Weekly CPU Pricing Guide

Weekly CPU Prices - Week of May 2, 2005 - Page 2

By SharkyExtreme.com Staff May 4, 2005

Intel Comments

This was an incredibly stable week for Intel CPU prices, and overall listings are much the same as they have been for weeks - completely devoid of significant price drops. None of them, in fact, dropped by more than $2, and there were very few price cuts at all. Even the normally active LGA775 Pentium 4 5xx and 6xx models kept to the straight and narrow, with a few even rising in price.

General Comments

The Athlon 64 4000+ represented the lone significant price in the AMD section of the guide, and really kept this from being another in a long series of painfully slow weeks for the CPU Price Guide. In a best case scenario, this will end up being the opening shot in a renewed battle of competition between the two camps. And given that this is a time of year when price cuts have traditionally come, we're hopeful that this will prove to be the case.
