Right now at Amazon, users can find the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D CPU for its lowest price to date. This processor has been priced around $320 lately but right now is marked down to just $269.

We reviewed the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D when it first debuted and recognized it at the time as of the fastest processors for its price. Today’s discount only enhances that benefit. Our biggest drawbacks were its lack of overclocking support and integrated graphics. It has great performance and is currently at a price well worth a look if you're on an AM4 motherboard.

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D is currently marked down to $269, its lowest price ever, at Amazon. This is an 8-core processor with 16 threads capable of reaching processing speeds as high as 4.5 GHz.

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D has 8 cores and a total of 16 threads. It has a base speed of 3.4 GHz but can reach 4.5 GHz with Max Boost enabled. According to the official specifications from AMD, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D has 96MB of L3 cache.

User’s can expect PCIe 4.0 support as well as the ability to install up to 128GB of DDR4-3200. This processor does not come with a stock cooler and you’ll definitely be better off using a liquid cooler to get the most out of it performance-wise.

    I seen it yesterday for 269 and it disappeared. I got mine at the Mayfield Heights Ohio Micro Center for $259.99 with a $25 off any CPU coupon that expires the 15th or 16th for $253.xx.

    Including sales tax in that price.

    It definitely does NOT need a water cooler for optimal performance, but it depends on what kind of air cooler your case can accommodate. I run this with a Noctua NH-D15 in a Fractal Design Meshify S2 with stock case fans. Game several hours per session and it stays well within its thermal limits at mostly highest game settings with a 3080 pushing 3440x1440 in Cyberpunk 2077 for instance. Fans don't even get that loud except for brief stints. I held off on upgrading my 3700x to the 5800X3D because of all the statements about how hot it gets. Wish I had pulled the trigger way earlier. Would I put it in a compact case with poor air flow? Probably not.

    Damn this tempting. I'm 3 mins away from microcenter. Wonder if it's worth replacing my 5600.
