When?

Hi , anyone know how much the reduction will be...
and can anyone tell me why the difference in price for a 2800+ athlon64 and a sempron 3100+ (same chip, the faster athlon64 is power rated slower by amd?) is so much more at amd than ebuyer.(uk)
amd.com ebuyer.co.uk
sempron 3100+ = $126 = £70.68 £74.02=£86.98 inc VAT
Athlon64 2800+ = $173 = £97.04 £81.88=£96.21 inc VAT

Sorry about the pound sterling but as I live in the UK this is how I pay for it

And although http://www.thedigerati.us/info/amdcpuchart.html has details of the new cpu's amd hasn't changed their website (as of 9.15 am GMT 11-10-2004)
