THe 7800 series will go up in price, NVidia wants to make a statement and give the gotta haves an opportunity to show how powerful it truely is and that it's not just another slight upgrade so they can show-up and step on ATI!

Yup...that's the reason for the "inflated" prices of the GT and Ultra...no AGP counterpart in the 7800's yet, although they will be making them eventually (but when that will be is anybody's guess)
