Gary SInce Intel has a well tuned process all parts make a profit. The few high end make a huge profit and the sea of low end make even more. There are a sea of price points for all the assorted CPUs.
You would have to run the numbers for each CPU and speed along with cost estimates from ??? and arrive at a figure. I expect a progrssive iteration for all the CPU's sals, speeds ASP etc has been done by some analysts as their internal model. Try and find that on the web> it my be there or it may not.
We are really speculating without hard facts.
However if AMD gets a high speed CPU you will see Intel profits tumble off a cliff for the areas where it competes directly. The recent Celeron price cuts have been to dent AMD any profit and turf. Classic big oil tactics.
