"What's the problem?"

If the list is as you have it, none. But Intel sees the list as something like this...

1. 840 EE $1000
2. 840 $528
3. 830 $314
4. A64 X2 4800+ $190
5. 820 $240
6. A64 X2 4600+ $150
7. A64 X2 4400+ $125

Or something close to that. Look for a pile of benchmarks going out to reviewers that reflect this "reality".

On a given cpu die, is logic much more expensive than cache? Would a die made up of 1 cpu core and the remainder in cache cost less than a die of the same size made up of 2 cpu cores and less cache?

The next question is, for a P4 what is the performance delta between a chip using the die space for more cache vs more cpu core?
