For one though I think Intel is
now making their own SRAMs for quality and performance reasons. You alluded to this. Which
means they will be getting them at cost, which is probably below NEC's price. Also you know that
AMD needs SRAMS on the motherboard for their L2 cache, yes they're cheaper but add in the cost
nonetheless.


Elmer,

Getting at cost from internal production does not guarantee lowest cost. Intel could have save more money by buying flash chips from AMD. Of course that means giving up the market shares to AMD.
