldn't go ultra on Crysis 3 -- although he didn't mention what resolution he was running at. I haven't gone green since the GeForce 2/GTS.

HOLY COW! So now that just screwed up my plan..... Was going to get a r9-280x or maybe a r9-290. But FINALLY the gtx 770 is in my price budget and it comes with some fricken GREAT games. I'm a current AMD fan but wanted to get a nVIDIA if i could afford it.

I will expect AMD will respond with another price drop of some kind maybe not 150$ but probably 50$ or so to match nvidia's 780.
I assume they will leave the 280x where it is though and then quickly release another "AMD NEVER SETTLE FOREVER" Gaming bundle with more games to counter the value added on these nvidia cards.
I will wait abit longer and see but this has also changed my thought process aswell i may buy a 780 if the 290x stays around 550+$ or the 590$ its currently at in canadian retailers which is total bs tbh because the 780GTX Nvidia cards are also $499 here and one is onsale for $480.
You should have known they would drop though the 780 prices were obviously gouging and unrealistic the prices would have dropped 5hrs after you bought your card if amd had released theirs that day.This makes me so sad, just got a 780 about 2 months ago
Its a lesson to people , Don't buy overpriced poop from computer hardware companies.

So I guess they just admitted they have been over charging?
I've been leaning towards AMD for my BF4/COD upgrade but at least this gives me options...

I never thought about it that way. I wonder if Nvidia has already more than broke even on the R&D costs for developing the GK110?
Agreed, but I also say, "And?". Its a for profit organization. I would expect nothing less and garner no ill will for the move.So I guess they just admitted they have been over charging?

A GTX 780 is not poop.
Overpriced? Yes. It was. $499 is reasonable though.
lol its all poop after a year or two how much you got fleeced for is proportionately equal to how bad you will feel at that time
.and it was a figure of speech i just didn't want to use the other word in respect for ocf.
kinda like "i have all this old computer _____ in my basement"
