News AMD Ryzen 9000 pricing freefalls, hits all-time lows — Micro Center slashes up to 28% off Zen 5

Wow US prices in freefall while AMD screws over the rest of the world to subsidise the cuts.
Ohh, so kind of like how the citizens of the US subsidize the entire world's drug and medical R&D industries.

On an actually serious note, this just shows how dominate Microcenter is with their in-store deals that are only available to people within a reasonable driving distance of one, and there are very few of them.

I think that’s more of a dealer thing than amd offering lower prices in the US.
In the EU dealers seldomly go lower than the msrp
Because they cant ... too much INCOME TAXES in EU (dealers cry from it) add 20% VAT to it , the consumer is #$#$%$ (he pays the dealer income TAX and the VAT)

The 9900X for $359 is pretty nuts.
Microcenter is a location lottery though as said, there are only 28 stores nationwide.
