If you were waiting to buy AMD Ryzen's 10th Anniversary edition Ryzen 7 5800X3D, now is the best time.
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D is Now Available for $349 on Newegg, Coupled With a Free MSI 240mm AIO Valued at $70
Right after the launch of AMD's Ryzen 10th Anniversary Ryzen 7 5800X3D edition, they started appearing on eBay for over $500. Even though the processor was officially launched for $349, scalpers tried to take advantage of this situation and started earning hundreds of dollars on the launch by relisting the CPU on eBay.
Since the launch, the availability of the Ryzen 7 5800X3D 10th Anniversary edition has improved noticeably, and one can easily find it for its MSRP on major retailers. At $349, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D feels a bit pricier, considering much faster options such as Ryzen 7 7800X3D for AM5 are available for under $400. Nonetheless, if you can find the 5800X3D alongside a free component, it is going to be a much more sensible purchase.
Thanks to Newegg, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D is now available on the store at a price tag of $349, but with a free AIO cooler. As you can see, Newegg is bundling the 10th Anniversary processor with the MSI MAG Core Liquid 240mm AIO cooler, which is valued at $69.99. So, you are essentially paying less than $300 for the processor if you combine the cost of both components.
So, if you were waiting to buy the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, it's the best time to buy the CPU, particularly if you were looking for an upgrade on the AM4 platform. With 240mm AIO, it's going to be easier to manage the thermals as well, but in case you already own a good CPU cooler, you may sell the AIO or keep it for upgrading another time.
