Intel presented at the end of 2024, the new range of Core Ultra 200 processors for office computers (laptops were presented in the middle of 2024), it did it with a price well above what was expected when the performance was not higher than the 14th generation who is the one he replaced. As expected, sales have not been accompanied since its launch, which they seem to have taken to achieve in Intel offices
Offering a product with good performance-prix report is essential today to have market production. The most recent example is in the new graphics that AMD launched on the market last March. One of the reasons why the graphics RX 9070 XT AMD was sold as Rosquillas, it is due to an excellent performance relationship, greater than those offered by the Nvidia RTX 5070 Ti.
Intel reduce the price of Core Ultra 200 processors
We do not know the reason why the processors Core Ultra 200 Intel was released with such a high price, a price that has considerably limited their sales. If it was a marketing strategist so as not to directly involve that his performance is lower than the 14th generation, it was shown that it was not the way to follow and it seems that they have already noticed it.
Intel has just announced that the prize for processors in the reduced series Core Ultra 7 200 for office computers at $ 100. The drop in prices of processors is common because they are serving years on the market. However, it is not common for a range of processors with 6 months on the market, and even less, that it is the company itself which announces the drop in prices.
Processors affected by this price reduction with the Intel Core Ultra 7 265Kwhich goes from $ 399 to $ 299, and the Intel Core Ultra 7 265KFwhich remains at a final price of $ 284, after applying the same Dollars reduction. Obviously, it is the sale price recommended by Intel, a price that can vary depending on the retailer, taxes and prices of each country.
Intel underlines in the declaration where he announced the new price which affects the new orders, and not the orders which formalized the retailers. What does that mean? Well, don't expect the two Intel processor models today for tomorrow. Until the action of retailers, they will not make new orders in which Intel will apply the reduction of $ 100.
What about the rest of the processors?
Currently, Ultra Core 7 processors are the only ones to have received a reduction in their price. The series Core Ultra 9 With the 285 and 285K models, they maintain the price of 549 and 599 dollars respectively. The same goes for Core Ultra 5With the 245, 245K and 245 KF models with prices of 270, 309 and 294 dollars respectively. The price drop announced by Intel with the new overclocking profile of 200 years announced last week, they should be sufficient motivation to encourage sales of the Core Ultra 200 series.
