We all knew this was coming after the thrashing that GTX 680 gave to AMD's inferior gaming cards ...

Too bad Nvidia is still forgetting about us and no mining card STILL :'(

Yeah.  I can't believe how many "nerds" are in a mining hardware sub-forum on a crypto-currency forum   ::)

...that's like having rednecks on a farming forum

...or women on a scrapbooking forum.


The nerve...

I wonder if these price cuts will affect the 7990s release price as well.

Doubt it. The 7990 will be the top card until NVIDIA releases either a larger monolithic die or a GTX 690 or w/e with a pair of GTX 680 dies. Top card receives a top price and bows to nobody.
