When the Ryzen 9000 was going to launch, many AMD users expected that, like every Ryzen release, this would also bring an increase in IPC. The launch of Ryzen 9000 disappointed many users, making its sales very poor. Stores were selling Ryzen 9000 CPUs below MRSP to get rid of the current Stock.
The Ryzen 7000x3D CPUs, launched before Ryzen 9000, still have great sales. These Ryzen 7000x3D CPUs outperformed Core 13 gen and were considered the best in gaming.
Even the old Ryzen 5 7600X3D was above the new Ryzen 9 9950X in games since, in applications, we are talking about comparing 6 vs. 16 cores.
Why it matters: The Ryzen 9000 CPU series has proven to be a complete failure, which caused a price increase in the Ryzen 7000x3D Series.
The video by Hardware Unboxed shows how poor the sales of the Ryzen 9000 are. Only a few hundred units are sold in stores like Mindfactory in Germany, where AMD totally dominates.
On Amazon, the best-sellers are the Ryzen 7000/X3D and 5000/X3D. The latest Ryzen 9 9950X CPU can be seen on the number 32 on the selling list.
Since its launch, the Ryzen 7000x3D CPUs have been considered the best in gaming. Now, the failure of the Ryzen 9000 series has caused the Ryzen 7000x3D to increase in price. We can see a price increase of 25% in the recent months. Despite this, the series is still the best seller.
About the price of Ryzen 9000 CPU it is expected that it will fall more in the coming months to the point that it is less or equal to the prices of Ryzen 7000x3D series.
