New Intel CPUs drop soon so expect AMD prices to continue some downwards pressure.
- I'm planning a 5600x build in the new year.
Next gen AMD CPUs are expected late 2022.
Between now and then there may be an interim zen 3 / 5x000+ release with extra cache 3D ram stack in response to the new Intel CPUs.
The 8 core 5800G is about the same speed as the iGPU less 6 core 5600x for heavily multi threaded compute tasks due to less cache, but obviously if you are doing light gaming or desktop use a much better value proposition in this era of GPU shortages.
Newegg shuffle is almost as bad as scalping.
You register then Newegg says you were chosen to purchase a still overpriced GPU and a motherboard that's been marked up 200% minimum.

Just reserved mine for later pickup. I live 1 1/2 hrs away from nearest microcenter. But we planned a tripped for this weekend and fortunately it's on the way. I have been eyeing this processor since launch. Thank you OP.

These APUs are definitely a good purchase for people who want to game but are having struggles with GPU shortages. Just buy this, game on it at lower resolutions, and apply for the Newegg Shuffle every time it comes on. You'll eventually get a decent card.

But you then end up with a way worse CPU when you get a GPU. Its better to skip these APUs all together, buy an overpriced 1030 or better GPU, then resell it when you get a good GPU. You might lose like $20 on the GPU resale, but you end up with a significantly better CPU like 5600x>5700g and the 5600x is cheaper.
Personally id wait for Alder Lake 12th gen in a month, the 12600k will be around $260-$300, but have 5800x levels of CPU performance, have an IGP (worse IGP than these APUs), and then pair it with a GPU when you find one.
I just got BestBuy to price match. I had $70 of BB rewards i needed to spend. I've been waiting for this in lieu of LP GPU market being a mess to migrate my build to a J-Hack Pure MK2. THey've been having SC issues and have been delayed for over a year, so now I'm looking into the NFC S4T(Tiny). I'm still waiting for them to answer questions on the kinds of builds I can do within it, so not sure if I'll actually pick it up, but at least Ihave it on standby.

How likely is it it'll go down lower than 299 by the end of the year, or come back down to this price during the holiday season? I'm wondering if I should wait until October/November so I have a longer return window.

Why isn't this a more popular deal?
