Weekly CPU Prices - Week of Apr 29, 2002

Welcome to the Sharky Extreme Weekly CPU Prices. This is a weekly update on CPU prices we find around the net.

We have several different tables to help you find what you are looking for, sorted by manufacturer; (AMD or Intel) sorted by price; tables showing only high-end or low-end CPUs, all to make your research and subsequent buying decision a bit easier. Use our handy "jump to" feature at the bottom of each page to quickly get where you need to go.

If you are new to this feature and are wondering just exactly how we get these prices, and how YOU can get them, the last page of this guide describes our search methods. Please note that most prices listed were found using PriceWatch and are only for phone orders, requiring that you call the vendors and tell them you found a specific price on PriceWatch or "on Sharky Extreme's Weekly CPU Price Guide, which uses PriceWatch." Also please note that prices change daily, while our guide is only updated weekly; so you will need to get an updated price.

So without further ado here are your CPU Prices...

AMD CPU Prices

AMD Comments

Last week's stagnant AMD processor prices are replaced this week, by a series of modest drops on the prices of most of the Athlon and Athlon XP processors listed. The most welcome price change for aspiring Athlon XP buyers will likely be the $16 drop on the 1.67GHz Athlon XP 2000+, which has fallen to a new price of only $160.
