(Image credit: Future)

AMD's Ryzen 9 5900X is down to its lowest price on Amazon at $399 (opens in new tab). Competition from Intel's 12th Gen Alder Lake CPUs and new AMD processors on the horizon are helping to promote lower prices.

HyperX's Cloud II gaming headset is only $56 (opens in new tab) at the moment, which is a steal for such a great all-around set of cans. And if you're looking to power a 3090 Ti or just want some more power in your rig, then you can get Corsair's HX1000 1000W PSU from Newegg for $174 (opens in new tab).

The price is very good $499 in CAD. Has me tempted to pick one up even though I don't need the extra cores.

But I will hold best to save money towards an AM5 platform if I go that route.

Well, in your case, this is a rare moment where it is worth it.
Your platform is gonna be a live gaming pc well into "AM5+" You are likely gooed for another 4 years of playing games topped out . The extra cores could keep you live for a while longer, I'd sell your ram and cpu and get the 5900X and some 3733 or better ram. Youre relevant as you stand until the next console release. You might as well jump on this train. If I were you... I would do the upgrade and wait out until DDR5 or DDR6 hits 10,000Mhz .

I saw your sig and got pretty jealous

These are b-die sticks they can run higher clocks I just don't bother to push it as at 3440x1440 at 144hz i'm GPU bound.

You are correct that the machine in its current state will give good performance for the next few years so I would be more looking at the refresh of Zen4 and not the first revision stuff. And hopefully DDR5 will be in the 8000+ range and abit cheaper, no rush right now to be honest.

My system is already PBO tuned I do 5.05Ghz single core clocks on my best core. My memory is also tuned cl 14 with sub timings done, i've ran the memory faster than 3200 and while yes there are gain in synthetic benchmarks there were not as big in games. I've checked all this already i've been on this rig for quite some time now.

Originally build in dec 2019 with a 3800X and 16GB of ram and using a RX580 at the time. 5800x in it since Jan 2021 and 6800 XT and monitor upgrade came in Nov 2021. Also up to 32GB of ram also in sept 2021. Keyboard and mouse upgrades happened in 2022.

I haven't played csgo in many years. I currently play Halo Multiplayer online :)

As soon as Zen 4 drops at the end of this year you will see a nice price drop on the Zen 3 line so that may happen around Christmas.

It's already on sale for $550, which compared to the $400 5900X is out of balance.
