CHIP FIRM AMD has kicked into price cuts today by slashing prices on 939 and AM2 sockets.

Distributor prices seen by the INQ show that the Athlon 64 3000 will cost $89, the 3200 $99, the 3500 $109, and the 3800 $139. In the last case, that's a 50 per cent drop.

All socket and AM2 sockets are rebated, we understand from sources close to AMD Asia.
