You do know your post doesnt make any sense right?

cheaper = faster?

last time I checked the Core i7 920 costs about $80 more than the new Phenom II 940 processor and virtually destroys it in all benchmarks.

Things may have changed since I last bought a processor.  So maybe Intel can compete with AMD on price now.

Something cannot be faster only because it is cheaper.  You may be able to buy a faster processor because it is cheaper than the competition.  That was the point I was trying to make.
