Back in January, Intel officially increased the price of its 12th Gen Core processors by 10 percent, a move that was thought to help push the 13th Gen Core processors in retail. Here we are, barely a month later and Intel is now said to be cutting the price on said 12th Gen Core processors by as much as 20 percent. The report comes from DigiTimes in Taiwan and should as such be taken with a pinch of salt, but apparently the higher-end SKUs are expected to see the biggest price cuts.

Twitter user @harukaze5719 has put together a cheat sheet that gives us an easy overview on what we might be able to expect, if the 20 percent price cut is done across the board. This should make Intel's 12th Gen Core processors quite attractive price wise, as all models would end up selling for much less than they did before the 10 percent price increase. This would give Intel some extra leverage over AMD, which might be forced to lower its prices in turn, to be able to stay competitive.
