A Push for the Higher Margin: Intel Reportedly Discontinues Production of Its H310 Chipset

[newtekie1]

You need to go cheaper (*insert inception meme here*), generic 200w PSU, Pentium or Celeron instead of i3, no Windows License, that would be more realistic... Then the difference is a bit higher.

Cheaper is cheaper, this is clearly not a first world problem that you can understand.

Except there are no Coffee Lake processor below the i3 available on the site, the i3 is literally the cheapest processor available on that site that can use these boards. And no one in their right mind is putting a generic 200w power supply in a quad-core system. But then again, no one in their right mind would complain about a $5 price increase...yet here we are.

No one with money to spare complains about only U$S5, welcome to South America, thanks to what you and the soiviets did during the cold war here, we are like this.

If you build something with those kinds of specs you are certainly trying to save every cent , so 3% is definitely relevant.

Of course , I fully expect the overwhelming elitist majority here to dismiss that but as difficult as it might be to understand , someone out there is counting every dollar they have to pay.

Also why do you make the assumption that this is relevant just to independent users ? If a company wants to buy 100 PCs , they will sure as hell care about 3%.

Not to mention Intel isn't selling their p45 chipset anymore. Can you imagine how cheap that would be these days? But no, greedy bastards just can't have enough of screwing the little guy. :facepalm:

Yeah, you yourselves bear absolutely no blame (as if you weren't even present). It's always someone else's fault.

Of course we have a third of the blame, thanks for your 2/3.

No one without money to spare should be building or buying a brand new computer.

So we stop production, return to the stone age, or simply be a colony again?

 

[hat]

Can't say much about the politics of the situation, but still, if you're building a new computer, a difference of $5 shouldn't make or break you...

If that's the best you can do, yes.

I can teach you how to make the stone wheel!

You have to admit that corruption and greed has ruined more [South American] countries than the US or Rudsha could, everyone has to pay someone off and that gets passed on to the consumer, which is really no different than any other country. So lets keep politics out of this and stop finger pointing, mmmk?

Yep, Newtekie did it.

Surely you must realize no one 55 and younger could have had ANY part in what you claim. Now, let’s get real and return to the topic of the demise of a product line. No one here can fix the situation.

Good thing about this is that finally Intel cheapest chipset has raid and more than 4 USB ports.

For about 180$, H310+i3 8100 are a very capable base for a gaming PC, and office one as well. They are deciding to lose market share if the article is correct.

huh RYZEN 3 2200G is Waaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy better than 8100 for casual gamer and Office Work,, A320 is cheap motherboard + 99$ 2200G that include Vega inside. people that only use for Office and want play some fun casual game like rocket league can enjoy
