Weekly CPU Pricing Guide

Weekly CPU Prices - Week of April 20, 2009 - Page 3

By SharkyExtreme.com Staff April 24, 2009

High-End CPU Prices

The High-End processor market is made up of the fastest and most expensive CPUs that you can buy. This is also an area where money talks and money walks, especially at the top-end of the scale, where the budget-minded definitely fear to tread. To help select the right high-end CPU for your own specific configuration, we've sorted these based on model, speed and then split the CPUs into retail and OEM sections if required. This is an excellent method of gauging where the high-end "best buys" may be, especially between the OEM and Retail versions.
