I'm having trouble locating items under $330, even used ones. Any suggestions for websites or places you might have overlooked? Thanks ahead!

Yes, it's still a premium component recently upgraded by a model with minimal availability. You're asking if its price is below market value—typically, this reflects the standard cost for an I7 processor over the past ten years. It's rare to find an Intel CPU at a reasonable rate, as Intel maintains strict pricing strategies. AMD usually offers better value for money.

I've been following that final episode, and with 45 viewers it's likely to soar very high.

Are you looking for something cheaper than a 9700k? It might be harder to find that price on a refurbished AMD processor.

I’m looking for maximum speed with a single-threaded setup. Absolutely essential! This is crucial for a project where a colleague requested the specific CPU.

Essentially, your friend is okay with it and I won’t suggest anything else, particularly since they already have the platform. I can’t provide an eBay link, but I can share a direct link if you’d like. I’m also IP-banned for no apparent reason.

It's surprising how many believe taking a chance and losing on a good offer is wise. A substantial discount? Unlikely to find one for a modern i7. Just last time I checked, you needed to go back to Haswell to secure a solid deal on an unlocked processor.
