AMD, Intel tweak pricing

jmke · 20th July 2004, 23:05

BOTH INTEL and AMD made minor changes to pricing of their processors over the weekend.
As we indicated at the beginning of July, Intel made some minor adjustments to its desktop processor pricing, but the big changes are scheduled for the 22nd of August.

AMD is releasing its Sempron processors on or shortly after the 17th of August, so will also make some announcements then.

The industry analysts are saying supply over demand; fear of inventory increase in both AMD and Intel. My take; AMD will lower pricing to get customer from the New Celeron. Intel is too big / slow to react to pricing. However, with 30% down in stock pricing from 12 months high; Intel may do something out of the ordinary.

Good for us.
