Intel is preparing a new low-cost dual-core Pentium D 805 processor, it will be available in March. This processor will have only a 2.66GHz clockspeed and a 533MHz FSB.
Earlier Alzasoft online store based in Czech Republic began to take orders on the Intel Pentium D processor 805 that runs at 2.66GHz, uses 533MHz processor system bus and sports 2MB cache (1MB per core). The chip is expected to cost about $200 with all taxes included, which is probably an indicator that wholesale pricing for the processor will be much less than $200 - $163 or $178, even though Intel Corp. officials declined to comment on the price-points.
