AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D Leads Sales Charts in the US and Germany as Starfield Launch Approaches

AMD Ryzen CPU sales are on the rise as we quickly approach the release of Bethesda’s next blockbuster RPG, Starfield. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D, the 7700X, and Ryzen 9 7900X are the bestselling processors almost everywhere. To illustrate our claim, we’ll look at some of North America’s most popular online retailers. Starting with Microcenter, the Ryzen 5 5600X3D is the top-seller at an MSRP of $229.98. The Ryzen 7 7700X comes in at #3, followed by the 7900X at #4.

For $333.98 and $404.98, both SKUs are well below their MSRPs of $399 and $549, respectively. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D ranks sixth with a going rate of $379, $70 below its marketed MSRP. B&H is even more AMD-dominated. Of the top eight bestselling chips, only two are Intel, the Core i9-13900K at #3 and the i7-13700K at #5.

The Ryzen 7 5800X3D and 7800X3D lead the bestsellers chart for $319.49 and $399, respectively. The Ryzen 9 7900X at $432 is B&H’s fourth most popular processor, followed by the 5600X and 7950X3D at sixth and seventh spots, respectively.

Amazon sees the Ryzen 5 5600X take the top spot, followed by the 5800X at #3. Intel’s Core i7-13700K and i9-13900K are the second and fourth most popular chips at $400.99 and $568.20, respectively. The Ryzen 7 5800X3D comes in at #5, while the 7800X3D ends sixth.

Newegg exhibits similar dynamics, except the Ryzen 7 5800X3D is ranked 10th while the 7800X3D drops to #14. Thanks to a $15 promo code, this is the latter’s cheapest online listing with a going price of $385 and the Starfield bundle worth $70.

And finally, we have the Mindfactory numbers from TechEpiphany. The German list is AMD-dominated, with all top-five CPUs from the Ryzen 5000 and 7000 lineups. In the top ten, we see only one Intel chip, the Core i5-13600KF, at #6. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D was the top seller last week, followed by the 5800X3D, with 590 and 310 units sold, respectively.
