Phenom II X4 prices surface
Written by Andreas G 02 January 2009 18:05

Phenom II X4 is slated to appear in early January and the processor that will be the first consumer processor from AMD made at the 45nm node has been showing a lot of promise so far. The pricing has been anything but official though, but as stores are starting to list the new models, we are starting to get a feel for where it will start. Two models should launch on January 8th, Phenom II X4 920 (2.8GHz) and Phenom II X4 940 Black Edition (3.0GHz).

When we average out the prices so far it looks like they will cost around 220€ for the Phenom II X4 920 and 250€ for the Phenom II X4 940 Black Edition, while the dollar prices will be slightly higher, around $230 and $280 respectively. Right now this puts them around the same price range as the cheapest Core i7 processor, the Intel Core i7 920, but then the overall platform cost is much lower on the AMD side. We will just have to wait and see what the reviews will say in terms of performance.
