I'm hoping it hits $299.99 for BF deals.

I am on the same boat. As DDR5 price drops a lot, it is more and more attractive to consider 7000 series.

Amazon has a lightning deal last month for $335, so I'd expect a drop for BF.

Might be a nice upgrade for someone on a compatible motherboard, but if building a system from scratch I'd probably either get something cheaper (like the 5600) or get the next generation (e.g. 7600X). Total system cost will be higher with the 7600X, but you're on a platform that's not dead.

I wont buy now. Given the strong competition from Intel, these price needs to be significantly lower. Hope it would happen soon around BF!

Yeah I'm waiting myself. I have a 3900X, so it's like a 15% upgrade. Not huge, but it's the cheapest upgrade I have with am4

Just a tip:
If you're buying this for a gaming build you'll be better off with a 5800x3d. Otherwise this is the best AM4 processor available.
