And there goes the 1700X Flash Sale for 249 bucks WITH AMD wraith spire cooler (not included in box with 1600X, 1700X and 1800X). Pretty good deal.

Does this also mean board makers will stop updating software and bios for 1st Gen?..

no, updates will fix 1st gen bugs too, microcodes updates cover all line processors greetings

Good ! that means my chances of RMAing my 1700x to AMD and if their stock of 1700x is zero i will get a 2700x back have increased by a lot 😀 ... Guys this is no biggie , this cpus will still be supported and giving Bios updates and optimizations , it only means they are not making Ryzen 1xxx CPUs anymore 🙂

Should I just buy a 2200G then? It's the same price that I've been waiting the 5 1600 to fall back to, but seeing as they won't manufacture any more of those the price won't change anymore. I assume the 2200G will become gradually more expensive as well, is that a correct assumption? I'm afraid if I don't buy one right now I'll lose the decent price like I did with the 1600. (Over 50% increase overall in the price since when I started waiting for a sale lmao)

Well, 1700X is on sale for 299e, and 2700X is for 339e, i´d still get 2700X. 1800X costs as much as 339e, whopping -20e on sale prize
