Amazon's CPU deals are currently offering up the newest Intel i9 chipset at the new lowest rate we're able to verify. Don't miss your chance to get one of the best CPUs for gaming for less today. 

The Intel Core i9-12900K is down to just $613.96 (was $707.50) for a huge saving of $93.54 off MSRP. That's the lowest ever price we've seen on this particular processor to date. While it received its first major discount over the Black Friday period, this price drop beats the previous lowest rate by $7. 

At the time of writing, the 12th generation Intel Core line are the only processors on the market offering PCIe 5.0 support, making them ideal for a futureproofed rig befitting the title of the best gaming PCs around. If you've wanted to save money on a stellar new build, then now's the right time to invest with this new lowest price. 

Alternatively, should you want to switch gears to the red corner, the AMD Ryzen 9 5900X is down to the lowest price we're able to verify at only $448.99 (was $570) - saving you $121. The high-end AM4 CPU has endured a turbulent price history over the past six months or so, with the previous lowest price hovering around the $483 mark. That means you're keeping an extra $34 in your pocket.
