It appears you need to add items from four different categories to qualify, adding additional items from a single category doesn't appear to work. For example, if you select two different qualifying ssds, you still need to select items from three other categories for the promotion to apply. Certain accessories do appear to count towards the 4 item requirement now, newegg has changed this. The maximum discount solely from the 15% promotion is $200 (this doesn't impact additional discounts, combo savings beyond $200 still apply). The promotion "Ends 5/25/25 at 11:59 P.M. PT. or until funds last."
The cooler master hyper 212 v3 included as in the example combo of my original deal post was selected as the filler item since it's actually useful in conjunction with the other components, but at $27 ($20+$7 shipping), its not actually the cheapest filler item, you can technically get the example combo for cheaper.
The cheapest qualifying items I've found (to use as filler) are as follows: "G.SKILL AEGIS Model F3-1333C9S-4GIS" 4gb ddr3 ram for $11.99 (memory category), "Bgears b-Pellucid Mini - White, Steel + Tempered Glass, ABS + Mesh BG30149" fan for $24.99 (case category), "Silicon Power Ace A55 SU128GBSS3A55S25AE" 128gb sata ssd for $16.99 (storage category, under ssd), "Super flexible PSU extension cables, 1 x PCIe 8pin (6+2)" for $17.99 (cooler category, under fan/heatsink), "MSI HS01 Headset Stand, Metallic Design, Cell Phone Holder, Non-Slip" for $19.99 (accessories category, under headset). You may need to disable compatibility checker (toggle at the top right of the pc builder tool) for some of these items to be visible.
The deal thread for the previous iteration this promotion can be found here: https://slickdeals.net/f/18296680-newegg-combos-15-discount-with-4-items-example-gigabyte-b650e-aorus-elite-x-ice-mobo-2tb-wd-sn850x-ssd-32gb-corsair-ram-cooler-master-hyper-212-cpu-cooler-304-47
Additional example combos will go here (I might edit this comment with more stand-out example combos if anything jumps out at me):
GIGABYTE B650E AORUS ELITE X AX ICE ATX Mobo + CORSAIR Vengeance RGB 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR5 6000 CMH32GX5M2E6000C36W Ram + WD_BLACK 2TB SN850X WDS200T2X0E Ssd ( https://www.newegg.com/Product/Co...bo.4782454 ):
With "Super flexible PSU extension cables, 1 x PCIe 8pin (6+2)", $291.53.
With "Cooler Master Hyper 212 Spectrum V3 CPU Air Cooler", $300.22.
With "AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D" (must be sold by newegg, manually select newegg as the seller on the product page then add to build list: https://www.newegg.com/amd-ryzen-...6819113793 ), $572.04.
With "AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D" (much more expensive and not worth it over the 7800x3d imo, but some people just want the best), $691.89.
With "AMD Ryzen 9 7900X" (comes with free 1tb ssd), $552.71.
Alternatively, if you're dead set on the 9800x3d (much more expensive than the 7800x3d for a 10%-15% uplift in gaming performance), you can pair the 9800x3d with said combo for $691.89.
In conclusion: if you're not using your computer for anything more cpu intensive than gaming, the 9600x is superior. If you need a significant amount of multithreaded performance, or would benefit from intel quicksync, the 12700k is superior. If you end up going with the 12700k, make sure to get a board that supports ddr5, and you'll need a significantly better cooler and psu (due to the far higher power draw under load).
