That second slide with the price is such royal bullsh!t, it borders on false advertising:
Intel G3258 price: $72 (street price: $70)
Nvidia GT730 price: Can't find MSRP, but street price is $51.

AMDJoe, please explain where your marketing department came up with these prices of $74 (CPU) and $58 (GPU)?
Hi, I am starting to like you, especially since I have 'The Fortune' to read your last 100 posts on our forums.
They shown, that you have great expertise in everything, that your opinion is always right. And anyone and anything you do not agree with is worth attacking by any means available.
Yet, with all that above and more, I have not seen in those posts single one where you would even remotely try to help anyone.
So while I do not intend to argue with you again (unless you change) as it is pure waste of time, I am starting to enjoy your activity here thanks to understanding your inner motives.

How is it false advertising? It says right in the slide that they got it from price watch yesterday. Regardless, even if you use your prices, 70+51 = $121, which is still more expensive than $117.99. Like to what degree do their pricing estimates have to be accurate? Do the slides have to dynamically update for every single possible sale, site, tax, shipping?
Like I agree that for the most part AMD's marketing is terrible, but this is like the worst possible example to get upset about.
