I orderes a new 5700x 2 days ago fearing they might vanish forever as there are probably only stocks left.

I had one added for around 2 weeks in my amazon cart, but over here, in Spain, they went out of stock meanwhile, so I managed to order one from pccomponentes.com and I’m glad I did.

I still get to keep my 32 Gb DDR4 for a couple more years, hopefully.
