The launch of AMD Ryzen 9000 disappointed many AMD users, resulting in poor sales. Stores were giving huge discounts to get rid of the current stock to make space for the upcoming Ryzen 7 9800X3D, which has already been leaked.
They were announced at Computex 2024, and AMD Ryzen 9000 CPUs began shipping approximately a month later. Due to this, AMD outperformed rival Intel and released the new generation of CPUs far earlier than expected.
Why it matters: The price seems fair enough as the CPU is pictured as the ultimate processor for elite gaming, and a leaked benchmark shows clock speeds between 5.6 and 5.7GHz.
This decision wasn’t entirely successful. The new CPUs didn’t appear viable compared to the Ryzen 7000 because of their poor performance. Updating Windows 11 to the latest version was the only option to get them to function better and remain viable.
It seems reasonable that the originals will be less expensive before the X3D versions are released in an effort to attract new clients. The Ryzen 9 9950X is currently 7% cheaper at $599 on sites like Newegg, while the Ryzen 9 9900X is now 14% cheaper at $429.
In contrast, the Ryzen 7 9700X is now down 8.9% at $326.75, while the Ryzen 5 9600X is down 3.8% at $249 that same day. These processors are less expensive, and they also come with free copies of Unknown 9: Awakening and Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2.
On the other hand, the price of the Ryzen 7 9800x3D appears to be around $484 to $524.64. The first listing of the product, Ryzen 7 9800x3D, can be seen on TechAmerica and ShopBLT with the product code 100-000001084.
This 8-core, 16-thread 120W processor is set to outperform Intel CPUs in gaming performance. The Ryzen 7 9800x3D is expected to be announced on October 25th. The Ryzen 9000 CPUs are on Newegg at a price below the MRSP.
