It has been a very interesting couple of months in the GPU market with the emergence of new releases from the graphics card giants in this sector, ATI and NVIDIA. With the 9800GTX failing to live up to expectations and the 9800GX2 being ridiculously priced, NVIDIA sought to further increase its lead over ATI with the unleashing of its GTX200 series of GPU's. The new cards however had the traditional 'your card for a kidney' price tag with the flagship GTX280 costing an wallet crushing price well above £400. Even its little brother, the GTX260, cost in excess of £300 which in days gone by would have easily purchased you a flagship model so it was with no surprise, enthusiasts were slow to take advantage of the new technologies on offer.
