Word has just come in from the grapevine that Intel will announce the discontinuation of six Intel Core 2 processors and four Intel Pentium D processors in November 2007. Do note that this is based on a leaked report and may still be subject to change. Here's a quote from the editorial :- Link : ED#59 : Intel To Announce End-Of-Life Processors
Wow, only almost more than 1 year old is considered end of life for the E6300 and its variants. Any idea if they can sell them cheap, since they are already technically (but not practically) 'obsolete'?
Well, it's hard to say. The prices for these processors are pretty much fixed by Intel on the supplier's side, but after that, it depends on supply and demand. But I do think the E6300 will drop in price, cause everyone knows it's being phased out by the E6320.
