Intel Slashes Chip Prices

gamerpk learns from CNet that Intel has cut prices on most of their chipsets where the Core 2 Quad Q6700 (2.66 GHz) saw a 50% cut in the prices from $530 to $266. Intel has also announced two new chipsets; The E8300 (6MB cache, 2.83GHz) and the E7200 (3MB cache, 2.53GHz) at $163 and and $133, respectively. This comes when the manufacturer saw that it might start losing some of it’s market share to the equally competitive AMD/ATI. A good news for gamers like me who are snooping around for deals to construct a new rig.
