AMD's Ryzen 9 3900X is currently available for under £400 in the UK
AMD's Ryzen 3rd Generation processors are starting to become available at sub-MSRP prices in the UK, allowing PC builders to purchase AMD's Ryzen 9 3900X for under £400 at multiple UK retailers.
Right now, PC builders can purchase AMD's Ryzen 9 3900X for £399.95 at Amazon UK and eBuyer UK, with eBuyer offering gamers access to three months of Xbox Game Pass for PC.
At launch, AMD's Ryzen 9 3900X was available for £479, with CPU shortages resulting in inflated prices which could reach as high as £600 shortly after the processor's release.
At launch, AMD's Ryzen 9 3900X represented a lot of value for money for PC gamers, offering PC builders more cores than the competition and competitive levels of single-threaded performance. In multi-threaded workloads, AMD's Ryzen 9 3900X was king, offering performance levels which were competitive with much of Intel's HEDT X299 lineup.
With today's pricing, AMD's Ryzen 9 3900X offers PC builders insane levels of value, delivering sub-i9-9900K pricing and a lot more performance in multi-threaded applications. If anything, this pricing undermines AMD's Ryzen 7 3800X processor, as it offers a 50% increase in core count for a 33% increase in cost.

Apparently the starting price of £550 was because of low yields and retailer price gouging, According to various forums the price is going back to £450+ in the next week or so.Quote
I picked my 3900X up for £479.99 on pre-release order from OCUK 8 months ago, I don't regret for one moment paying that; for under £400 it's a steal and I hope many more consumers jump on the Ryzen train as a result of it.Quote

I love how quickly AMD reduce prices on their CPUs making them affordable to all.
Intel never drop their prices on released product. Not even right at the EOL.Quote
