AMD Ryzen 9 5900X Down to $399, Its Lowest Ever Price: Real Deals
Prices aren't Ryzen
AMD's Ryzen 9 5900X is down to its lowest price on Amazon at $399. 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 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.

Well, in your case, this is a rare moment where it is worth it.Makaveli said:The price is very good $499 in CAD. Has me tempted to pick one up even though I don't need the extra cores.

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. -

@ 1440P you might want faster ram... or overclock you are leaving frames out there.Makaveli said: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.

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.spentshells said:@ 1440P you might want faster ram... or overclock you are leaving frames out there.

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. -
jacob249358 It makes me want to build another PC just for funsies. Maybe when I can get a 3080 for under $900Reply
