Weekly CPU Pricing Guide

Weekly CPU Prices - Week of April 14, 2003 - Page 2

By SharkyExtreme.com Staff April 16, 2003

Intel Comments

Once again, the only significant price drops in this week's Intel chart come in on the highest-end processors. And as we noted last week, even after this week's addition $25 cut, leaving the retail flagship Pentium 4-3.06GHz at $473, the next-fastest Pentium 4-2.8GHz retail CPU is still a better deal at $326.

General Comments

The huge price drops on Athlon XP processors may well lure undecided buyers to the AMD side of the fence, and the significantly lower price of the Athlon XP 3000+ will certainly please high-end AMD buyers. But with recent Intel charts keeping prices in the ballpark, it may not be enough to convince any Intel-philes to switch over. Whether one leans toward Intel or AMD, though, it's nice to see some downward movement at the high-end of both price charts.
