The 1700 and 1700x can't drop much more but the 1800x could drop to 400 maybe.

Actually it is really close to 400 at some stores now. I think they might he trying to get rid of stock before the launch of threadripper so they may lower there prices on the 1800x even more when it launches.

It's such a worn discussion, i dont understand why it is interesting to discuss anymore.

 

Anyway, back to pricing... i'd assume so myself, it is just the wide range that seemingly will come will TR and the rumored price of 849 that seems that they have a very little span with ryzen prices being where they are. That's what makes me hopefull that there will be a drop, but i find it unlightly myself too.

Wait the price of a 1700 is 269 at some places? They may have already started to lower there prices.

I guess newegg is selling the 1700 for 269 right now so I would honestly take that deal because I don't know of you are going to get a better deal than that.

Newegg and amazon are not really an option for me even if they have discounts.

On amazon UK the 1700 is costing £282, still cheapest option in the UK but a lot more than what is charged in the US.

import charges are killing it anyway for me. Trends decide pricing localy for me so i am much more interested in that

God buying local only that must suck prices could always be anything at local stores unless of course you have Micro center which i highly doubt. 

 

Anyways Ryzen prices will not drop any with thread ripper the only CPU that will drop is the 1800X which is just a 5% better overclocker then the 1700.

Ryzen 3 i wish would come out soon but man it feels like its taking forever last i heard Amd was seeing very high yields on Ryzen more so then normal meaning almost all of the cores work to Amd's expectations that is probably why we haven't seen ryzen 3 why disable half the processor and sell it for only 120$ when its a fully capable 8 core. 

 

The good news to that is Amd has a little room to play a price war with Intel which Intel has already made clear they won't do it.
