The prices look rubbish. £400 for an 8C CPU.

A Ryzen 7 3700X is cheaper than a Ryzen 5 5600X.

It's just you and me I'm afraid.

Everybody else is happy with £400 for the cheapest 8c. The only 8c.

FFS. Ah well. I don't have to buy it

Its actually £450 for an 8C,but you can get a Ryzen 9 3900 for £325.

i bet you there will be a 5700X SKU that is cheaper...anyway 3000 seris CPU prices wont be dropping much on the back of these.

The Ryzen 5 5600X is $300,ie,the price of the Ryzen 7 3700X.
