For those too lazy to click

New AMD Athlon XP processor, made with 0.13 micron 2500+ Thoroughbred core (real clock rate – 2GHz) was noticed in one of Swiss online-shop, trading with computer parts. Also, the price-list of this shop includes non-announced Athlon XP 2200+, 2300+ and 2400+ processors.

The prices for these processors are as follows:

AMD Atlon XP 2200+ (1.8 GHz) "Thoroughbred" - 347 Euro ($327);
AMD Atlon XP 2300+ (1.867 GHz) "Thoroughbred" - 382 Euro ($360);
AMD Atlon XP 2400+ (1.933 GHz) "Thoroughbred" - 406 Euro ($383);
AMD Atlon XP 2500+ (2.0 GHz) "Thoroughbred" - 437 Euro ($412);

It should be noted that the page with the description of the product says "ask us", which means that they are only accepting orders for these processors. Nonetheless, we have contacted the shop and they said the processors would appear only after June 16.

Pentium 4 2.53 Ghz = $530
Pentium 4 2.40 Ghz = $383
Pentium 4 2.20 Ghz = $228
Pentium 4 2.00 Ghz = $187

What's going to happen to the Price/Preformance Argument. Since the Prices of the T-bred closely matches the Prices of P4's.

Ah but this is but one store and your comparing it to the cheapest prices nationwide, besides we don't even know if it's true yet or not and thier always a little more expensive when they first come out.
