Intel reduces prices for Core 9000 series F (no IGP) range + Xeon W 2200 Range

Intel reduces prices for Core 9000 series F (no IGP) range + Xeon W 2200 Range

Last week you've already seen the many-core Core X announcements, however intel ahd another surprize left, as they are lowering prices for the 9000 series. 

The price reduction runs from 5 to even 20%, the price cut is specifically aimed at the processors without integrated GPU, or the IGP that is disabled I should say. That means all processors in the 9000 series and name ending with the letter F apply. The biggest drop in price can are the low-cost procs, Core i3 9100F is 20% cheaper and the i5 9400F 14%. The more expensive Core i7s and i9s processors drop is 5 to 8 percent bringing them closer to3wards AMD Ryzen processors.

Intel Core i3 9100F 4 $ 122 $ 97 20 No No 65 W

 

Intel also is introducing its workstation-specific Xeon W processors with eight 2200-series chips priced from $294 to $1,333 up-to 18-cores, based on the latest Cascade Lake architecture. Below an overview of the new procs, clock on the thumbnails to enlarge.

Basically, yeah. They are directly competing with Ryzen 3000 prices, since they also don't have an iGPU. And by "directly competing" I mean they made prices more similar even though the AMD chips have SMT and Intel doesn't at most of them. Which is a little sad because some of the latest games are actually getting starved for threads on the i5 vs Ryzen 3000 when using a high end GPU, and there's literally no reason why Intel can't enable HT on the i5. They could be wiping the floor value wise with the Ryzen 3600, but they specifically choose not to for some reason.

I can think of one. Who is gonna buy an i3 or an i7 if they do that? We can all speculate as much as we want, but the bean-counters have spoken on this one.

They dropped 25 dollars on each, certainly that the margin in the 9900kf is much bigger

Do you think the difference between a i9600k ( i5 with gpu ) with HT enabled, and a 3600 without gpu, would be so much to be defined as floor wiping?

the i5 9600k is priced between a 3600x and a 3700, so it would cost more than a 3600, offering more game performance ( with HT ) but costing more for a non useful iGpu.
