Intel to discontinue Core i7 920 & 940 CPUs ?
http://www.bit-tech.net/news/hardware/2009/05/28/intel-to-discontinue-core-i7-920-940-cpus/1
I didnt see that coming, its only rumors so far but hum, that makes sense if i was Intel and i think i don't have real compeition, i COULD do that.
And if I COULD, THEY probably WILL.
Sell i5 for a higher price than they should and discontinue any i7 option that would be a better deal at that price, so i'll sell crappier i5 that cost me less to produce.
So maybe those who are waiting for an i5 will only get an i5 for only a BIT less than a i7 cost.
Some are thinking after reading this 'man why the hell did i buy an i7', me im thinking about getting one faster before they disapear lol (since i realy need to change my rig this year)
But i still feel like i should say this if they realy do that : Screw you Intel =/
BTW : this topic could be in the news that would generate some juicy replys :P
