BB has the same price as micro center now, wonder if micro center will drop the price more?

Thanks. Ordered 1 for pickup in store. Gives me 1 week to see if a better deal shows up.

Mine says I can pick it up right now (10:30pm), which is probably BS.

Probably not. YMMV but gaming usually doesn't matter.

No definitely not. In fact even the 6 core 5600X beats 3700X So I would say 5600X is a better buy at $300 unless 3700X comes down to $250 which it will. It used to go for $264 with 3 pen drive on walmart couple of months ago.

Crazy that people see this as a good deal when it was this price in 2019 BF period...should be like $229 by now with a 4700x coming out.. AMD is months behind on the release front... perhaps 6 months due to corona virus.. this might be a good time to hold off on building a PC with processor and Mobo parts.

Wait for 5600x if all you are doing is gaming

Damn i cant believe i missed those 3 usb flash drives!! But yeah the price is disappointing for BF. I was hoping $260 or less. If one needs it.. but maybe next year for me. Not buying for sake of buyers remorse.
