Deals on PC components are usually hard to come by these days due to the continuing worldwide semiconductor shortage. This is especially true for hardware that can be used in gaming PCs, but Newegg's latest discount for the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X may be worth your consideration if you are on the hunt for a new CPU that should be more than capable of running all the latest games, like the upcoming Far Cry 6 for example.
