By keeping the price down they can sell to a larger market.

The AMD Phenom 6 core is just over 200 and is freaking amazing. Why would anyone buy intel anymore?

Few people will fully utilize 6 cores. Games aren't encoded for them yet. Only creative designers really need that for now. Besides, 125w processor! My Intel only draws about 38 watts at load, running 3.6ghz
