Discount hunters on Amazon looking to upgrade their gaming PCs with the Ryzen 7 7800X3D were likely ecstatic when they noticed that the gaming processor was available for just $349 last week. Sadly, the surging demand for the part meant that its price would quickly shoot up, but today, you have another opportunity to get a hold of AMD’s previous-generation CPU for $399, making it the second-best price that we have spotted on Amazon.
The increased demand also means that the Ryzen 7 7800X3D is now the number one seller for desktop processors, meaning that it is an exceptional upgrade for your rig. Sadly, those wanting to get a hold of AMD’s latest and greatest gaming processor, the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, at a terrific price will be left disappointed because it is currently available at an inflated figure, with the lowest amount being $787.99. If you absolutely need to have a capable CPU from AMD’s Ryzen 9000 series, we highly recommend getting the Ryzen 9 9900X.
Not only is the component discounted down to $309.99, it offers slightly better specifications with its 12-core and 24-thread configuration, not to mention that it is packing 76MB of L3 cache and support for DDR5 RAM clocked at 5,600MHz to eliminate any performance bottlenecks. However, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D currently flaunts more L3 cache at 96MB, and will give you the edge in the latest AAA games and esports titles.
However, we must warn you that with the latest discount, potential buyers seeking the upgrade will move like they have a purpose, meaning that you have to be lightning quick if you want to become the proud owner of the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. Remember not to get distracted by a plethora of discounted motherboards, CPU coolers, SSDs, RAM and other parts, because these components are available in droves, unlike the gaming CPU, so remain laser-focused in your objective and you shall succeed.
Update – If you have yet to upgrade to the Ryzen 7 7800X3D for $399, you are in luck because Amazon has further reduced the price of the gaming CPU to $359. This is an additional $40 reduction compared to the previous drop, meaning that you have more savings to invest in other components.
