Retailers preparing for Ryzen 9000 with new discounts
The 7900X3D is now available at all-time-low price.
There are several interesting deals on AMD Ryzen CPUs across two generations of sockets. The 12-core Ryzen 9 7900X3D, which has seemingly been on a never-ending price adjustment, has now reached a price point of $329. This is $60 cheaper than the last all-time low price, as reported in early March.
The deal comes from the US retailer AntOnline, who were the first to lower the price to this level. Currently, no other large retailer has a similar deal on this specific CPU. What’s also worth noting is that the 7900X3D is now sold for less than the 7800X3D , which is considered the best gaming CPU from AMD.
Another interesting offer is the 8-core Ryzen 7 5700X3D, which is the slower version of the 5800X3D. Both CPUs have the same Zen3 architecture and feature 3D V-Cache. This CPU was released at $249 only in February as an affordable alternative for gaming systems using the older AM4 socket. At this price, it could be one of the best budget gaming CPUs.
AMD Ryzen deals:
- Ryzen 9 7900X3D (12-core Zen4) : $329 AntOnline
- Ryzen 7 5700X3D (8-core Zen3) : $229 Amazon (affiliate)
- Ryzen 7 5700X3D (8-core Zen3) : $229 Newegg (affiliate)
- Ryzen 7 5800X (8-core Zen3) : $175 Amazon (affiliate)
Those who are not just into gaming, but would rather spend more money on other components, may consider the 8-core Ryzen 7 5800X, the older version without 3D V-Cache. This is no doubt not as good a CPU for gaming, but for those who really need high multi-core performance, they can now find this CPU at $175.
