Just read in the PCStats newsletter that their sponser has announced AMD cpu prices drops....

From PCStats newsletter:

Our sponsor, PC Progress.com has let us know that a price drop (http://pcprogress.com/showcase.asp?scid=6&m1=pcs) on AMD processors has just come into effect; the details are below, so check them out!



I know some people on the forum have been itching for a reason to get an Athlon XP CPU. Well this should give them even more incentive (even though I am waiting to go to a clawhammer ;) ).
Although I'm not sure if the prices will drop further when the Thoroughbreds appear on the scene... :confused:

Prices at PC Progress:
------------------------------------
1900+ $130
2000+ $159
2100+ $192


AMD.com price list:
------------------------------------
1900+ $220
2000+ $280
2100+ $330

What would be really cool is if the TBred 1900+ would come out at that price. You would get cheap power & a cooler CPU while at it.:)

What do you mean if?
Click on the link in the quote and order one.... ;)

This is great! Just after Intel has just announced the price drop, AMD does this. Yeahoo :D

Eh? Aren't the Thoroughbreds already available?

Well I read about this AMD price drop before the Intel one. But PC Progress seems to be the only place that has them at that sort of price... :confused:

The last chart is according to a French online site.

UK sites site have XPs at premium prices.
The PC Progress prices are the only really low ones I have seen.
