AMD Ryzen 5 7600 drops below $189

If you’re eyeing the AMD AM5 platform and don’t have access to the Ryzen 5 7500F, the Ryzen 5 7600 might be your next best bet. With six cores, it’s a solid option for those looking to switch to AMD’s new platform with future upgrades in mind, especially considering its reduced price of $189.

Walmart has taken the lead as the first retailer to offer this processor at its new lower price point. Initially launched in June last year at $229, the Ryzen 5 7600 has seen frequent price adjustments, but now marks the first time it’s dipped below the $190 mark.

In comparison to Intel, which now offers three Core series for its LGA-1700 socket, AMD currently lacks a cheaper SKU compatible with the AM5 socket and DDR5 memory. For users in this boat, AMD still provides options with its AM5-based SKUs, such as the popular Ryzen 7 5800X3D, particularly suitable for gaming purposes.
