The Tech Report spotted AMD seems to be dropping the price of the Radeon HD 4870 X2 to fight off NVIDIA's new dual-GPU GeForce GTX 295 card:

Just as Nvidia prepares to introduce a new dual-GPU graphics card, AMD's dual-GPU Radeon HD 4870 X2 has coincidentally become a little more affordable—as long as you're willing to deal with a mail-in rebate, that is.

Newegg currently offers a Sapphire Radeon HD 4870 X2 for $449.99 with a $50 mail-in rebate, which takes the price down to $399.99 before shipping. The rebate form suggests that deal only applies to Newegg.com and Newegg.ca, though, and we haven't found similar offers at other online retailers.
