Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (AMD) announced its latest round of desktop processor price cuts on Monday, and rival Intel Corp. is expected to follow the move later this month.
AMD slashed prices on its top-of-the-line desktop PC microprocessors on Monday to US$599 per pair for the 3GHz version from US$799, making it the same price as its 2.8GHz version. The move may be a sign it wants to clear out the chips ahead of the launch of its next generation chips, Barcelona. The company also reduced the price of some of its best dual-core processors, the Athlon 64 X2 6000+, which runs at 3.0GHz, fell to $178 from $241 and its AMD 64 X2 5600+, to $157 from $505, according to its latest price listclick for more story
