Why is the Ryzen 7 5800x3d so expensive at £320.

Why So Expensive?

Go for the 5700X3D, much cheaper and hardly any difference between the 2.
AMD has discontinued the 5800X3D so this could be the cause of the prices going up
The 5700X3D is currently £169.99 from OCUK, the 5800X3D is currently out of stock so unsure if this will ever come back in stock again

Yeh, EOL product, if you really want it, you will have to pay for it, they prefer you buy the next gen and spend more money on that.

On a budget so was reading older am4 gaming pc builds. In the hope of offsetting the cost so I could afford a better graphic card. Been benchmarking prices a lot.

If you're on a budget then the 5700X3D is a vastly better option.
Which am5 is on same level as the 5700x3d. Just curious.

EOL products are always expensive, if you a replacement part it's cheaper to buy a new 5800X3D then to buy a brand new system.
For consumers consumers and enthusiasts I would recommend getting a 2nd hand one, you can't overclock them so they should all be stable and work like new.

Because it’s one of if not the fastest gaming chips on the platform and can feed highend graphics cards reasonably well.
Because it's discontinued and you should quickly buy the 5700X3D. OFC I didn't read all the similar replies first

I’m pretty sure AMD are still under contract to buy 7nm production.
The two bargain am4 chips currently are the 5800X and 5950X.
I see, best for gaming?
Depends on platform, Any of the X3D chips are the best for whatever platform you are on and your budget
Looking on OCUK the 5700X3D is back to £210 from £170 which it was recently but I assume this is going up in price due to the 5800X3D being EOL and this is the best gaming CPU on AM4

Can still be found cheap but I suggest jumping on one asap if you're on the fence! All retailers will follow once existing stock is depleted I reckon.
Depends what you can spend.
5700X 3D is better than 5800X and 5950X for gaming and is best (apart from 5800X 3D) gaming CPU on AM4. I'm asking for a friend on AM4 but its pretty obvious that regardless of the 'value' of the 5950X etc the X3D chips are fastest for gaming. I'm on AM5 with a 7800X3D so it's a moot point for me.
It’s not as simple as that as the performance depends on the game and other hardware choices.
The 5800/5950X at current prices are pretty difficult to ignore.

Because it’s peak gaming on the AM4 platform
There is only about a 5% performance difference at most between the 5700X3D and the 5800X3D and the 5700X3D runs much cooler and uses even less power.
If I wanted AM4 X3D today I'd get the 5700X3D without question.

It is mostly correct that the 5700X3D would be the best CPU for gaming.
