Earlier today we covered a trio of great desktop CPU deals from AMD with the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, Ryzen 5 7600, and the Ryzen 7 9700X. All three are great gaming SKUs, depending on the GPU you pair them with and the screen resolution.
Speaking of GPU, if you are looking to pair up something with the Ryzen CPUs and have a budget of around $1000 then this Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 is a great choice for sure. The discounted card in question is the PNY NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Epic-X (purchase link under the specs table below).
The Epic-X edition packs addressable RGB (ARGB) lighting which gives you control over various lighting effects if you want your build to match a particular theme. Cooling is handled by a triple-fan setup, which PNY notes is tuned for both thermal efficiency and quieter operation under load.
