It seems that the upcoming launch of AMD's much hyped Ryzen processors may be making Intel nervous, as they have started to drop their prices. So far price reductions have only been seen in the USA, but fingers crossed they start happening in Europe soon.

It seems that Intel is getting nervous about the AMD Ryzen launch and has started to lower prices on their processors. The equivalent 6900K model however still is 999 USD, twice as much as the Ryzen flagship. Others like the quad-core processors do see a price cut.

Also we think with a tiny bit of tweaking that 6900K might even get beaten or normalized by even a 329 USD Ryzen 7 1700 processor. The new prices have not gone into effect everywhere, here in the EU they are still at the same old level. In the USA etailers like Newegg also is listing older prices.
