As announce earlier http://forums.techarena.in/web-news-trends/1094655.htm, on 18 January, in addition to the announcement of new models, Intel will lower the price of several of its current processors so as not to facilitate the expansion of AMD Phenom II which has just been launched.
Thus, among other cuts, it is noted that the Core 2 Quad Q9550 and Q9400, which are the main rivals of the Phenom X4 II 920 and 940 respectively spend $ 317 and $ 268 to $ 268 and $ 219 per 1,000 units.
To recall, the two new babies AMD were announced at $ 278 and $ 238. This announcement should not rob the smelter which had put forward the performance / price of its processors to convince users.
The upper and lower models will not be forgotten because:
- The Q9650 will moved from $ 525 to $ 317
- The Q8300 will moved $ 219 to $ 187
- The Q8200 will moved from $ 199 to $ 167
According to our information, these rates are not yet implemented, and we should see these new processors fall soon.
