Re: It has begun, 4200+ 939 price drop. For now it is cheaper to buy the 4200+ than it is to buy the 3800+ assuming you don't have to pay sales tax at Newegg. Looks like an Anandtech error. The newegg prices haven't dropped and the Anandtech X2 4200+ link actually goes to Corsair memory priced at $296. The Pentium D 805 is now up to the #3 spot in the newegg CPU popularity list and is the most popular dual core CPU, thanks to the recent 805 price cuts and introduction of the AM2 X2 3800+ to syphon off some 939 X2 3800+ sales. I wouldn't doubt that the cheap single-core A64 prices are negatively affecting X2 3800+ sales too.
