One could argue that this pricing is after conversion since the Euro is stronger than the dollar the product should naturally cost less Euros as compared to United states Dollars. Yet nosotros tin clearly see at the aforementioned retailer GTX 770 and GTX 760 cards listed for 330 Euros and 250 Euros respectively which is the exact same pricing in USD at newegg for the same EVGA GTX 770 and 760 cards.
Electronics are ofttimes more than expensive in Europe almost entirely due to this reason. The majority of electronics sold at that place from the United states of america just comport the same US MSRP but in Euro.

There are no photos posted for either of these cards but it'due south quite possible that the listing for the Palit GTX 970 is really for a non-reference card. Which could explicate why it carries a nineteen€ premium. We don't know yet if nosotros're going to see custom GTX 980 cards at launch only nosotros know that there is a plethora of custom GTX 970 cards coming from MSI, Galaxy, Gigabyte, EVGA, Zotac and basically all Nvidia add-in board partners.

The pricing for the GTX 970 is very aggressive and will certainly not go unnoticed by AMD. And then await a whole slew of new toll cuts from the cherry squad beyond the board. I would not be surprised to run into the R9 290X come down to as low as $399 and the 290 for fifty-fifty lower. In fact we've already found a brand new R9 290X listed at amazon.com for $408 possibly this is a taste of what'southward to come. Stay tuned this GPU war is going to be a encarmine 1 !
