Anyone reckon the old 260s will see some cuts next week?

I am leaning towards the 4850 for price performance but ATI's drivers still scare me.

I would rather get a 260 for the extra mem too. I game at 1920x1200.
 
Yea, hopefully they should drop. There are some deals right now though if you cannot wait. Look on fatwallet and search "GTX 260". Currently, they have deals for around ~$200. But if you look at the older posts, there are some that are cheap going down to ~$160-170. There is a deal with a power supply, if you sold that total price for GTX 260 would be around ~170. I am also waiting for a deal and checking pretty much every hour. I am looking for EVGA branded GTX 260 only though....since other card manufacturers have a lot of problems (PNY). Happy deal searching :).
 
crossing my fingers for a price drop soon. dying to replace my aging X1950XT.
 
FWIW, I just got a 4850 and if I had it to do over, I'd get a 260 and I'd have spent the same money if you count the fans I had to buy to cool the 4850. :p
 
right now the GTX260 is hard to beat value wise. But I look for nvidia to hold the prices up on the 216 shader core models until they move some of this stock.
