It's just pretty odd that they're charging "sixth-generation" prices for "seventh-generation" technology.

Adam - Re: It seems clear to me that AMD is continuing their long-established practice of pricing similar MHz chips at a discount to Intel ($699 is a convenient 15% discount to the $824 price). Nothing unusual, IMO.

FWIW, AMD claim that is not what they are doing.
