AMD April price cuts

[red]

my friend created a litle something for me.



He said me that will be the true price

Cute graph. Those prices will probably be on AMD's official list www.amd.com/pricing

Johnny Guru has prices that'll show up on Newegg I think.

X2 3800 - $72 -> € + 20% TAX
X2 3600 - $69 ->€ + 20% TAX

like FRANK M said...EUROPE SUX!

No.

$ = € because of 20% VAT

So in EU you can expect X2 3800 for 72€

why such a fierce battle on april 22 to be exact?

people aint gonna have much left over after 4/20

If this is not proven to be false in the next month or so, then I am def going AMD this April.

If they do end up doing this - I have huge doubts - it will kill the company, that I can no longer deny.

X2 4000+ @ $100 sounds just perfect for cheap a HTPC

[freeloader]

AMD clearing out the channel inventory for ?

The X2 6000 is a bargain at that price, especially for an AMD person.

i smell an X2 6000+ as my birthday present

why would it kill the company? yields on 65nm are getting better every month, die size is very small for k8.

if you were waiting for k10, you can allready buy 3600 now very cheap. my e6600 will drop 30% end april and another 30% in july, hell i'll just sell it now for a very decent price. I'll buy the saphire 690 mobo with a x2 3600 till the new k10 arrives, it provides oc'ed enough power for daily work and games.

[safan80]

soon one will be able to set up a dual core Proc and Mobo for under $100 combined

you can do that already it's called ebay. the x2 with the motherboard and the RAM that I have has depreciated to the point that I'd be lucky to get a $100 for everything. I hate the fact that AMD killed S939.

this would kill the company if they didnt have a new product coming out in a month... this is obviously aimed at the short term of gaining marketshare/clearing out the old. k10 wont hit full swing till 08, but amd doesnt want to be sitting on piles of k8 chips that nobody wants, kinda like a certain someone...

X2 3600 - $69 ->€ + 20% TAX

like FRANK M said...EUROPE SUX!

X2 3800+ already costs just a little over 80€ in Europe (and of course including tax)...

20% tax, HOLY ! Talk about getting

I thought we had it bad at 14%!

[Kingcarcas]

holy crap... if i wouldn't have a s939 mobo i'd definately upgrade :[

We are the forgotten ones

[Ubermann]

Soon you need to pay taxes on the tax here in crapeurope.

When are we gonna have a RAM price war?

[nn_step]

When are we gonna have a RAM price war?

Probably never given the collusion that has been happening according to the department of justice.

[mAJORD]

Only bit they've stuffed up is the 4400+ price :p

should match 4300's price to be a viable alternative.. 4300 is pretty good value there..

[Jamesrt2004]

When are we gonna have a RAM price war?

I hope it will be soon
4Gb of ram sounds really tempting, along with a K10 cpu and a R600 gpu

QFT to be honest I want cheap ram, with a k10 system with super gfx'

my system now would die in comparison

[turbox997]

X2 4800 !!!!!!!!!!!


too bad there probably won't be any changes in s939 cpu's (referring to Opterons since they have not received word of EOL's yet)

[pengizzle]

price war is already on in europe.
110Eur for 2Gigs of DDR2 PC6400 Value Ram. Wont get any cheaper maybe prices will even rise again.

[Jamesrt2004]

About £95 in the Uk for Value PC6400 2GB

Pfffttt...we have 25% VAT/sales tax in Denmark. I'm the one who should be crying.

[Shintai]

Stop whine, we got higher wages and actual more buying power in terms of electronics

And our prices without VAT are usually alot lower than other countries. US people have to use newegg that uses price guages for months, while we get it at rock bottom prices from day 1.

[bloodbanger]
