Intel Slashes Prices

April 21, 2003 7:25 AM

If you just bought a Pentium 4 CPU last week, Intel has now owned you. The company has announced price cuts for its fastest CPUs, which means the 3ghz is now 32% cheaper and the 2.4ghz is now 38% cheaper.

The price of Intel's newest chip for desktop computers--a Pentium 4 which also runs at 3 gigahertz but has a faster system bus, or pathway, to the rest of the computer--was set at $417

Ummm, hey AMD, time to drop those Barton 3000+ prices eh?

  You mean the AMD proc that competes quite nicely at a slower bus, clock speed, cheaper parts for motherboard (which have some nice features with the Nforce 2 variety) and runs quite cooler? Oh hey, and it's cheaper by at least $80. wow.
