Prices of two upcoming AMD Phenom II X6 processors were leaked by a Bahrain-based etailer:
The folks at AlienBabelTech have encountered a posting on the e-tailer's Facebook page, and the contents don't leave much to the imagination:

We just received the official prices from AMD:

Phenom II X6 Six Core

1090T Black Edition: 125(W), AM3 Socket, 9MB Cache, 3.2 GHz Freq @ 295 USD
1055T: 125(W), AM3 Socket, 9MB Cache, 2.8 GHz Freq @ 199 USD

So, the fastest Phenom II X6 might end up priced a little bit higher than Intel's Core i7-860 and identically to the freshly released Core i7-930. The rumored Phenom II X6 1055T, meanwhile, could fight it out with the Core i5-750.
