Weekly CPU Pricing Guide

Weekly CPU Prices - Week of September 11, 2006 - Page 2

By SharkyExtreme.com Staff September 13, 2006

Intel Comments

Once again, we see ever so slightly more in the way of price changes in this week's Intel charts as we saw in the AMD section of the guide. There are a few double-digit price cuts to the Intel Core 2 line, as the 2.66 GHz Core 2 Duo E6700 fell by $13 and the 2.93 GHz Core 2 Extreme X6800 shed $17 off its retail price, but there was no other consistent price movement. And with this kind of price consistency, nothing in the Intel chart is much more likely to send anyone rushing to make any purchases that had not already decided on.

General Comments

This week's CPU price guide, unfortunately, is mostly a repeat of what we saw last week... and the week before that. It seems that after the extreme price drops we saw during the Core 2 release, both AMD and Intel are satisfied to let it ride for the time being. But considering how much bang you can get for your buck, these days, we really can't complain too much.
