It was $185 at Newegg for about a day before this. I think Amazon changes their prices to meet or beat their competitors. Crafty!

If temps are a concern, get the 5700x
If you are doing any productivity work, video/photo compiling ect along with gaming, get the 5900x.
If neither is of any major concern, get this one.

Got this deal price matched at Microcenter. I bought this CPU a week ago, imagine my surprise when I saw this deal. Good price, good buy.

Better off getting the 5800x3d bundle for $320 and selling the mobo and ram and your old cpu

Thanks for the advice, but I didn't want a new motherboard. Just getting a CPU for 175$ was what I needed.

I got the peerless assassin for around 35$. From what I heard, it was considered pretty good for that price range.

But you could have a 5800x3d for $175, I get it though. I'm in the same boat and I'm lazy but I think I could sell my 2700x, ram and mobo for $150.

This or the 5700x3d for $229? I'm mainly going to be gaming and I've heard the 3D versions are the way to go but I'm unsure about the 5700x3d

So funny story. I actually got the 5800X3D price matched with this deal. So, I always wanted the X3D, but I missed this was just the X, the microcenter manager missed it, and the person I submitted the ticket through the microcenter website missed the difference. So, all's well that ends well?

This is better value than the 5700X3D at this price. Close call though.

You should probably get the 5700X3D over the 5800X3D at 300$ if you go that route. 229$ seems like better value in that case.
