Does this mean prices for AMD chips on Newegg will fall on July 24th also?

I wish I could remember where to find the price cut list... looking at the x2 4000+ with 1 MB L2 cache.

Also, I hope that giant typhoon in the Pacific doesn't hit Taiwan... may be bad for RAM prices among other things.

All 1MB cache products are EOL and will not be seeing a price cut. AMD decided to phase them out because the extra cache increases costs and really does not offer a huge performance gain.

Really? Dangit! Well I really thought getting 1 MB L2 cache would be a really smart move.

What about the nforce 590 chipset over the nforce 570? It is about $50 or so more.

Anyway, back on topic, how come they won't coincide with July 26th, which is the relase of Conroe, right?
