In its rush to flood the video card market with a new mid-range card aimed at nullifying any new AMD/ATI release, Nvidia seems to have unintentionally dug itself a very expensive hole. Team Green is allegedly sitting on a stockpile of around 1.5 million 8600 GT cards, and is determined to move the outdated technology as quickly as possible. Nvidia's newest mid-range card, the 9600 GT, is selling very well; plus, the company needs to clear shelf space for the soon-to-be released 9500 cards - so Nvidia's problem may be the beginning of a perfect storm for consumers looking for a solid HTPC card or a budget SLI gaming setup. Keep your eyes on e-tailers in the coming weeks for potentially stunning price drops.
