Grab the fastest Ryzen chip at a discount.

If you haven't spent all of your money on fireworks, beer, and burgers, then check out TigerDirect's sale on AMD's fastest Ryzen processor currently available. It can be yours for $400.

This is the lowest price around for AMD's top-end Ryzen CPU. Newegg has it on sale for $460, though several other sites have it marked down to $420 currently, including Amazon. TigerDirect seems to have the competition beat for the time being.

In case you need a refresher, the Ryzen 7 1800X features 8 cores, 16 threads, 4MB of L2 cache, and 16MB of L3 cache. It has a 3.6GHz base clock and 4GHz Turbo clock, and can hit 4.1GHz via AMD's XFR (Extended Frequency Range) technology.

We suspect this is not the last time we will see a deal on the Ryzen 7 1800X, or any of the Ryzen 7 series. With AMD's Threadripper launch looming, there could be a push to move Ryzen 7 CPUs, depending on how street pricing shakes out.

For now, however, this is the best deal around for this particular chip. Go here if you're interested.
