GPU prices are very different from ~1 year ago, esp. the higher end cards. Cards were nowhere near MSRP (in some cases 100% more expensive) when the mining monsters vacuumed the market of gaming GPU's and the pandemic made it more "difficult and expensive" for the electronic giants to produce GPU's. We now know that it was mostly bullshit since Nvidia already had the parts they needed seeing as how they're now sitting on a huge stock of unsold 30x0 GPU's.
ps. I'm not sure why the 3050 is higher than MSRP. The 2060 is on average ~35% faster than the 3050 and can be found 2nd hand for ~$150-200.
"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."
Apparently AMD is excluding the top tier 12- and 16-core 7000 CPU's from 3D cache. I guess that makes sense since they're not meant to be gaming CPU's but it's still a bit strange since they'll most likely lose out on plenty of sales of those top tier CPU's.

AMD announced retail availability from February 28, 2023 for the Ryzen 9 7950X3D and 7900X3D. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D launches on April 6, 2023.
- The Ryzen 7 7800X3D 8-core/16-thread processor is priced at USD $449
- The 12-core/24-thread Ryzen 9 7900X3D is priced at $599
- The flagship 16-core/32-thread Ryzen 9 7950X3D is priced at $699
The 7800X3D launches at a $50 higher price than the $399 price that the Ryzen 7 7700X launched at, before settling down at $349. The 7900X3D launches at $599, which again is a $50 premium over the launch price of the Ryzen 9 7900X—currently going for $475. The top-dog 7950X3D launches at the same $699 price that the 7950X launched at, which has its price slashed all the way down to $575.
So the CPU all Gamers were waiting for will be launched in April because that will make them grab the more expensive versions first. Gotta love marketing.

The 3D version of 7950X is seemingly slower by ~5% compared to the non-3D version in general computing while it's often ridiculously fast in many games. Hepp.

Just like 5800X vs. 5800X3D ?

I mean, ... I don't hate it. But the 13900K is available at lower prices in the meantime and it's really a toss, depending on your application or game.
13900K consumes way too much power considering the performance difference. I simply wouldn't mind losing a few FPS and saving tons of power (and temps) instead of going 'all in regardless of power consumption etc.' Besides that Z690 platform is probably a dead end anyways.
5800X3D, cheap B550 mobo, 16GB DDR4 3200mhz CL14 can be get for same price as 7800X3D cpu alone? you pay like double the amount for 20% performance increase.

Yeah, we could have 'Welcome to 2020s" banner on these products. So far I'm not jumping from my chair to buy anything AM5 related. There is absolutely no sense to pay almost 2000€ (!) for them.
