Upcoming Intel’s Price Splash: 40% Price Cut to Core 2

HKEPC Hardware - IT News

Too bad it's planned as late as 2007 Q2 when AMD's first AM2+ (K8L) cpus are planned for Q3 2007, but E4300 @ around $100 is gonna be a nice deal for overclockers tho.

Yes.

Sounds sweet. I'll take this opportunity to get rid of AGP8x once and for all, though I could do without the silent TC chip in the latest motherboards.

The funny thing is when the price cuts come, they will probably be followed by some new CPU announcement, so the people waiting for the price cut will suddenly want to wait for the new CPUs. And then when the new CPUs come out they will be followed by price cuts, so those people will want to wait for the price cuts.

Read that over and over, and you see the problem we've faced since the 90's.
