Bad pricing much?

Just randomly browsed through the norwegian store Komplett.no when I stumbled upon the pricing for Asus 780 cards.

Can someone explain to me why the Strix GPU is so much less expensive then the DCU2 and the Matrix? It's got twice the memory and is more powerful in general or am I completely wrong here?

 

If someone is wondering what the prices for the 3 different cards this is the price converted to USD and Euros.

 

DCU2: Euros: 688/USD: 935.

 

Strix: Euros: 593/USD: 806.

 

Matrix: Euros: 756/USD: 1032.

 

Anyone got an answer?

 

EDIT: Oh, + the Strix is a newer GPU design so yeah...
