    Is there really a market for this? The 5800X is already so damn cheap, I can’t see why anyone would opt for a lower clock version for what’s likely to be marginal discounts at MSRP.

        In Germany/Austria it dropped to 280€ in September, hovered in the 300€ range in October, currently at ~320€

        I’m eyeing it and it’s been around $300 for at least 6 months (possibly even since Zen 4 launched)

        5600 is $210
        5600X is $245
        5700X is $300
        5800X is $325
        5800X3D is $520, only $10 cheaper than the 5900X

        Pretty sure they specifically meant the 5800x without 3D, which is actually quite cheap for what it is, in Europe it goes for like half the price of the 5800x3D.

      If their main use case is gaming then a 5700x3D will probably outperform a 5800x, while still costing less than a 5800x3D
