X2 939 vs AM2 Pricing charts

The charts are live not static. The charts below are showing only retail prices but the text at the labs.anandtech URLS will show OEM and retail.

It is most usefull if you bookmark this post and look at these charts every 3-4 days or write notes about interesting prices and check back later. If there is a particular combination of charts you want to see next to each other or if anyone knows how to make two charts show side by side on iHUB let me know.

For example the 4000+ AM2 part is currently more expensive than the 4200+ AM2 part. As volume ramps up you can expect that to reverse.

Cheapest Retail prices on ATRTP + S&H compaired by hand at time of post make a static list of:
	939	AM2	AM2 Preorder 
------------------------------------
3800 297 335 300
4000 --- 382 324
4200 357 369 365
4400 460 --- 463
4600 547 580 550
4800 632 --- 635
5000 --- --- 780

Note the higher end AM2 parts and the 1MB AM2 parts are scarce still. The low end 512kb parts are easier to get.

939 parts = http://labs.anandtech.com/products.php?sfilter=265&price=yes














AM2 parts = http://labs.anandtech.com/products.php?sfilter=479&price=yes

Temp,

We are talking past each other. I know the difference between a single core and a dual core A64, and I was merely pointing to the fact that the price has already dropped on the Athlon 64 3800+, while it appears as a 7/24 price drop on the list quoted at DailyTech and their commentary.

Sorry.

Yes, the timing of SC cut is now (or imminently) but cut in DC is scheduled for July 24.
