				The first Athlon 64 X2 chips are roughly twice the price of Intel's Pentium D processors. The low-end AMD chip runs at 2.2 gigahertz and costs $537 when purchased in volume, while the high end runs at 2.4 GHz and costs $1,001.
 
 
By comparison, Intel's low-end Pentium D runs at 2.8 GHz but costs $241, while its high-end Pentium D runs at 3.2 GHz and costs $530. Intel also offers a dual-core Extreme Edition Pentium for $999 each.
