Interesting article... imho this is a result of the merger between AMD and ATI

AMD's products are so much better and cheaper than expected that Nvidia is seeing pricing pressure.. In the past six weeks, prices of graphics cards for personal computers with Nvidia's 9800GTX chip have dropped to $200 from as much as $275,


also, they screwed up a laptop chip so be careful if you're in the market..

Nvidia will also incur expenses of as much as $200 million because of a defect in some laptop chips.. The problem with the laptop chip was caused by packaging material, Nvidia said. The company must pay repair, return, replacement and warranty costs. Nvidia has been trying to reduce manufacturing expenses to boost profitability.
