The availability of the highly anticipated Ryzen 5 7600X3D processor has expanded, marking a significant milestone for tech enthusiasts. This 6-core/12-thread Zen 4 CPU is now accessible through Amazon, increasing its reach to a wider audience across various regions.
Zen 4-Based Ryzen 7600X3D Now Available on Amazon
Initially limited to select retailers and regions, the Ryzen 5 7600X3D has recently made its way to Amazon US and Amazon Canada. Previously spotted in the UK and China, the processor’s presence on Amazon signifies a broader distribution. Reports suggest its initial launch occurred exclusively at Micro Center last year.
Currently, the processor is listed for CA$399 on Amazon Canada, equating to approximately $284 USD, slightly undercutting its $299 MSRP. Although the price on Amazon US has yet to be revealed, it is expected once stock is replenished.
Performance and Future Releases
The Ryzen 5 7600X3D debuted in May 2024 as a cost-effective alternative to the pricier Ryzen 7800X3D, which retailed for around $150 more. Despite the 7800X3D’s price drop to $350-$370, the 7600X3D has maintained its original MSRP, offering strong gaming performance with a 65W power rating. This makes it one of the most efficient processors for gamers seeking top-tier performance.
The tech community is also eagerly anticipating the more affordable Ryzen 5 75000X3D, priced at $269, which launched last month. This processor shares the 6-core/12-thread configuration but offers reduced clock speeds compared to the 7600X3D, yet claims superior performance over rivals like the Core Ultra 5 245KF. Despite its launch in North America and EMEA, it hasn’t yet hit major online retailers.
For those seeking a performance boost, the Ryzen 5 7600X3D remains a viable option, especially when compared to premium options like the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, which is available for as low as $399.
