Amd is really pushing their weight around with these prices. They're turning into intel.

To be expected, not good, but expected. AMD are now in a better position than they were, when you are in that stronger position, you start pushing the line on prices. Morally it sucks and if they wanted to really continue to stamp on Intel, they should also remain price friendly. Underdogs are great on the wallet until they are not so much the underdog they once were.
