Amazon is running a time-limited offer with an extra $10 coupon applied at checkout. This lower lowers the price of Ryzen 5 7600X to just $238.99. This is yet the lowest price for this 6-core Ryzen CPU since it was added to the platform.

In the past 2 weeks there has been no significant change for the remaining Ryzen 7000 CPU series. Even though the remaining Zen4 CPUs are going for up to 20% less, the 8-core 7700X still has some catching up to do.

AMD Ryzen 7000 prices in Europe continue to fall

In Europe, prices are heavily affected by US dollar exchange rates, which seem to drag the pricing even lower. 

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X, which is the flagship Zen4 CPU with 16 cores can now occasionally be found for less than €600. That’s €250 cheaper than it was at launch. Those time limited offers appear periodically, however the current lowest price (€604) is just an inch away from reaching this baseline.

Massive price cuts are not exclusive to high-end CPUs. For instance, the 12-core 7900X goes for around €495, while 8-core 7700X can be found for just €365. Meanwhile, the cheapest Zen4 7600X with 6-cores now sells for less than €270. In other words, Ryzen 7000 are sold for at least 24% lower price since they were at launch.
