Hey, I'm planning to switch from my 3600 to a 5600X in the next few months. AMD said it costs around 299$, which is close to 300€ including taxes—but I can't find it under 355€ and it's hard on my budget. Where could I get it at a better price? Also, my main concern is whether the upgrade makes sense given that I play Warzone on a 144Hz screen. PS: Thanks for your help!
MSRP represents the desired retail price AMD aims for the CPU; many retailers with the 5600X in inventory understand the limited availability and adjust their pricing accordingly. Consider that U.S. suppliers have added the recent trade tariffs—previously paused—that are likely driving up costs.
I understood that with my RTX 3070, bought for 600€, it dropped to 979€ a week later.
Your Ryzen 5 3600 remains solid, keep it. Experiment with CPU and RAM overclocking to boost performance slightly.
There is a verified seller on Amazon France offering the item for 355€, though it’s not within my budget.
I bought the MSRP, thankfully—it was one of four available. I went all in for it, costing me 449 CAD. It wasn’t in stock as expected, but I spotted it later. A third-party price went up from 549 to 799 on Newegg.ca. Wow.
