Intel cuts prices to see off Ryzen competition
 

Yep it really is going to be competition

There are signs that Intel is scared of AMDs new Ryzen and is slashing prices on its chips in a bid to take it on a bit.

Intel has a lot to worry about, not only is Ryzen as good as anything Intel has, AMD is offering it at half the price.

According to Hot Hardware Intel appears to be starting to counter the new chip, even before it has been released. At Micro Center we've seen the six-core Intel Core i7-6850K (3.60GHz) drop from $700 to $550, and the i7-6800K (3.40GHz) drop down to $360, from $500.
