Now that Intel has a legitimate competitor after so many years of not having one, they're trying some weird and bizarre ideas.

I'll give it inside a week.

Side note: If the 7980XE come in under $2500, I'll be shocked.

I figured that Intel was in a panic by introducing the i9 chip too soon, but AMD has them like fish in a barrel.
