High-end Intel CPUs more expensive in EU due to strong dollar

Published by

Interesting, as the US Dollar strengthens itself, the prices of some product in the EU start to rise. High-End Intel CPUs for example are seeing a strong increase in pricing. The Core i7-4790K has risen from 280 EUR to 300 EUR.



The i5-4690K's price increased from 190 EUR to 210 EUR and the Xeon E3-1231 v3 went from 195EUR to 220EUR. 

Interestingly enough prices on video cards, motherboards, power supplies and AMD processors remain steady. Intel's lower-end SKUs like the Core i3, Pentium, Celeron and Atom processors are hardly affected by the strong dollar. Intel might keep the pricing of the lower-end models stable in these price-sensitive line-ups.
