Earlier today we reported about the AMD Ryzen 7 9700X deal which is currently just $230. So with that deal you essentially get eight Zen 5 cores in a 65-watt package making it an excellent offer. Do not miss out on it if you are looking for a great gaming CPU at that budget. Check it out in this dedicated article here.
Speaking of gaming, AMD is also offering its Ryzen 7 7800X3D at a great price, which, despite being on Zen 4 is still one of the best desktop gaming processors out there. The part is just $320 right now. Not only that, the company"s more budget-friendly hexacore Ryzen 5 7600 is also a really good as it is on sale for just $170 (purchase link under the specs table down below).
The Ryzen 7800X3D is an X3D chip which means it carries a large load of 3D-stacked Level 3 (L3) last-level cache (LLC). This makes it really fast for gaming workloads. The 7600 meanwhile is a very good mid-range SKU that can be used for gaming or to drive a general purpose PC.
