China has begun implementing guidelines that will keep Intel (INTC) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) processors out of government PCs and servers, part of a growing technological decoupling with the U.S. The news rocked Intel stock and AMD stock on Monday.
The Financial Times reported the new guidelines on Sunday. The changes also will limit the use of Microsoft's (MSFT) Windows operating systems as well as foreign database software. The latest mandates come as many Chinese government entities and state-owned enterprises have barred the use of Apple (AAPL) iPhones at work.

Will such a policy reduce component prices in China? Or, on the contrary, will the situation worsen, because China will buy more other ARM processors?
