Nukeit, that is because the Durons are so cheap. My point was that they had to be sold cheap because of the lack of cheap motherboards with intergrated video. The difference in MB costs on the list on Tom's site was only $15 but $15 means something for chips that are this cheap. Also if you add in the cost for a cheap video card the difference increases. This problem was mentioned in AMD's conference call. It might result in less Durons being sold in Q4 then expected and it all ready has resulted in a lower ASP for Q3. Tim
