Intel 9月2日再次調降處理器價格!?
 

Core 2 Prices To Drop @9/2, According to Intel

Intel Corp. made an announcement today to cut prices for some processors over a period of three months starting next month in order to regain market share from AMD Inc. Intel plans on reducing the price of the Core 2 Quad processor by 50% on July 22. The move will pressure AMD to reduce prices too and probably comes as a response to the upcoming launch of AMD’s own quad-core processors, the Phenom, which will arrive in the second half of 2007.
"Last year, a price war led to a 42 percent decline in annual profit at Intel and a $166 million loss at Advanced Micro."

"Advanced Micro Chief Marketing Officer Henri Richard said last week that he was 'concerned' that Intel would cut prices of quad-core processors and drive down overall levels in the industry."

"'When Intel wants to chase market share, they make these cuts to hurt Advanced Micro directly,' said Albert King, who owns Intel shares among the $10 million he manages as chief investment officer at Prophet Capital Inc. in Taipei."

Intel’s stock increased by 27 cents to $22.20 at 4 p.m. Eastern Time today on the Nasdaq. Since the beginning of this year, Intel has gained 9.6% on its shares. Intel’s price slash will bring the price of the Core 2 Quad to levels on par with its flagship dual-core processor. Moreover,

****Intel also has plans to drop the price of some of its Core 2 Duos by 24-32% on September 2 . ****

Though Intel is also in the business of making chipsets, motherboards, and flash memory, in the first quarter of this year 67% of its revenue came from CPUs. Last year we saw major price cuts to AMD’s Athlon X2s around the time Intel’s Conroe was introduced. Now Intel is returning the favor. It’s probably nothing personal. It’s just business.

真是xx的.早知就先買顆P4-631去頂着不去買E4300了. :stupefy:

遠的不用看, 先看" reducing the price of the Core 2 Quad processor by 50% on July 22"這句.

四核降價的殺傷力還比較猛一些.
對於有預算的雙核高階效能級用戶,相信不少人正在等下個月八千多塊的Q6600.
尤其是965系列若無法支援未來的45nm CPU, 目前的Q/QX系列不得不成為升級的候選對象.

不過,連865晶片都還有廠商搞出支援四核的AGP主機板,也可見支援性一切都是事在人為.
在天價DDR3明年也無法成為主流之際,同樣使用DDR2但低價的965晶片是否有掙扎的空間,
基於相同腳位繼續支援新處理器,還值得觀察....總之發正念祈福吧~

另外一句重點是"Intel also has plans to drop the price of some of its Core 2
Duos by 24-32% on September 2 "

這算是4/22的雙核大降價的第二彈吧~

九月的降價市場宣告相信是為了先堵Q3時間點想投靠AMD雙核的用戶,阻止其市佔率擴張.

對已經買的用戶,反正CPU降價已是常例性動作, 早買早享受, 已經買了就別在意降不降價.
已經夠用/沒新預算也沒必要每逢降價就隨廠商起舞.

這一年多來

才真正強烈感覺到Intel和AMD互相作用

過去制衡力並不明顯

說真的
我會等K10出來
在看看
反正就等等囉

今年下半年真是消費者撿便宜撿到手軟的一年

CPU價格直直落，DDR2暴跌，7900倒貨

只是AMD現在的營收已是虧損的狀況下，會跟進嗎?

AMD在跟進會不會倒阿.................

其實覺的AMD是不太會倒，原因是因它之前
不是才買下虧損連連的ATi。這就要牽到商業
了。在正常的帳面理應把ATi虧損的部份要先
去填補掉才行，之後若有剩餘利潤才算有賺到
。也就是假設AMD賺100元，但之前買的ATi
已虧了150元的話，這樣一加一減下，還虧50
元，所以就算先前一直賺錢，但所賺得的還無法
彌補虧損的情況下，當然就會變成所說的營運不
好。所以要對所支持的有信心！
本人誠認是支持AMD，但這非關支持的問題，
只是把一些事實離清一下，免的又一些人云亦云
的，本沒事，愈說愈離譜。試想若在買下ATi之
前就已營運不好的話，早就應快結束了。但若是
在買下ATi之後才出現營運不好，那就是本人所
說的，當母公司賺，但買下的子公司虧，理應先
彌補虧損，所以才會造成帳面上不好看。當然對
手也就利用此點放大化，說營運不好。像之前Intel
不也因新品推的不如預期，加上市佔率降低，也
可以說它營運不佳。所以有時說這個營運問題的話
，還是要先知來龍去脈比較好。
另外可能對手已預測敵方將出的產品可能會勝對自
己，所以想當然因應對測就是先在未出前，先把市
佔率搶下來，這樣才可避免可能的損失！此為本人
的見解。 :ase :ase :ase

老是在說降價
快忍無可忍了 ><



--------------------------------------------------------------------
繼續忍 敗家敗電腦是條不歸路

已經忍了3年6個月了 不差再多幾年 :flash:

Raziel大說的=>相信不少人正在等下個月八千多塊的Q6600
本來還想說7/22 Q6600應該還要接近1萬元 :ase
等45nm的6550就好 :hungry: :shy:

昨天已購入2條1G RAM了 :p :p
再來就是等I老大降價 準備開殺拉 :yeah: :p

嗯
小弟目前也是這樣的想法 :agree:
不過四核的價格真的蠻殺的 :hungry:
