AMD Ryzen 9 3900X Spotted Priced Far Under 500 USD, even 389 USD
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.

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:

Clearing Shelves? Maybe next product with same price will perform that much better.

I think AMD does not want to lose any momentum in the market. Personally I don't think they would need to drop price, building a gaming PC with these chips is a massive overkill and I don't expect many would do it. On the other hand, 3900X beats the "new" Intel comfortably in productivity. They probably don't want high shelf stock, with the pending Zen 3 release in a couple of months.
