But this price cut does seem a little too obvious in stalling C2Q 45nm momentum instead of anything general related to demand.

On a whole this seems more like AMD rolling a speed bin down.

950 replaces 940/5 replaces 920/5 replaces 910 (original price) replaces... gah you know how it goes.
950 might have some other leverage for its price. Maybe OCing capabilities. Maybe the price is lower too, at ~$250 instead of $285.
