About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
I was looking at bagging one of these from elsewhere and thought id check Amazon. The price changed while I was messing around in my basket so thought Id share, seems a good price to me?
I got it for £280.97, I hope it doesnt go back up

sorted byI highly recommend the Thermalright Peerless Assasin 120 SE (6 heat pipe) or the Phantom Spirit 120 SE (7 heat pipe).
Both on Amazon for £34-40 (depending on colour/fan lighting).
They are Noctua NH-D15 killers, fantastic value (I've installed both in recent builds).
The PA will do the job just fine, the PS is just a little better (around 5c lower with a CPU like this). (edited)
Needed a cooler too so looking at Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE ARGB CPU Air Cooler, 6 Heat Pipes Cpu cooler, Dual 120mm TL-C12C-S PWM Fan, Aluminium Heatsink Cover, AGHP Technology, for AMD AM4/AM5 Intel 1700/1150/1151/1200 amzn.eu/d/g…emw
Seemed to have good reviews and a reasonable price.
If you're just gaming and not streaming too then a 5800X3D is all you need on AM4 platform for gaming paired with a decent GPU.
This is gonna get HOT! (edited)
Only complaint, is that they can run hot, 5800X was one of the hottest 50XX CPU's and stacking more cache on top doesn't help.
If it ain’t so much of a hassle to sell my 5600x.
And I doubt the gain will be that worthwhile for me
Average performance increase from 5600x to 5800x3d is 1.5 % at 4K with 3080.
The 13600k is not only more expensive, but utterly useless to those wanting to upgrade their AM4 systems...
As for productivity, that's not the market this CPU is aimed at. It's still not exactly a slouch though. (edited)
( This is the last cpu ( generation wise) for the AM4 platform )
If you need MB /RAM consider AM5 instead or Intel. (edited)
Amazon 5 quid off voucher and this price finally sealed the deal, figure I may get 100 back for the 5600x in it's box if lucky.
Totally made my VR DCS and MSFS 2020 experience improve sooooo much from a 5600X.
I got it at £349 in the last round of sales. For those on the fence, just get it! Even gives a Intel 12900K a run for it's money in gaming. (edited)
I can see the product has had a significant price reductions well as a promo attached to it, rather then return the product and repurchase surely I could be reimbursed the price gap and promo
I paid 295 and the product is now 280 + 33% Off on Xbox Game Pass for PC
08:12Jhon adam | Customer ServiceOh I see.
I understand your concern and your point Jake
May I know if you have any issues with the item?
08:13 I wouldn't normally be bothered but its over a 5% price decrease plus an added promo
no its fantastic I would like to keep it ideall
08:14Jhon adam | Customer ServiceI understand.
If I were on your side, I will also feel how you feel right now.
I am also a customer outside this job and I will feel the same way as you do.
Unfortunately Jake, we really don't have any option to process post-order price adjustments.
We work hard to make sure our prices are as competitive as possible and may from time to time change our prices.
As much as I would really love to reimburse the price difference of the product.
I am afraid that we don't have an option to do so.

08:16 okay thankyou anyway
Hoping for a decent boost in VR.
Ohhh how low will it go?!
23 Game AverageWhen CPU limited, the 5800X3D offers Ryzen 5 3600 owners massive performance gains. Using the Radeon 6950 XT at 1080p we see on average 48% greater 1% lows, with average frame rates boosted by 46%. Even at 1440p, the 5800X3D provided up to 35% greater performance on average.
As you'd probably expect, the margins with the Radeon 6600 XT are greatly reduced, but even so at 1080p the 5800X3D was on average up to 24% faster, but then just 13% faster at 1440p.
Not sure if worth it unless you got high end GPU??? (edited)
All the reviews say 1080p gaming (esports) which I don’t do
My cpu is 3600 with 3080ti
Was looking at am5 upgrade but still to many problems with the boards and memory timings
