I think they are going to be decent, and price will match performance, neither of these companies will be going into a price war. If they do they both get hurt, and for AMD, they want their margins to go up, that is a pretty big goal for them for the last few quarters. This is what I expect, an 8 core Zen will compete well with a 6 core Kaby. If that happens you will see the 8 core Zen will be price around the priced of the 6 core Kaby or just a bit lower $50 bucks or so. This will improve AMD's margins to 40%. Which is their goal.
This is what I'm hoping for, reality might be much different lol, as I have no idea how a 6 core Kaby will perform, assuming it can retain its clocks from a 4 core Kaby, 8 core Zen might not be able to reach it....
