AMD Single Core Price Cuts for Ides of May

We’ve received a new price forecast for AMD’s single core Athlon 64 and Sempron 64 processors for the month of May. The new price forecast shows price drops among the lower-end and mid-range product ranges. These processors vary from the Sempron 64 2800+ all the way up to the Athlon 64 3500+. Price drops vary from 10-15% on Athlon 64 3200+ and 3500+ models while Sempron 64 receive a 19-25% drop on the upper end 3400+ and 3300+ models. Lower-end Sempron models receive rather modest price drops of around 10-14%.

Chances are also good that these prices will go down further, depending on how quickly AM2 takes off. Too bad it doesn’t look like AM2 will affect any S939 Dual Cores though. Check it out at DailyTech.
