145$ and 290$ at select Walmarts for the 7800x3d . I only have it for 290$ near me. If anyone finds it for 145$ I'll pay them to ship it too me lol. So the 9800xd at 300$ would be nice asf

Best Buy should match if you don't have Micro Center near you.

Even Amazon dropped it to $420. This and the random motherboard sales for pennies shows the retailers recognize the RAM (plus GPU and stoge) prices are really affecting the market.

Hit or miss with BB. I've been told you need to be a certain number of miles from a MC. Others have matched it though. You know how BB is. For the most part if they can stiff you they will.

Is there any new architect coming out soon that is worth it to wait? Or should I jump on this. Plan on building my PC by the end of the year.

Not the best price, but the cheapest I've seen for the 9800X3D this year (outside of MicroCenter).

No RAM kills this deal, unless youre upgrading from another AM5 CPU (why???)
Since this is a Microcenter deal, youre better off buying one of their bundles, CPU+RAM+Mobo as thats the only way you get RAM for cheap these days. Like thew 270k Plus bundle is faster everywhere except some games, 32GB of DDR5, and premium motherboard for $600, the RAM alone is worth more than half the cost..
