Ryzen 5 prices are falling
 

Under £200 for a top of the line

The prices of AMD's top-of-the-line AMD Ryzen 5 microprocessor has fallen to below £200 and is cheaper than the cut-price Ryzen 5 1600.

Apparently it is all due to the fact that the cheaper 3.2GHz Ryzen 5 1600, which can be overclocked to similar speeds to the 1600X, and has a Wraith Spire CPU cooler is super popular. Those who get a 3.6GHz 1600X will need to splash out on a cooler.

The Ryzen 5 1600X was first cut to less than £200 over the weekend by Aria PC, as a "super special price" of £197.94, plus £6.95 for postage and packing. A day later, eBuyer slashed the price to £188.98, the lowest that the Ryzen 5 1600X has been since it was launched just six months ago.
