The 200GE isn't overclockable. So, these exist for people who want higher clocks.
Also, the Intel competition is currently a terrible value and AMD is probably just trying to profit from the situation as much as possible.

With latest AGESA 1.0.0.6 BIOS, Athlon 200GE is overclockable on MSI, Gigabyte and ASUS boards. You have old info! These new Athlon processors are pointless.
