Kash - RE: "Seems like 600 is "low end" for Athlon speed grades now."

I checked out Pricewatch after you made that statement so see what prices were because you can get a good indication of what the bottom is by looking at the prices and WOW, AMD has MASSIVE price drops coming.

A company - United Distribution is listing prices it will sell Athlons for on 1/24, when Athlon price drops take effect. Here are current lowest prices, United Distribution's price (in effect 1/24), and the % diff:


750 $824 $649 21%
700 $613 $499 18.6%
650 $438 $299 31.7%
600 $325 $249 23%
550 $232 $199 14%

Keep in mind that the old prices are already slowly going down so the actual % price drop from previous prices is even LARGER than this.

.18 must be doing very well if AMD thinks they can drop prices THIS much.

I'm curious what AMD will say during the CC about Athlon ASP for this Q. Don't forget higher MHz Athlons are also coming out this Q.
