Eplace, <That's cause they have to make room for all those 700, 750, 800 and 850's that will now be the sweetspot for AMD. Too bad that's going to be the best Intel will be able to put out.> I'm only saying what I saw at Fry's. You can certainly come up with your own conclusions. I'm well aware that AMD is killing off the lower-speed Athlons in an attempt to move the MHz sweet spot. Certainly it's not a bad idea, if the reports are true and Athlon is yielding at very high MHz. But like I said before, it's the volumes that counts, not necessarily the MHz (or GHz). And like I said before, the real money will be coming from Fab 30 in Dresden whenever that starts actual production. Tenchusatsu
