Weekly CPU Pricing Guide

Weekly CPU Prices - Week of October 17, 2005 - Page 2

By SharkyExtreme.com Staff October 19, 2005

Intel Comments

This week's Intel processor charts contain a couple of modest price cuts, namely an $11 drop in the price of the 3.4GHz Pentium 4 650 and a $10 drop in the price of the 2.53GHz Celeron D 326. There are a few smaller price decreases scattered through the chart, but unfortunately, though, these are eclipsed by a $24 increase in the price of the 3.06 Celeron D 345 and a $10 jump to the Pentium 840 Extreme Edition.

General Comments

Price drops continue to be few and far between in this week's CPU guide, with neither of the major AMD or Intel sections providing much to get excited about. Those who've been sitting on the fence, unsure of whether or not to buy, might want to either hop off or get comfortable, as nothing in this week's guide is going to do much to sway them either way.
