7800 XT is 475 USD in Germany (540€ after VAT)
The 7900 GRE actually got 10% SLOWER memory than the 7800 XT, but more cores. 5% faster and 0-10% more efficient than the 7800 XT.
At 720€ (635 USD) it's very overpriced.
Do they actually use different memory or just clocked down? If the memory chips are identical hypothetically you can just overclock them.
I checked the vbios on techpowerup and it's using the same memory ic, so appears to be an artificial BIOS limit.
