No, it won't drop the prices of SB. intel has not, for a very long time, dropped the prices of old CPU's when the new models arrive to market.
May have an impact on pricing in the used market, but not for new processors.
Sorry, that is exactly what I meant; I've been hanging out on the For Sale/Trade board too much lately.
I agree...Intel will just EOL them, so the official price won't drop at all. At least in this case they're using the same socket!
