Weekly CPU Prices - Week of June 15, 2009 - Page 2

Intel Comments

It's almost as if this week's Intel prices are a mirror image of their AMD counterparts. As in other camp's charts, the overwhelming majority of the Intel prices we track held steady. And continuing with the similarity is the one significant drop help to keep things interesting. In this case, it's a $29 in the tracked price of the Q9950 that should draw readers' attentions.

General Comments

While this week's did contain a couple of double-digit price drops (literally... one from each camp), the overall trend continued to be one of general stagnation. But as we move toward the end of the second quarter and the beginning of the third, we're hopeful that increased competition between the two camps will translate into more in the way of price drops.
