While "insane" may be a term often overused, we did come across something which really is such. That"s because an AMD Ryzen 7 7700X combo deal is selling for just $500 today, $499.99 to be exact (buying link below). While you may wonder what"s the big deal, this combo, alongside that 8-core processor, also includes two 16GB DDR5-6000 GSKILL memory sticks, that is also AMD EXPO certified, and an ASRock X670E premium motherboard as well, all for just $500.
Here are the individual components in this bundle:
- AMD Ryzen 7 7700X (8 core 16thread Zen 4 CPU, 105W TDP) has integrated 2CU RDNA 2 graphics (so no discrete GPU required for display)
- GSKILL Flare X5 2x 16GB DDR5-6000 (with AMD EXPO certification)
- ASRock X670E PG Lightning socket AM5 motherboard
Get this combo at the link below:
- AMD Ryzen 7 7700X - 8-Core 4.5 GHz CPU and ASRock X670E PG Lightning AM5 ATX Mainboard and G.SKILL Flare X5 Series AMD EXPO 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR5 6000 Desktop Memory: $499.99 (Newegg US) (save nearly $500 over MSRP)

Important disclaimer: Neowin forum supervisor Brandon H noticed that the motherboard and memory in the above bundle has went out of stock, or at least it appears so when viewing them separately, though users can still add the items of the bundle as a combo checkout. Newegg in its disclaimers says:
Combos may be removed from orders if any item is out of stock, or if you order a quantity beyond the set limit.
Hence, users are advised against buying this combo as we are not sure if the checkout process will complete with all the combo deal items in the cart, or if Newegg will remove them during that as a consequence of being out of stock. This means you could end up paying $499.99 just for the CPU alone.
