AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D CPU Is Available For $499 US, A Better Deal Than The 7800X3D While It Lasts

wccftech.com:

The AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D has received a major discount at Newegg US and is now available at a price of just $499 US.

The 12-core AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D is currently available for $499.99 on Newegg, dropping from its MSRP of $599.99 US. This marks a -17% decline over the MSRP. You can grab this offer by visiting AMD's official shop on Newegg and applying the coupon code "MDSCS2343" at checkout to get a $90 discount.

Despite not being a budget option, this specific processor is something to look for now that the price has dropped. Due to the price reduction, the CPU is now more comparable to the 8-core Ryzen 7800X3D, making it the better-valued option. You are paying $50 US more than the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D but also getting 50% higher cores and threads and more cache. If you can grab this deal, then you'd be one lucky person.

At its price range, the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D CPU offers balanced performance for both apps & games comparable to the Intel Core i9-13900K. It features 12 cores, and 24 threads that are packaged within a two-CCD setup, with one CCD configured with the V-Cache and the other without. The chip has 140 MB of cache in total (64 MB CCD, 64 MB V-Cache, and 12 MB L2). The base clock is listed at 4.4 GHz, 200 MHz less than the Non-3D SKU, while the boost clock stays at 5.6 GHz. Additionally, the CPU has a TDP of 120W.

For those wishing to upgrade to the new Ryzen 7000 series CPU and harness the power of the Zen 4 core architecture at a bargain, the Ryzen 9 7900X3D is an excellent choice. We also saw some nice deals on the Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU a while back however due to the huge popularity of the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, we shouldn't expect discounts on that SKU any time soon.
