AMD aims to break even and increase profit margins, and Intel does not want to worsen the performance on the shrinking PC market. Processors began to sell less, and in order for financial indicators to improve, it is necessary that the average selling price grows. Intel will offer this year the Skylake-X desktop processor with 18 cores for $ 1999. By the way, the prices for Broadwell-E and Skylake processors have not changed since April 22, at least, although the period of price stability
for Intel lasts much longer.
AMD company , as explained by the site PCWorld , has almost every day to remind that the price of its processors, it has not reduced since the announcement of the existing models Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 5. If individual stores reduce prices, it is their private initiative. By the way, German colleagues note that in their national retail processors Kaby Lake and Ryzen have synchronized cheaply since the announcement, and now stand at 20% cheaper. It should be understood, however, that in a particular
case, such a reduction in prices became possible because of a favorable exchange rate for German consumers. Related Products :
