Yet again, Intel does the dastardly deed with their price cuts just as AMD releases a new product.
Admittedly, this is due to percieved 'healthy' competition from AMD's products of course.

Still want to put together that AMD system right now.....?

Don't you just LOVE those new quad-core prices?

yuh know what does burn me, is not that they does drop price eh, is that is the minute i get a new system, < a week after they drop price or bring out a better part for same money...steups...Intel and nVidia have a thing with me, i feel they does hold board meetings to see how to f#$% with me...

hoss if you still on amd, hell on any old platform, and thinking of upgrading now is the time allyuh, check them prices in teh C2D and C2Q them is bess prices, doh stick...ESPECIALLY THE Q67 - THAT IS 1/2 OFF YO!

I think it should also be mention that it still remains to be seen what the actual retail values are however even so i don't think they gonna be too far off *crosses fingers*

I was wondering who woulda be cussing upon reading that this morning. I mean, you can argue AMD's case all you want, but damn,
these prices are just too good to ignore. There is nothing more left to say....

Geez ... WOW ... gasp!

Prices like that put my 5th place benchie rank in danger, especially when the man in 10th is only 1795 points off my score. Soon any noob*cough*CMR*cough could put a system together and overtake me..

AMD, you not leaving me much other viable choices beyond switching to Intel at this point. But i'll still clench my butt muscles hoping for a surprise by year end. If not...

*Kisses Q9450's and GeForce 9800GTX's hands...*

This is good news for us the consumer, I hope they drop the prices on their chipsets as well because X38/X48 is still at a RIDICULOUS price. So too are the Nvidia 690 and 7xx series mobos. Also intel doesn't have a particularly viable HTPC option atm.

Arcmanov · « **Reply #8 on:** April 27, 2008, 09:05:56 PM »

The E8400 finally shows itself...and the prices not that bad either.

Them Q9300 prices giving trouble though...especially when the prices lower on other sites.
I could definitely see one in my future though.

*calculates this month's OT*

Philosophical45 · « **Reply #9 on:** April 27, 2008, 09:45:43 PM »

i think i smell another upgrade meng.. but, would it be worth it, is it worth it now?... only time will tell

Arcmanov · « **Reply #10 on:** July 09, 2008, 11:52:09 PM »

Yep...more impending price cuts biatches.

Intel is in a comfortable place right now, price/performance-wise, so its almost like they doing what they
want with their prices. The Core 2 Duo lineup is so vast, I feel a bit sorry for AMD on the CPU front.
Intel is competing at every price point.

Saxito Pau · « **Reply #11 on:** July 10, 2008, 07:57:23 AM »

Ahhh. That is news I like to hear....

I can hold off a bit before 'restoring' my PC to is former glory.. well , better than former glory.

Arcmanov · « **Reply #12 on:** July 21, 2008, 11:04:24 PM »

Looks like that sub-200 dollar Q6600 might show up sooner than you think.

...and once the almighty Amazon have it at the new price, yuh done know it official.

Saxito Pau · « **Reply #13 on:** July 22, 2008, 01:29:46 AM »

oh, what to buy, what to buy?

So many great deals!!!

But my intended CPU costs just US$173

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #14 on:** July 22, 2008, 06:25:33 AM »

Oh yeah...this will be mine next month!!!

TriniXaeno · « **Reply #15 on:** July 22, 2008, 07:47:27 AM »

my chip getting cheap boy.

I still waiting for a 3ghz quad before even thinking about a CPU upgrade

Arcmanov · « **Reply #16 on:** July 22, 2008, 08:32:23 AM »

You may not actually see that until the Nehalem generation. You can very easily OC the Q6600 or Q9300 to 3 GHz with stock voltage.
Only the FSB need be adjusted.

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #17 on:** July 22, 2008, 08:54:26 AM »

^^ Very true. And for $200, I find that very hard to pass up. And I know the potential of those chips especially since I ran one in my current board.

Arcman. Guard your benchie score well. Expect me.

hahahahahaha.....lawd.

Here we go again.

Remember, I'm using VISTA eh folks, so the comparison is moot.
Of course you will get higher scores in XP, so its not an issue.

If we comparing in Vista, then bring it on.
