I don't usually highlight bundle deals, but I will make an exception if they are particularly attractive. This is one such case: at Best Buy, you can bundle an AMD Ryzen 9 3900X processor with a 500GB WD Black SN750 SSD (NVMe) for $449.98.

The list price for the 3900X is $499.99 and the MSRP for the SSD is $139.99. While no one actually pays these prices (or anyone should), this bundle offer is still considerably cheaper than the typical price; the lowest price for the 3900X is $418.70 (unless you are lucky enough to live near a microcenter), and the 500GB SN750 SSD If you find one in stock, it will be $86.95. In other words, this deal saves $55.67.

In AMD territory, the 3900X is a great CPU for gaming; it's based on AMD's latest generation Zen 2 CPU architecture and boasts 12 cores and 24 threads, clocked at 3.8GHz to 4.6GHz. Whether gaming, streaming, or content creation, its performance is powerful.

As for SSDs, the SN750 is one of the fastest models on the market. In raw specs, it offers up to 3,430 MB/sec sequential read performance and up to 2,600 MB/sec sequential write performance. This is well beyond the performance needed for gaming, but at this price, you can purchase fast hardware without feeling like you've wasted your money.
