Default Intel price cuts

According to
http://www.fudzilla.com/index.php?op...698&Ite mid=1
the next round of price cuts are due in April and affect mainly 65nm parts.

"Intel plans it usual price cut that will affect mostly the old 65nm parts.
On April 20th Intel will cut Core 2 Quad Q6700 from the current $527
suggested retail price to $270. The super popular Q6600 at 2.4GHz will drop
from $270 to $229. At the same time, Intel plans to introduce its Core 2 Duo
E8300 45nm based CPU with 6MB cache and 2.83GHz clock and it will start
selling it for $169.

The Core 2 Duo E4600 2.4GHz CPU with 2MB cache will drop from $139 to $119.
Pentium Dual core E2200 with 1MB cache and 2.2GHz clock speed will drop from
current $87 to $77. Dual Core E2180 clocked at 2.0GHz clock will drop from
current $77 to $67.

The last two price cuts will affect the Celeron 440 at 2.0GHz and 512KB
cache, it will drop from current $54 to a new low of $45. The last planned
price cut affects the Celeron 430 at 1.8GHz 512KB cache and FSB 800MHz. It
will drop from current $45 to $35.

All this is expected on April 20th"

Fudzilla.com has almost zero credibility.

Hope so. Those DUO prices have been stuck at
"too much" for a while now. I'm looking at a new
mobo bundle, but not for $350 and higher.
