The new cards simply blow it away in all the benchmarks that I have seen. But the price (even on the 4x's) is not dropping on the 4600 - at least not much. Anyone know why?

Simple: they're expensive to manufacture, if they're made at all. The stores are full of them, and have paid full price; they need to get rid of them without making too much of a loss...
We have some left, and sell them at a discount - you might want to look around a bit for such options.
But I'd *still* go for either a geforce FX or a Radeon chipset - it's better for future DirextX 9 games.
