No fewer than 10 chips have become more affordable

In the wake of its latest product release (FX-4350 and FX-6350 CPUs), however quiet and stealthy, Advanced Micro Devices has cut the prices of quite a few A-Series and FX processors.

The complete list is made up of the AMD A6-3600, A8-3800 and A8-3820 socket FM1 APUs, the AMD A6-5400K, A8-5500, and A8-5600K socket FM2 processors, and the FX-4300, FX-6300, and FX-8320 FX processors. The price cuts range from 9.5% to 18.9%.

As if that list weren't already long enough, a bunch of older-generation Phenoms got cheaper too: Phenom II X6 1055T, 1075T, 1090T BE and 1100T BE, and Phenom II X4 840, 905e, and 910e.

As far as the AMD A6-3600, A8-3800 and A8-3820 FM1 are concerned, their price reductions don't matter, since none of them are available in retail.

The others should make suite a few people happy though.
