Did you see the x1650xt from ati on newegg? It costs 250 thats the same price as the x1950xt from sapphire.
Heres the x1650xt
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814195035
And heres the x1950xt
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102067
It's only 51 cents more with shipping, I hope no noob is stupid enough to buy it over the x1950xt since the x1650xt has "24 pipes" and the x1950xt has so called "16 pipes"
So heres my question, Why are ati manufactured cards so much more expensive?

If someone buys that, then thats what he deserves.

I once saw an X1900XT for 950$ at Circuit City..
And i just dont freaking understand how that happens!!
I mean, in a store, u check prices accordingly and u monitor them closely.. how can u have a product that costs 3 times what it should?
Its like the internet isnt important to them, and they write down 950$ on purpose!

No one.
I dont know who enters that price (probably autimated).
I dont know who watches over it.
And i dont know how they can call themselves a store acting like that..

Heres another.
Im starting to think that sites raise the prices on purpose when the product isnt in stock, inorder to stop ppl from ordering it.. I heard it somewhere but it sound stupid (why not take it down instead).
