It seems like in the U.S., if you don’t have a nearby Microcenter, you might not be getting a CPU. I’ve been checking Newegg and Best Buy regularly and haven’t noticed any signs of them returning to stock. Perhaps someone else has more accurate information. It’s possible the automated systems are handling restocks—worth keeping an eye on that link for updates.
Checked falcodrin on YouTube. Found a video with a script that monitors stock across the web. Spent about a week watching it intermittently, noticing around four 5900x drops. Most were minor Amazon sales that sold out quickly, but I caught one during a Newegg drop. Had to combine it with a motherboard purchase. Received it within four days of buying.
