It’s actually staying in stock.

I dont usually get this excited about a CPU, but theAMD Ryzen 7 9800X3Dis something special.

Thats the official launch price, which is great because I refuse to pay a penny over it.

The 96MB of L3 cache is what makes the difference.

It minimizes latency and maximizes frame rates, which is exactly what I want from a gaming processor.

I also like that its built for the future.

It supports DDR5 memory and PCIe 5.0, meaning your system will stay relevant for years.

If youre serious about gaming, this is the processor for you.

That said, you will need an aftermarket cooler, since AMD doesnt include one in the box.

Given how well this CPU performs, though, thats a small trade-off.

Plus you’ll probably want to buy a water cooler and radiator for it anyway.
