Intel are feeeling the pinch put on by AMD in value market!
Good for new builds on intel route though, nice for prices to drop.
Personally, I build mostly AMD systems for customers, allows for a better balanced build. I do use Intel but only High End stuff for Performance users that want specific things from their machines.
Those waiting for c2q prices to fall, should have seen the deal on the wall from the offset, prices only fall on current tech, older tech always hits a wall and goes no lower, look at Nvidia 2xxx cards, sell for silly expensive money still
