AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D

9800X3D is a great buy for £450 - I think by March it'll be back down to this level or possibly £430 with a free game.

At £540 it's just too close to 9950X3D price, which is a 16 core beast and on a different level.

I wouldn't call it great at that price. When you consider that it is only an 8 core cpu. Having said that, I would pay £450 for one. Just won't pay nearly £100 over the top for one!!!!

Where's the 9950x3d price listed ?

£450 for the 9800x3d feels like it includes a premium for being one of the best gaming CPUs even at that price

9950X3D is gonna have the same ccd parking issue that's been occurring on the last few gens so in terms of gaming it might not be that much better but I agree £540 is just taking the **** imo
 
I have never understood as cheap as the amd's are why people think it is expensive. Like I went 12,13,14 th gen and they were all at least 650 ish maybe more.

It has been so long since I bought a flagship intel CPU for 450 or less.
