Should I buy a 3700x for €150?

Is it a bad idea to buy a 3700x now that Ryzen prices will probably fall? 

I found this bargain but I'm still not sure.

Wait

 

Ryzen 5000 will be available in November.

Well the 6 core 12  thread 5600X will cost 300€/£/$

 

To OP - I'd buy that.

I edit my posts more often than not

A lot of people are suggesting that once the 5000 series starts shipping, prices for the 3000 will fall, and it's a reasonable prediction, but I wouldn't be so sure. Looks at what's going on with RTX 2080 and 2080Ti pricing right now. Used cards sell for as much if not more than the RTX 3080 MSRP. The new Ryzen's are not cheap, and looks like there will no 5700x, so personally, I don't think we will see any fire sales on the 3700x parts anytime soon. If you see a good deal now, I'd say go for it!

Yes, since 5800x cost $450, i think that's a good price.

Wow, people are dumping it faster than i expected.
