I would think that's because try to get rid of them 7800GT/7800GTX/7900/7900GTX cores.... I think they should come out with a new gen card by June-ish....
Anyways at $300 there's no way I can say NO to a 7900GT especially one that's clocked at 500/1500 - it'll probably do 550/1650 easy.... and it's got the same # of ps/vs as the 7800GTX..... err.... WTF is right
