AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D, the 12-core/24-thread Socket AM5 processor with 3D V-cache, is selling at a new low price of just $329. A retailer-specific discount by AntOnline puts the processor at a price lower than the launch price of the Ryzen 7 7700X, and Core i5-14600K. While we haven't had a chance to test this chip, testing by Tom's Hardware puts its gaming performance higher than the Core i9-13900K, with a multithreaded productivity performance in a similar range. The 7900X3D probably suffers from bad sales due to the popularity of the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, which remains the fastest gaming processor, and the 7950X3D, which is AMD's flagship processor.

That's not all, prices of even some of the recently launched processors for the older Socket AM4 platform are on a slope, which could attract sales from those that want to upgrade. The Ryzen 7 5700X3D is a slightly slower version of the 5800X3D—the fastest gaming processor for AM4, with a gaming performance rivaling the Core i9-12900K. This new chip can be had at just $229 on Amazon US. The Ryzen 7 5800X was once a solid gaming processor when AMD dominated Intel's 10th- and 11th Gen, it's now going for just $179.
 
What a great CPU price.

    That is a great price for a forklift upgrade to DDR5 system

    Solid pass, it cannot run fast enough ram at a low enough CL at least for me for the most demanding games, then their 1% lows are abysmal as well as their frame time due to being limited to the ram speed and cl they are due to the voltage constraints from the chips flaw. I will keep my 12900kf and 13900k to enjoy this on my 4090 at 3440x1440 DLAA+PT+FG+Max Crowds+Everything at psycho/max thanks to my ram being able to run at the speed and cl it can run at. Right now at stock that is as low as it goes. That whole area is a 1% low and the frame time you exceed 20ms its not very playble.... when that happens you drop into the high 40's to low 50 fps range with just slower ram with those settings or faster ram with the cl too high.

    I think prices are coming down because next gen AMD processors are coming soon.
