Wow what a "deal" the standard price you pay at Amazon.com except if you live in CA you get to pay tax too!

I just paid 169 dollars for a Phenom II 940. Yes, the Q9550 is a better processor, clock-for-clock, but it's not that much better. I would expect price pressure from AMD to drive these prices down more.
