If you're in the market for the world's fastest gaming processor, and you're trying to build a PC in 2026 that won't break the bank, then this fantastic Newegg bundle could be the answer to your problems. Fighting back against RAM shortages and price inflation, right now you can buy the new AMD 9850X3D, an MSI Mag X870 Tomahawk Wi-Fi motherboard, and 32GB of 6400MHz DDR5 for $799. For your troubles, you'll also get a free MSI Gaming mouse and keyboard (a starter set by anyone's standards), and a free copy of Crimson Desert.

The AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D is brand new from AMD, and is now the fastest gaming chip on the market (by a small margin). It does consume a fair bit more power, and the speed increases are modest, but if you want the latest and greatest, this is the only chip for you. Having just launched, it is holding fast at its MSRP of $499. That means that the X870 motherboard and 32GB of DDR5 are included in this bundle for just $300. Given today's pricing — the motherboard is listed at $259.99, and the RAM is $499 — that's pretty excellent value. Of course, prices are being inflated by the AI squeeze on parts, but this would have been a good deal even 12 months ago.


As mentioned in our Ryzen 7 9850X3D review, the 9850X3D is the fastest gaming processor on the market. Gains over the 9800X3D are modest, and as a standalone purchase, it lacks value for PC builders. However, in a bundle like this its pretty much a no-brainer if you're trying to build an AM5 PC in 2026.

The MSI Mag X870 comes with four slots for DDR5 RAM, Wi-Fi 7, PCIe 5.0 support, and ports and connectors galore. Finally, the RAM is 32GB of V-Color Manta XSky. It might not be a household name like Corsair's Vengeance, but in this economy, 6400MHz is extremely hard to come by at anything resembling a reasonable price. The current list price of $499.99 at Newegg is obviously inflated, but the cheapest 32GB DDR5 on the market right now will set you back $325.

Suffice it to say, if you're looking to build an AM5 gaming PC, or you've been holding off because of the part squeeze, this could be the perfect chance to sneak in a build at something like MSRP for this combo of parts. Just pair it with a decent power supply and one of the best GPUs on the market for unfettered gaming power.
