Newegg Pricing Information Now Available

Newegg!As of this morning, you can now get accurate pricing information right inline with all our usual retail card information on card pages. I know what you're thinking "oh god more ads", but no! This will be different! Instead of pricegrabber pricing engines or banner ads or other forms of advertising that I consider less-than-helpful, I've simply gone out to Newegg.com and cross-referenced their inventory with my database of retail video cards.

The overall result of this is nice, clean integration of pricing information with the GPUReview.com database. No big banner ads, no pricing for whatever the major e-tailers are pushing this week (am I the only one sick of ads for the 6800 XT?). All you'll see is the price of the cards you are looking at and nothing more. And if you click the link, it takes you straight to the page on Newegg's site to buy the card.

I hope you can all see the lengths I'm going to to ensure that GPUReview stays as helpful as possible and doesn't 'sell out'. If all goes well with Newegg, I'll be adding more retailers soon along with other features to help you all find the best video card prices on the web.

Please take a look at the new pricing info on any of our card pages and send me some feedback over on the Contact Page.

It looks sweet! Would it be possible to get the readout sorted by price by making the Price label clickable? If we need more room we could do two things I think. Get rid of the Mhz labels on the Core and Memory speeds and use a smaller pic for the card pictures link.

Hey I am looking at the 8800 GTX page. The only price that reflects a mail in rebate is the BFG price and it is not 100% accurate either. The link says 544.76 and it is 549.99 after rebate. Other cards that have a rebate are evga, leadtek, foxconn, msi, and xfx. If all the prices on our site are shown with no rebates, that is fine but I would love the prices to be shown including any rebate.

The prices come straight from an XML file I get from newegg. I dunno how to go about checking for rebates. And I agree we should be able to sort them by price. This is only the first step with this stuff...more to come.
