UPDATE: As expected, the 9800X3D is again out of stock on Amazon
In case you missed it, the big launch of the new best CPU for gaming, the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, took place yesterday. If you were looking for where to buy one, there’s a good chance you were met with a disappointing ‘out of stock’ label. Well, now we’ve noticed it’s back in stock on Amazon in the US. You better act quick though, as we suspect it won’t be around for much longer.
The 9800X3D sold out within minutes yesterday at just about every large retailer, Amazon included, and people have been struggling to find one ever since. While it is now available on Amazon (for the time being), you can keep track of all popular retailers selling the processor in our 9800X3D stock tracker.

9800X3D available for $479 at Amazon
Head on over to the Amazon store page as soon as you can if you’re looking to grab this new CPU. Advertised as the “world’s fastest gaming processor” on AMD’s latest Zen 5 architecture, the 9800X3D is a beast for gaming – 20% faster than Intel’s most recent flagship 285K.
Retailing at $479, this is exactly AMD’s recommended price tag, so you don’t risk being overcharged like you may do from eBay resellers as we saw recently. At the time of writing, the 9800X3D is still sold out at Best Buy and Newegg, but we hope to see it make its return to those retailers as soon as possible.
