In brief:<\/strong> Now that Intel is finding new fans with its excellent Alder Lake line of CPUs, AMD is fighting back in the best way possible until Zen 4 arrives, by discounting its flagship Ryzen 9 5950X to an all-time low price. <\/p>\n

AMD\u2019s Ryzen 9 5950X launched with a $799 MSRP back in November. That steep price tag was backed by the kind of performance that made it our Best Value for Productivity winner in the Best CPUs list<\/a>. It shared the honors with the Core i7-12700K, which we said is more value-orientated, but that may no longer be as clear-cut now that team red\u2019s chip has been discounted.<\/p>\n

The Ryzen 9 5950X is currently down to its lowest price of $597.99 on Newegg<\/a>\u2014and it\u2019s still in stock at the time of writing. You just need to apply the discount code found on the item description page.<\/p>\n

There are a few other Ryzen processors that can be grabbed for less than usual by applying the discount codes; the Ryzen 9 5900X<\/a> can be dropped by $60 to $439, and you can get $45 off the Ryzen 5 5600X<\/a>, making it $224.99. The discounts are limited-time offers, so move fast if you want to grab these bargains.<\/p>\n

For those who prefer team blue, Newegg is also discounting the Core i9-12900K<\/a> by $14. That might not sound like much, but it brings the price down to a similar level as the Ryzen 9 5950X.<\/p>\n

Amazon did have the same $599 deal<\/a> on the Ryzen 9 5950X, but that CPU now appears to be sold out on the site. Keep checking for other deals as it tends to offer the same discounts as Newegg.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t be surprised to see the prices of AMD\u2019s Zen 3 chips, and probably some Alder Lake products, drop even further once the Zen 4 series launches<\/a> in the second half of the year.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
