AMD is bringing in new stocks for their flagship CPU, so start checking out online retailers. These high-end consumer chips should be available on retailers for a while. However, with the market demand remaining high, there's no telling how long availability would last.
The AMD Ryzen 9 5900X has been unattainable since its first release in 2020. AMD has provided consistent stocks to major retailers; however, the CPU rapidly sells out the minute new supplies come in.
In a good sign of things to come, though, the said CPU reached the second spot of Amazon's Best Seller of Computer CPU Processors. This indicates that more stocks at the right price could come soon!
