Ryzen Threadripper 2920X Plummets in price 1 day after Ryzen 9 3900X release

Ryzen Threadripper 2920X Plummets in price 1 day after Ryzen 9 3900X release

AMD yesterday launched it's Ryzen 3000 processor series, with CPUs soon up-to 16-cores. Earlier on we already made an observation as to the canabalizing impact on the Threadripper platform. Well, one day after the release the Threadripper 2920X (12 cores) plummeted in price.

Not that could be good or bad news depending on how you are looking at it. But if you were in the market for Threadripper, then you'll be happy to learn some of the new prices. 

  • Ryzen Threadripper 2950X (16c) can now be spotted for € 779 while the old price was € 899.
  • Ryzen Threadripper 2920X (12c) can now be spotted for € 419 (!) while the old price was € 599.

Of course, that has everything to do with the new ZEN2 based processors with faster IPC and a cheaper to purchase platform. Mind you that the Threadripper 2970WX (24c) also dropped from € 1299 towards € 999. Below a nice graph on what happened pricing wise ever since yesterdays announcements versus the Ryzen Threadripper 2920X (12c).

Yes I sometimes I do render whole day and some renders can take up to 12-16 hours, I do render in 4k or 8k and some renders are just 1440p ones

Yes I have worked previously in graphics and now I'm more freelance

Regarding the ThreadRipper 2920x I'm still not decided on this, will probably get one CPU and test it on friend board and waterblock have already fir ThreadRipper from Heatkiller IV which I bought last time and will do few tests abd decide on that if its worth it

Buying stuff or parts from US and Newegg don't want to do it, done it few times for friend and at the end I paid import charges plus VAT on top and actual saving has quickly evaporated or rather I paid same price like over here and sometimes I paid lot more due this I'm not buying from US, my brother have flights to US every month or so and he can buy me stuff there if I need but do I really need, probably not because pound devaluation in recent months or years is not worth it

Building another small PC not sure as I said I don't game a lot, if I do game then is lot less than most of you guys over here and therefore is not worth it for me, I don't do renders every day, sometimes I take break and just play games

I have built few PC mostly with 8086k/8700k and few with 9900k as well, mostly they're running custom water loop and usually are with RTX 2080Ti and I can directly compare them against my loop

For friend I will be building 3900X build with custom water loop and RTX 2080Ti and can compare too and then I can decide as friend bought already board and CPU should be delivered by end of next week and will see how it performs in some specific tasks what I do

If I would built only gaming PC then I would probably go with Intel too but 3900X or 3800X is better value than 9900k or 8086k and due this I would twice think about the Intel offering

Hope this helps

Thanks, Jura

I hate graphs that don't start at 0. Gives a visually misleading indication of the actual saving.


the graph literally shows you the processors were over $600 and then dropped under $420... its not hard to do the math and not every graph has to start at 0, this would just make for some massive graphs or graphs with very wide margins.

I have to imagine that the 29** processors do a great job, as far as Workstation Tasks go. The drop in price is also a fantastic thing to behold but, I will not be buying one, anyways.
