GoNz0 Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 £500 for the new XP3000, are AMD tripping or somthing, they just killed any chance they had of selling that chip, why ???, becuase it's almost the same price as a Intel 3.06 ghz chip. £503 on dabs.con for the XP3000 (long lead time expected) and the intel 3ghz is £550, AMD are susposed to be like half the price of Intel ffs was a bunch of idiots.

FthrJACK Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 The price should drop sharply over the next month or two. also... Dabs are always expensive anyway. you can probably pick that chip up for as much as £80 cheaper elsewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoNz0 Posted February 12, 2003 Author Share Posted February 12, 2003 just seems so OTT for an AMD chip thats behind intel's speed.. the XP2000 was half the price of the intel 2.0... :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
