You are trying to complicate a simple issue which is if GPU manufactures keep rising prices like they are then that's like telling nvidia directly it's ok and then nvidia will charge even more because consumers are telling them it's ok to overcharge buy spending there money on them. I never mentioned anything about nvidias high end card I said nvidia is gouging people on there mid range cards.
Launch pricing nvidia (MID RANGE)
GTX 660ti $300
GTX 560ti $250
GTX 460 $229
No you are oversimplifying something that is not simple and pretending it makes it a trend. Each of those cards launched with a very different performance relative to the other cards in the market. Just going simple 560 Ti vs 660 Ti. The 660 Ti is 20% slower than the 680 and it's based on the same chip, you get 80% of the performance for 60% of the price. The 560 Ti was 40% slower than 580 and based on a smaller chip, you got 60% of performance for 50% the price. It's a completely different animal. The real mid-range the non-Ti 660 based on the smaller GK106 will launch soon and for $250 or less.
EDIT: I also fixed the launch pricing BTW.
