Unfortunately they dont really tend to drop price much, Intel simply stops making them.

Try finding a Sandybridge 2600k for cheap, they have barely dropped price at all (retail) since release in 2011.

Well, Intel prices are rarely going down that much. Take a look at Sandy and Ivy 2500k/2700k or 3570k/3770k, prices are still above 200-250€. When Skylake arrives prices will go down though but dont expect big price-drop.

Another +1 for the above two, the only reduced prices from intel are from people selling used looking to upgrade or holiday sales. Even holiday sales don't drop that much. If you live in the u.s. and are near a microcenter, they have about the best prices on intel cpu's. New chips being sold from vendors just don't change in price much. They may fluctuate $5 up or down and that's about it. Amd often have more frequent and larger discounts but without competition intel just sets the price and leaves it there. If a retail vendor still has outdated new in box products that are no longer being shipped the price can often go up even higher than it was originally.

I don't know if skylake will even drop prices, at least not likely here in the u.s. Pricing structures seem to vary from one region to another, as in the u.s. vs europe etc. When the 4690k came out it was the same price as the previous 4670k. During black fri/cyber mon sales the newer 4690k did drop around $20 and became cheaper than the 4670k. 3570k and 2500k cpu's for the u.s. are still around $240, same as the 4690k and they're 1 and 2 generations back. Based off this I see no reason for the 4690k to drop price when skylake releases either.

So What about My Country? I m from India, Gujarati(State), Ahmedabad(City).
As per my knowledge most of our people uses smartphones rather than owning PC or building PC.
South India is an IT Hub.I belong to West India.
So any difference it will make based on the data I have given?
