Newegg is now offering a bundle that gives you AMD’s 6-Core 3.6GHz Ryzen 5 3600 CPU plus MSI’s X570-A Pro Motherboard for $289.88 shipped.

It’s rare that we see a deal like this come about, so if you’re looking to build a PC, this is a great starting place. AMD’s Ryzen 5 offers 6-cores and 12-threads for heightened performance, and MSI’s X570A motherboard packs PCIe Gen 4 for extreme speeds.

Given you’re saving around $50 with today’s lead deal, why not put some of it to use to further help you build a PC?
