When you’re looking to build a gaming PC you’re going to want to choose the right components, starting with a powerful CPU. They can be costly, unless you luck out and manage to pick up something like an AMD Ryzen 7 5800X for a particularly good price — like this deal, which brings the price down to the best that Amazon has offered to date.
Right now, the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X can be had for just $189, a 58% saving on the list price of $449. You don’t need to enter any discount codes or on-screen coupons, either. Just order your new CPU and start planning which game you’re going to use to put it through its paces.
This AMD Ryzen 7 5800X chip features eight cores with 16 processing threads and sports a maximum clock speed of 4.7GHz. Other notable components of this chip include support for DDR3200 and 36MB of cache. It will also support PCIe 4.0 on X570 and B550 motherboards, something to consider if you’re building a new PC from scratch.
It’s a few years old now, but this chip can help you play high-resolution games at high frame rates — this is the No. 1 bestseller in its category on Amazon for a reason and the reviews speak for themselves.
One word of caution, however. We don’t know how long Amazon will keep this price available and there is always the chance that it will come to an end at any moment.
