CPU World
delivers news that AMD has cut the pricing of some of its desktop processors. Several A-series and some FX-series processors got a 9.5-18.9 percent price cut, and even the old Phenom II X4 965 BE got a 11 percent price drop.
AMD A6-3600, A8-3800 and A8-3820 socket FM1 APUs had their prices slashed by 12% - 19%. All three parts are not available in retail, as a result not many people would probably care about their price reductions.
AMD A6-5400K, A8-5500, and A8-5600K socket FM2 processors are now $10 less expensive. In relative terms, it corresponds to 10% - 15% lower cost depending on SKU. The prices of FX-4300, FX-6300, and FX-8320 CPUs also dropped by 10% - 15%.
