Ryzen 7 9800X3D drops to $444
The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is currently listed at $444, down from $479.
It has eight cores and 16 threads along with 93MB of L3 cache and a 120W TDP.
The discount itself is relatively modest at $35, but the processor remains one of AMD’s main gaming focused options because of its large 3D V Cache configuration.
The listed deal also requires a coupon box to be selected to receive the additional $20 discount.
Ryzen 7 7800X3D remains cheaper than newer models
AMD’s older Ryzen 7 7800X3D has fallen from $449 to $365.99.
The chip includes eight cores, 16 threads, 96MB of L3 cache, and a maximum boost clock of 5.0GHz.
Despite being from an earlier generation, it remains a notable option for gaming builds using the AM5 platform.
Its current discount is more substantial than the one available on the 9800X3D.
Ryzen 5 9600X falls below $200
The Ryzen 5 9600X is one of the larger percentage discounts in the current list.
Its price has dropped from $279 to $182.99, representing a $96.01 reduction.
The processor includes six cores, 12 threads, a maximum boost clock of 5.4GHz, and 32MB of L3 cache.
For buyers looking at newer AM5 systems without moving into eight core pricing, the discount makes the 9600X considerably more accessible.
Ryzen 7 7700X gets a $165 price cut
The Ryzen 7 7700X is listed at $234, down from $399.
It offers eight cores, a 3.8GHz base clock, boost speeds of up to 5.4GHz, and 40MB of cache.
That $165 reduction is one of the biggest dollar savings in the roundup.
The Ryzen 5 7600X is also heavily discounted, falling from $299 to $158.85. It provides six cores and 12 threads with a 4.7GHz base clock and boost speeds of up to 5.3GHz.
Ryzen 9 chips also receive discounts
The higher end Ryzen lineup has several price reductions.
The Ryzen 9 9950X has dropped from $649 to $496. It includes 16 cores, 32 threads, a maximum boost clock of 5.7GHz, and 64MB of L3 cache.
The Ryzen 9 9900X is listed at $332.99 instead of $499, cutting $166.01 from its previous price.
It offers 12 cores, 24 threads, boost speeds up to 5.6GHz, and 76MB of total cache.
AMD’s older Ryzen 9 7950X is also discounted to $476.07, while the Ryzen 9 7900X has fallen from $549 to $315.
Intel Core Ultra discounts are smaller but still notable
Intel’s discounts are generally less aggressive in percentage terms.
The Core Ultra 7 270K Plus is priced at $310, down from $319.99.
The chip uses eight Performance cores and 16 Efficiency cores.
The Core Ultra 7 265K is available for $323.98, while the Core Ultra 7 265KF is listed at $309.57. Both include eight Performance cores and 12 Efficiency cores for 20 total threads.
The flagship Core Ultra 9 285K has dropped from $599 to $498.
It includes 24 cores in total, with eight Performance cores and 16 Efficiency cores, along with P core boost speeds of up to 5.7GHz.
Current pricing covers nearly every PC budget
The current sale list spans a wide range of systems.
At the lower end, chips such as the Ryzen 5 7600X and Ryzen 5 9600X provide AM5 options below $200.
Midrange buyers have discounted choices such as the Ryzen 7 7700X and Ryzen 7 7800X3D, while higher end builders can move toward the Ryzen 9 9950X or Core Ultra 9 285K.
The main limitation is that these are retailer deals rather than permanent price cuts.
The source warns that pricing can change quickly, so the listed figures should be treated as current offers rather than new official MSRPs.
