The GeForce3 Ti 500 continues to fall in price although the ATI Radeon 8500 stays steady at an attractive $199 price point. We haven't seen any major driver updates from ATI since their last release during Comdex but we'd expect one heading into Q1 2002.

With Spring just around the corner, you may be better off waiting another couple of months before making a video card purchase if you really can wait.
