The DDR5 memory pricing crisis has sent the whole PC market into utter chaos, including pricing on AMD's flagship AM4 gaming chip. eBay prices for the Ryzen 7 5800X3D have skyrocketed to the point where these chips are being sold regularly for more money than a brand-new Ryzen 7 9800X3D.
Second-hand prices for the 5800X3D average around $500-$600 on eBay. Some of the highest-selling units sold at nearly $800, showing how desperate some buyers are to buy AMD's best gaming chip that still uses DDR4 memory. Average pricing for the Ryzen 7 5800X3D is around $500 right now, which is more money than AMD's latest Ryzen 7 9800X3D. Even AMD's slightly lower-end Ryzen 7 5700X3D is going for $300-$450 on eBay.
