yipee.......

gr8 news, let's c how intel responds after releasing conroe.

[akshayt]

don't expect any price cuts from intel except the ones mentioned, core 2 duo is already very good for the price.

[montylee]

But the availibility of the COre Duo will be an issue.

[Pathik]

hey wat about FX processers.... only 1 price cut...

[rahul_becks23]

yeah,i cant see FX 53 or FX 55 or FX 57 price cuts...............

[magnet]

noone will buy them now...core 2 duo beats it in performance in gaming..and also in price

btw in south amd 3800+ has reached 8.5k frm 16.5k...so the color we can c the change

[rahul_becks23]

everyone would buy them if there would have been a price cut of FX processors large enough to compete the core 2 duo....but there r no price cuts of FX processors,so Core 2 Duo is best 4 everyone now in Gaming.
Or,should we wait for the AMD comeback.

[Pathik]

do all lga 775 intel mobos support core2duo processers

[magnet]

but dude.......core 2 duo is easily overclockable........and reaches upto 3.8ghz on air cooling..and beats amd daMN BADLY....

btw me too waiting for amd answer but no such thing goin to happen till 2008..when architecture change will tak place.....till then njoy cheap prices frm amd.......

Cool info! When can we expect this in rest of india?

[magnet]

market pricenot forever...butreductionin prices at regular stages..man......


also wait for 2-3 weeks ... and c then check the market

[rahul_becks23]

yeah,i believe AMD will further cut prices after a moonth or two.

[eagle_y2j]

how much real price fall is there in Indian markets. Is it same 30-50% here also ?

[magnet]

its confirm prices r down..in hyderabad its 9.1k.........x2 3800+...also 1 frnd bought it for 8.4k.........but i doubt h got it frm states.....so trust the first point......

and yup delta pages chennai alsogiving the same proccy for 8.5k........so its done here.....jus wait till 29th-31st july than check your respective markets

[montylee]

X2 3800 still looks costly to me. If u convert it to dollars ($1 = Rs. 46), then the price in India is ~$186 which is quite high compared to ~$150 in U.S.

[rahul_becks23]

yep,a little costly but quite a good deal now anyways.

[magnet]

16.5 to 8.5...still u find it costly........montylee..

its much better than shops...which when i tried to ask for x2 price..was trying to stick me 4200+x2 for 19k..along with som fu#$%%board...saying its damn good peice.......

4200 + x2 price will settle at 12k soon........but 3800+ x2 is easily overclockable to 2.6ghz which beats 4400+ too damn easily........

nyways u can upgrade to pent 4 now easily there prices has also fallen

[montylee]

i found X2 3800+ a little costly bocz of my limited budget.
Still i am keeping my options open: I would buy either a X2 3800+ or a single core 3800+.

[anil_sk1]

I'll definetly go for conroe,, besides FX and 4800+ isn't available... i'll buy core 2 duo

[Pathik]

hey som1 answer me yaar....
do all lga775 mobos support core2duo processors
