[QUOTE="horgen123"][QUOTE="NEWMAHAY"][QUOTE="MonsieurX"] So,remove ~70$ for standard edition? That would be my guess. I see the standard edition between 600-650 dollars. Still too much if you ask me. The whole flagship being over 600 dollars started this year. It was always around the 500 dollar mark before.
$729? Out of your mind AMD. What, did you hire the whole NVIDIA marketing department? I paid $550 for my EVGA 780, and that's even a bit high. Two 7970's with do, ens of free games makes so much more sense you'd be an idiot buying the 290, imo.

Blame Nvdia and their dumb fans. Well, we'll see how many "dumb" fans AMD has. NVIDIA will drop the price of the 780, making the purchase of 290 that much more difficult. In a way, nvidia will be playing AMD's game now if they're smart. The consumer is ALLWAYS to blame. No one is forcing you to buy anything at any given price. And if you do, that has an effect on the market.
not really a bad price....what do people expect? If this card has similar/greater performance than a titan and has features it doesn't which are useful for workstation cards such as the large memory bandwidth and the gpgpu compute, then the price is very fair. But I haven't seen any benchmarks yet so i'll reserve judgement till then.

That's not true at all. The 8800GTX and 8800 Ultra were $600+ cards. GTX 280 was $649 at launch. Almost every high-end dual-gpu card has been over $600 at launch.

Talk about extreme bait and switch/damage control.
You always whine that nvidia is scum for releasing $600+ cards and bragged that the highend volcanic island card would easily beat the Titan for less price than the 780 and now your crying "buh buh what do you guys expect ?" the momenet a $600-700 price tag gets rumord :lol:
