It is a common knowledge that 9600GT’s target rival is ATI’s Radeon HD3850. They have a quite similar price range. (because the price differs in different countries, so price discussion in this article will only use newegg price). But now many companies are going to release 9600GT 256MB, pushing G96’s price to the limit.

For now, lowest HD 3850 256MB price is at 154USD, and GeForce 9600GT 512MB is 150USD. The upcoming 9600GT 256MB may lower the price limit to as low as 130USD. Before any specification on AMD’s future pricing tactic on HD 3850 or HD 3830, let’s have a close look at the 9600GT 256MB.
