Yea just wait as AMD prices would go down as we have seen in the past in the past 2nd gen and 3rd gen launches.

@databreach would amd prices go down significantly on all the models or just not the current gen ones

 

The current gen ones have already dropped, when Covid-19 is almost over is a good time to buy
