What?

I'm not sure where you learned economics, but you eliminate competition by undercutting their prices or by offering a superior or unique product. If Intel charges insane prices for this, AMD or whoever can come along and offer a fair price. Why would they be forced to charge what Intel charges? The contrary would be true. Everyone would buy the cheaper version and force Intel to charge less.

And I suppose it would be good to mention here that when you buy from Intel you aren't paying for the cost of manufacturing the product. Its for all the research they did to invent it. AMD does not spend much on research like Intel and that is why they don't do as well but can charge less.
