If there is one processor that can frustrate the 10 gen i9-10900K and i7-10700K a bit, it's the Ryzen 9 3900X. Now it's not confirmed just yet, but the 3900X has been selling for well below 430 USD in the USA. Here in the EU the prices for that processor have been lower as well, quite a while already.

If you read our reviews, the 3900X is battling the new 488 USD (msrp) Core i9-10900K quite well, the proc is currently listed at 529 USD in most stores. The 3900X processor is fast and agile, at 499 USD (msrp) the 10900K is fighting off that close to similar priced Ryzen 9 3900X, which offers two more cores at 12-cores.

In the EU the prices however already gradually been dropping towards a level of 429 USD. New rumors indicate prices are set at 409 USD in the USA already as well. Some stores like Microcenter already offer the 3900X at a staggering 389 USD, these are models that include a WRAITH cooler. You do need to pick it up though. The rest is

We'll see how long Intel's pricing will hold up, as it seems the CPU market is getting cutthroat. Below the price development in the EU for that 12-core Ryzen 3900X:

Wow. And here when the CPU dropped and I scooped it up for $500 after motherboard purchase discount I was doing great. Not even a year and it is almost at half price.

Sure if Covid-19 didn't happen things might have been even better in our consumer like fashion.

Seems like competition from Intel also helps AMD buyers. Interesting. Remember that AMD fanboy's

Competition goes both ways or more hopefully by 2022 will be 3 ways in the gpu market. Now we are talking about companies that are in the market to make money... Amd sold mainstream cpus at 1099 in the past during their athlonx2 &64 period before intel brings out the core 2 generation ....i believe it was the fx 57 . I am pretty sure they will rise prices as much as they can when ever they can
