BH will not price match this item at all with any other retailer @dealpapa, in fact they actually just raised their "instant savings" price this morning of $519 to $539.99. They are sending a automated response to any price match inquiry for this CPU. In addition I have tried this last week, only to have the same outcome as today. How did you get this to work on your end?

I think that's one of the most generic technology statements I've seen today. New CPUs will always be coming out and the prices of old ones will always drop.
Unless they rise in price like they did not too long ago.

I think if you buy this with a BestBuy giftcard through DashDirect it'll save another 1.50%. $499 is right at the max limit of $500 though, so with tax it'll exceed it. I'd imagine it's possible to partially pay with giftcard and rest with cc.

This is a great deal on a great CPU. Got mine direct from AMD a few months ago, no regrets. Mine runs amazing on air with an NH-D15 (chromax.black). I haven't needed to undervolt/overclock yet, but there is plenty of headroom.

Not really a useful test. Puget bench isn't a CPU benchmark. It's an application benchmark. AMD outperforms in most Adobe products due to architecture differences. Most actual CPU benchmarks show alder lake ahead.

Have you tried? Is it working? Thanks

Sadly, doesn't work as of today (8/25). They must have caught on to the paypal coupon being offered.


I tried via auto PM, and via chat. to both Amazon and BB.

all good, ended up using a 11% bestbuy credit card coupon, so it actually turned out cheaper.

Quote from essix8 :
Zen 4 wont launch till late Q3-Q4 2022. AMD is lowering prices because Intel 12th gen (Alder Lake) with DDR5 and pcie 5.0 launches in October, and is leaked to perform 20% better in single thread and 10% better in multithread over similar AMD parts, like the 12900k>5950x, even in MT, performance from credible leakers and Intels architectural disclosures.

This is why AMD are doing a limited (expensive) Zen 3D launch in Q1 (production in December, launch in Q1), because they need a stopgap as Zen 4 got delayed, and they can only cut Zen 3 prices so much.

Every single CPU release I've ever seen has been met with conflicting rumors. Leaked performance data for CPUs has always been as useless as it gets. Engineering samples just aren't good indicators of performance of the final product. We don't know what stage of ES those CPUs are or even their clock speeds. It's even more the case when there is a significant architectural change as is what is happening with Alder Lake. Also, pricing has yet to be determined. If the 12900K launches as sub $600, would you expect it to be an improvement over the 5950X? Your arguments are entirely moot. It may be great, it may not be. We will find out when Alder Lake launches.

No kidding. Every new processor from Intel is the great hope that Intel fanboys hold on to for recapturing the price:performance title.
Im no Intel fanboy but Alder Lake actually looks good. That said, if it can't beat Zen 3 with more expensive memory and almost certainly more expensive motherboards it will be a dud.
