Tracking processor price levels is just one facet of our guide. We also track price changes, from one week to the next, outlining where the best CPU deals may exist at a specific point in time. In the following chart, we've tried to make it even easier on you by sorting the data using the price change column and ranking the largest drops right at the top. This type of chart can really help buyers who track processor prices closely, watching for any opening to purchase. This listing, along with the forthcoming one that is sorted by price, should be invaluable tools in any buying decision. Just remember to keep your eye on both sides of the equation, as the biggest price drop may be indicative of a good deal, but the overall price and its competitive position still needs to be evaluated.
