NVIDIA To Cut GeForce GTX 900 Series GPU Prices Permanently!

[eLucid]

A report published by TechPowerUp suggests NVIDIA will soon be cutting prices across their existing GeForce lineup, with potential price changes reaching consumers in time for the holiday shopping season.

 

So what does this report suggest? The GTX 980 drops to $449, the GTX 970 goes to $299, and the GTX 960 goes to $179. These are pretty consistent with some of the sale or post-rebate prices we’ve seen of late, and such a move would certainly even things up somewhat between AMD and NVIDIA with regard to cost. Of course, we could see an answer from AMD in the form of a price reduction from their R9 300-series or Fury/Nano. We can only hope!

 

We’ve already seen prices come down during various black Friday sales on several GPUs, but the potential for a permanent price cut makes for interesting speculation if nothing else. Not to disparage the source, but no substantive evidence exists to directly point to a plan by NVIDIA to lower their GPU prices for some 900-series cards, but it would make sense given their competition from AMD at various price points.

 

Here’s to lower prices going forward.

Did you watch the WAN show... 

[Agent181]

RIP AMD. NVIDIA just wants to get that shareholding price back from AMD that 0.8 percent I reckon if this is true. THe fight between a 970 and a 390 is going to be tougher now

Same for the GTX 970 most places.

AMD is still beating out Nvidia with the 380 and 390. And 390X/Fury for that matter.

If the 980 lowers in price it could be worth it over the 390x, assuming amd doesn't keep their holiday price cuts as well (like that will happen), but knowing the gpu maket nothing changes except we get cheaper GPUs which I like as both companies match their competitors prices and card tiers as it is.

I don't see Nvidia dropping the 980 down to $399 or even $429, and the R9 Fury has a justifiable $50 upgrade.
