This can be had for 300 to 330 dollars most days. Better than the Ludacris suggestion of 440 retail price.

Ludacris is a rapper, but most likely that person's favorite autocorrect keyword. Or maybe Ludacris is really into computer hardware just like Henry Cavill is.

2 chainz had to sell one when these were full retail. At least now AMD isnt like "i gotz no competition so we start at $300 now for a 5600x as our lowest tier" right after they dumped all the 3600's for $160 in 2020.

Actually, it's not:
For Most of the days it's stay around $450 for 6 months, then slowly move to sub $400 and stays at $380, just recently been cut to $350 and up until march when GPU price crashed, it's more available around $300 - 330.
So it's a bad msrp at first place yet took a long time to finally reach a favourable state.

Even so, it's lack of stock cooler all the time, compares to 3800x have a very good RGB cooler in box.​ By comparison, when 3700x/3800x reach end of their life, we got a hell deal of price cut to $250 and free Assassin Creed Valhalla bundle.

The incoming Ryzen 7000 series will switch to Socket AM5 (+ DDR5 RAM) and current-gen Ryzen 5000 processors on AM4 motherboard will no longer be swappable for an easy upgrade to newer gens.

Also, things have changed a lot since 2020. I was jumping for joy when I got the chance to get one at retail price in December of 2020. It's impressive how cheap you can get one for now, but I certainly wouldn't call $450 ludicrous for a great processor.

Thats because its just one big slab of silicon. Its like a 90 watt light bulb the size of a dime. The cooler running 5900 is at least 2 dimes lol.

My 5900x is much much hotter than what my 5800x was. Sometimes I regret upgrading.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

I think some people are confused - there are TWO 5800Xs
One is the 5800X3D (new this spring) and that is the one that has been around $450
This 5800X is the original

5000X3D

Aren't these AMD processors(5800X, 5900X) run a lot cooler than INTEL processors and consume less energy?
