While not quite as stagnant as their AMD counterparts, this week's Intel processor listings are nonetheless holding pretty steady. Only three of the prices we track fell at all, with both the 2.5 GHz Core 2 Quad Q9300 and 3.0 GHz XEON E3110 processors falling by $5 and the Core 2 Duo E7400 dropping by only $1. Overall, a very uneventful week, but at least there was only a single price increase, and that was just $2.
This is about as slow a week for CPU price changes as we've seen in quite a while, with only three of the AMD and Intel processors we track falling at all and none dropping by more than $5. Adding insult to injury, the largest price change turned out to be an $8 increase, but hopefully the official release of the Core i7 line will lead to a more eventful next few weeks.
