Thats the big question. The chip itself not by much (3-5$) but it draw less power: Redesign of the motherbord (thinner lines). With the redesign you can change other parts also to know cheaper availible types.A not so efficient cooling system, smaller power transformer. And while your at it, change the Blue Ray device. Well if they are really good 50$. But no way more than that. The bigger question is: By what time do they go on 45/33nm? Thats the point where the big potential lies.
