According to market sources, the price war between Intel and AMD is part of their global strategies to take on each other. And, it is understood that Intel is facing competition from AMD and its growing popularity across the globe. "AMD is surely growing across the world and no doubt about it. At the same time, it is true that Intel is afraid of competition, which is very explicit behind such moves. But, Intel has the muscle power to wage a (price) war and turn the battle in its favor," said a leading reseller from upcountry market in Tamil Nadu, who is also a key dealer for Intel.

 

Intel's price cut in the fast moving skews has raised many doubts and spun off stories among the channels. According to resellers, Intel will completely phase out Celeron and bring in entry-level P4 to Celeron place, while Dual-Core will be positioned in P4 rank. "They are expecting good-configuration PCs to be sold below Rs 0.010 Millions and mid-range P4 machines at Rs 0.014 Millions. This is something which industry totally unexpected and it will surely spur the PC growth in the country," opined a leading reseller from Chennai.

 

"Celeron processors are already not available with the distributors and whatever is available in the market, it is only through parallel import. The resellers are also not stocking enough goods (Intel processors) as the news about price cut is quite widespread now," said another reseller from Chennai.

 

However, few resellers in the city have confirmed that they hold some stocks and the product movement is very slow, as people are waiting for the major price cut from Intel on July 23. There is also news that Intel is going to appoint `Distribution Associates' (similar to sub-distributors) under the national distribution partners. Supreme Computers, Vajawat and RM Computers are the likely names for distribution associate in Chennai.

 

They mainly deal in Xenitis Computers
