We are already familiar with the characteristics of first four core processors phenom. AMD representatives reported that phenom processors with four core will be announced already in the middle of the current block. They will become a part of spider platform , which will be presented during November.
So what is the price policy with respect to phenom processors . If in barcelona processors we could observe sufficiently low price niches (low-end model cost $209), then this generosity is improbable for Phenom: "We will present four core processor phenom products in such price positions, which is not utilized today".
It is possible to assume that the prices of phenom processors will be higher than $220. Those processor will be positioned relative to the processors core 2 Quad from Intel, which prices begin from $266.
The tendency to place Phenom in higher price segment proves that AMD expects to slightly improve the processors sales price in the fourth quarter 2007. If we consider that the deliveries capacity of four core AMD processors in the current block will be measured by hundreds or thousand pieces we can't speak about the mass accessibility of the first phenom models in this year .
