Intel will continue to push the CPU core-clocks up and the prices down early next year, as sources close to the semiconductor giant revealed. The mainstream Prescott processor at 2.80GHz will be available for orders at just $178 price-point starting from the 15th of February, whereas the monstrous Prescott 3.80GHz will come in Q2 2004.
You probably know that the next major price reduction will be performed by Intel on the 26th of October, while the pricing of the Pentium 4 processors will remain unchanged after the launch of Prescott processors at 3.20 and 3.40GHz this November. Probably in January
