This article is so freaking dumb... 🤦 Hawk Point is a refreshed stepping of a years old product (Phoenix Point) so OF COURSE it's cheap!!!
The ACTUALLY USEFUL/VALID comparison would be Strix Point pricing now vs Phoenix Point's pricing when it first launched, which while not quuuite as expensive as Zen 5 is now was also SERIOUSLY expensive.
This is where Intel and their volume will end up winning again.
AMD might/should consider dropping TSMC for some of their lineups if they actually want to capture market share. There's no use for their good processors if you cant even buy them in the first place!
More and more Strix Point products are being announced, and none of them are affordable. A GPD representative has shed some light on it, claiming that AMD is selling the Zen 5 APUs at 2x the price of Hawk Point processors.
