AMD’s Ryzen 9 3900X CPU which currently reigns supreme as the flagship offering of the 3rd Gen Ryzen lineup is facing a severe shortage across the globe and in all major retail outlets. The 12 core chip launched back in July at an introductory price of $499 US but you’d be lucky if you can find it now & for the same price.
The AMD Ryzen 9 3900X launched as the first 12 core processor on any mainstream platform to date. Offering an abundance of cores and threads for multi-tasking users, the chip for only $500 US was an incredible choice for those who wanted the extra core/thread performance at hand. However, since launch, the chip has seen price gouging due to higher demand & surprisingly low supply, something that we were told be our sources prior to launch.
