Shoppers will enjoy reduced prices on AMD processors this month, according to a report by The Inquirer. The report says AMD will apply "instant rebates" to a number of its chips for a limited time throughout December, likely in an effort to draw in sales from the Christmas shopping spree.

The Inquirer reports AMD will apply the aforementioned cuts to the Sempron chips today and to the Athlon 64 X2 chips on December 8. AMD has also been selling some Opterons at slightly reduced prices since October, but those chips are older Socket 939 models. All prices will go back to normal on December 31.

Still not sure that they'll edge out the C2D on a price / performance basis, and I say that as someone who (before my current 6300) hadn't owned an Intel since my Pentium 90.
