35% off Opteron processors

AMD offers 35% discount on Opteron upgrades.

 

[ponder]

The company said that channel partners and customers would receive a 35% discount in price by upgrading their generation of AMD Opteron processors

The discount will also be offered to South African users although it will typically apply to channel partners and solutions providers.

What are the chances of the full 35% trickling down to the SA customer/consumer.
Looks like we are going to get fooked again

I must agree... I think the prices will drop by 30% odd, but that would only happen in the next 6 months

Probably go something like according to the importers:

15% exchange rate depreciation
10% extra shipping costs because oil went up
5% because they will say that they have already been taking a knock for people

Therefore, we should see around 5% lower pricing

But inflation is around 10%, so they'll probably have to increase the price by 5 % after this news.

Damn, there is always something I forget. Thats why I always get caught by Core's Apple pricing.
