Hey everyone! I’m on the hunt for a boxed AMD Ryzen 5800X3D but I’m hitting a wall in my search. I checked both eBay and Amazon, and I’m coming up empty-handed here in the UK. The closest I could find were a Ryzen 7 5700X3D and a Ryzen 7 5800XT, but those aren’t what I’m after. Any tips on where I might score one?

Finding a new 5800X3D is nearly impossible these days. Even used ones are tough to track down since people who have them tend to sell their whole setups instead. If you can snag a 5700X3D, that’s likely your best option right now.
Unfortunately, the 5800X3D has been discontinued for a while now. Your best bet would be to go for the 5700X3D, which is pretty close in performance to the 5800X3D. It’s readily available and could save you some hassle.
Yeah, I’ve seen the 5700X3D available on Amazon, and it’s a solid deal. You might want to consider that instead!
Totally agree. The 5700X3D has made the 5800X3D pretty much obsolete, so it might be worth switching your focus to that.
