AMD To Increase Athlon 64 and Athlon 64 X2 Prices, Sempron to Take a Drop

By

According to an email sent out to Solution Providers, AMD is increasing Athlon 64 and Athlon 64 X2 processor prices by a few dollars, while the Sempron will drop in price.

AM2 prices will also be available on May 15th.

Effective April 10th, the desktop AMD Athlon? 64 and AMD Athlon? 64 X2 processors will have a small price adjustment upwards, adding a few dollars to the current prices of these products. AMD is confident that these products will continue to deliver outstanding price performance to the market.
AMD Athlon? 64 FX is not impacted by these moves and will hold flat in price.

Effective May 15th, the AMD Sempron? prices will adjust downwards. The May 15th pricing will also include socket AM2 pricing for many AMD Athlon and AMD Sempron branded products in order to provide guidance on product pricing prior to launch. We believe that this full product offering of socket AM2 products will drive a hard and fast transition to the AM2 platform as well as drive cost effective motherboard solutions.
