Intel's Pentium 4 price cuts, applied yesterday, will probably garner the most headlines, but the chip giant also reduced what it charges for selected Itanium 2 processors.
Itantic 2 prices fell by up to 32 per cent. However, the two fastest chips in terms of clock frequency, saw their price-tags remain unchanged.
