That seems high, are you sure that wasn't for one of the higher clocked models? I built my PC in 2004, and according to this article, the lower end models were $170.

I can't quite remember what I paid, I feel like it was less than that, though. I might've gotten it on sale from Tigerdirect.

Accounting for inflation that is probably still a bit high.

    I forget which site I found that from, but it seemed in line with the other articles I dug up with the same search. It's entirely possible that I accidentally found a higher-range model rather than the discount one. Also possible that it was much cheaper the following year, since things were moving pretty quick back then. All I specifically remember from that era was buying an AMD Thunderbird from TigerDirect in 2001 for $99.
