The Ryzen 7 5800X3D and Ryzen 5 5600X3D, two desktop CPUs from the Zen 3 generation that leverage 3D V-Cache for improved gaming performance, are reportedly no longer available through the usual retail channels. News of the 5800X3D’s cancellation comes by way of an article from ComputerBase, which includes a look at the performance of an alternative (i.e., the Ryzen 7 5700X3D), while the 5600X3D is listed as being “no longer available” from its exclusive retailer, Micro Center. Cancellation of these older 3D V-Cache CPUs come as the Ryzen 7 7800X3D continues to trend upward in price, per price charts that have been shared online.
The price of the eight-core Ryzen 7 7800X3D had already risen in mid-September, and according to the PCGH price comparison, the price has now risen by an average of 30 euros, making the price a good 100 euros higher than it was in June, for example. Prices currently start at around 440 euros including shipping.
