According
to DigiTimes, Intel plans more price cuts for single-core Pentium 4 and
entry level dual-core CPUs in the range of 5-10% before April 22. Intel had
originally planned to introduce a massive price cut on April 22, but after AMD
announced price cuts on Feb 12 for 17 desktop Athlon 64 single- and dual-core
CPUs, Intel has decided to adjust its pricing earlier than expected. Price
reduction will focus on entry-level and mainstream CPUs, with 820 and 915 series
prices expected to drop 5-10% to around US$80.
