#1 AMD Has Done Something Odd
Posted: Mon Mar 14, 2011 2:53 pm
No link yet, because no news source I could find has a single word on it, but apparently AMD has instructed major distributors to delist their desktop processors as of the last couple hours, tops. D&H and Tech Data no longer have Athlon or Phenom SKUs available, only Opteron parts. Distributor reps are just as puzzled as I am. Aside from the upcoming Llano APU just getting its closed-door demos, I haven't found any signs of new AMD processors, which makes this...doubly puzzling, as that's just more Fusion 'let's own the low end' stuff.
Has anyone else run across this, perhaps with some more information as to why?
