Intel Cuts Chip Prices by up to 53 Percent

Most of the cuts are at the very high end of the line -- it'll be interesting to see what happens to the prices of the competing AMD offerings.

  2. and i'd just bought an athlon! by Matthew+Luckie · · Score: 1, Flamebait
    I just bought myself an athlon XP 1800+, and a day later i am regretting it. AMD markets these processors as 1800Mhz CPUs, when in actual fact they are just 1500Mhz CPUs.

    Intel clearly labels the P4 line with its true clock speed. No false advertising there! Just think that a P4 2.2Ghz machine is 50% faster than an athlon 1.5Ghz, now for the same price! Not only that, I don't have to worry about my heatsink falling off!
