AMD Phenom will launch later this month, and with the frequencies being revised (read lowered) just before the upcoming unveilment, the prices of the processors have become even more important. Several stores and distributors have listed the three Phenom processors and even estimated the launch dates of not only the 9500 (2.2 GHz) and 9600 (2.3 GHz) models, which are expected to arrive on November 19th, but also the 9700 model (2.4 GHz) which is slated for December 14th. Prices of the three models are expected to be somewhere around $260, $290 and $320 dollars. This is about the same price range as Intel’s Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600, which runs at 2.4 GHz; $266.
