Pricing, Availability and Support
The official pricing for GTX 960 is US $199 with the RRP for the EVGA SSC being US$209. In retrospect the GTX 760 launched as US $249 and GTX 660 at US229. The base price and the overclock markup is fine, but NVIDIA does not issue regional RRPs and as of time of writing some exchange rates are low meaning more expensive cards in some regions.
