AMD strictly moderated (AMD)

[mas]

Just look at their prices right now. It's a rip-off for an AMD X2 processor. Their 2GHz, 512K L2 cache X2 has a list price of $303. For only $13 more, you can get a Pentium D 950 with much better performance at a reasonable 95W TDP. And AMD has nothing that can touch the price/performance of the 940 and 930 (at $241 and $209, respectively). These are the mainstream parts where all the volume is, and AMD has nothing more than slow single core processors to fill the gap. In the mainstream pricing segment, Intel has performance and price/performance already won.

The above is pure wbmw fantasy of the highest order ! No-one wants P-D that's why they are being given away ! It's outclassed by X2 and it's also EOL. Who cares about it except rabid Intel investors ?
