ATI raises retail price on Radeon X1800 XT? - tech
(hx) 11:28 PM CET - Nov,08 2005 - Post a comment
The Inquirer is reporting that ATI's 512MB Radeon X1800 XT card will retail at $599, rather than its initially publicized $549 MSRP. Newegg has the card listed at the $599 price, but none are actually shown as being in stock. The X1800XT, according to a recent ATI memo making the rounds, is now $599, and according to one dealer 'no one can go below that'. Since supply is so tight, you can be pretty well assured that no one will risk allocation by going low.

In some rather unrelated news, Radeon X1600 and X1300 CrossFire won't require a master card. It appears that ATI will release a new driver soon that enables Crossfire over the PCIe bus on Radeon X1300 and X1600 video cards - eliminating the need for dedicated master cards. New drivers will apparently allow CrossFire to operate over the PCI Express bus, although high-end Radeons (X850 and X1800) will still require a master card. There's no word on how much running CrossFire over only the PCI-E bus will impact performance, but for mid-range and low-end markets, the flexibility of a master card-less design may be more desirable. Radeon X1600 is still not expected to hit channel shelves until December.
