Deal | Ryzen 7 9800X3D is back at its lowest ever price on Amazon for a limited time with a free copy of Crimson Desert

The Ryzen 7 9800X3D launched back in November 2024 and quickly became one of the best gaming CPUs on the market. And if you’ve been waiting for the right time to pick it up, now might be a great opportunity, as the processor is currently listed at its lowest ever price on Amazon.

The Ryzen 7 9800X3D usually sells for around $479 on Amazon. However, an ongoing deal has knocked 10% off the price, bringing it down to $429.95, which is a flat $50 discount. According to the price-tracking tool Camel, the CPU has only dropped to this price once before on Amazon, so if you missed the previous deal, this could be your second chance.

In terms of specifications, the processor features 8 cores and 16 threads. It runs at a base clock speed of 4.7 GHz and can boost up to 5.2 GHz. It also includes a large 96MB L3 cache and has a TDP of 120W. Aside from the higher clock speeds, most of the specs are similar to its predecessor, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D.

We also reviewed the Ryzen 7 9800X3D and found it to be an excellent CPU for gaming. Compared to the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, it can deliver up to 25% better performance without using extra power, making it a very efficient upgrade. During our testing, the temperatures also remained within safe limits, with the CPU reaching a maximum of 82°C in our stress test.

What makes the deal even better is that you’ll get a free copy of Crimson Desert worth $69.99. This is an action-adventure game from Pearl Abyss that is scheduled to launch on March 19. Buyers will receive the game code two days after the processor ships, along with instructions on how to redeem it. However, make sure to redeem the code by May 23, 2026, as it will expire after that.
