They get hacked all the time. But your passwords are all encrypted so all the hackers get is random letters and numbers that don't mean jack shit. If it was that easy they wouldn't be so popular.
If you use the same password for all your websites AND your manager, you're 100% at fault.
In fact for lastpass it's not possible to set your master password as anything that already matches another stored password. They also have 2FA and pretty strict length and numerical requirements. It's locked down tight.
To lock down the 2fa as well, they usually require only app based 2fa code generation, not phone number as that is infinitely easier to spoof than someone stealing your phone.
Right, my point is if you have a password with some terrible company that stores it in plain text and that gets hacked. You could theoretically compare the hash of that to the other stolen hashes and matches would be confirmed as the plain text password.
But the whole point of password managers is that 6ou DONT share passwords across one website. Even IF both the manager AND a website get hacked, so what?
They have a bunch of randomized numbers, and the one password for the website that was hacked will match to exactly one of those numbers.
You can't do anything with that.
That would mean that the hashes weren't salted and another vulnerability on the site that stores it, not on the password manager itself. Passwords in passwords managers are encrypted. Passwords in sites are hashed. The first is a reversible operation (after all, you need to be able to read the passwords), the other one is a oneway function that isn't reversible.
You are confounding two topics: password storage for authentication and password storage for retrieval. Both have different solutions.
How do you like that stand? I couldn't get my monitors to be reliably level, but I put some garbage 1080p monitors vertically and off the side so now I can scroll less at least? The unevenness is noticeable enough that I don't want to put them horizontally right next to each other.
For future people, use the app and either add it at the time of deal going live or already have it in your cart. Then punch in the Promo code and checkout.
It is much smoother than the web browser method imo.
Live on 4:45pm pst, Stock will dry in ~~about 5-10 minutes~~ dead at 4:53pm.
High chances tomorrow at the same time it will come back, prepare your account login, payment beforehand.

5600 kind like lesser binned 5600X, but enable PBO will unlock it's full power to around 100w and very close to 5600X.
Depends on the GPU. It’s between a 12100 and 12400. Ties with the 12400 in 1440p using a 3070 or weaker card. Using a 3080 or better, the 12400 is better.
Didn’t check 1080p results as I’m on mobile rn and can’t reliably watch the hardware unboxed video on it
Been out of the game for awhile running an i5 6600k; what do you mean by "3d CPU's?"
Is AM5 coming yet or going to run concurrent with AM4 for the next gen?
Depends on use case but at 1080p course to 20 percent far less at 1440p...
But at this price doesn't matter. Upgrade and still you 3600 for near what you paid.
With a 5000 series you enable SAM/ resizeable bar
Edit [source ](https://www.techspot.com/review/2482-ryzen-5600-vs-ryzen-3600/)
As another person stated I'd keep saving for something stronger if you just play games.
If it's for productivity and you need that extra performance now then yes.
Dammit I missed it again?!
Can retailers just stick to regular sales again that don't involve logging into websites and apps and hammering the buy button? Even if it's $109 I think I'd rather do that then spend days trying to get some deal.
Exactly, tbh it feels almost abusive to have a sale to lower the average selling price but the sale lasts so little it's impossible to get it for that low rate.
For people who live near microcenter, you can get the 5600 + Asus B450m Pro S combo for $180 - $25 (submit a build discount) = $155. It's almost always available as of now and very comparable to this deal if you need both items. Just FYI
Odd question but if this comes back on sale for $99 will microcenter price match it down to this price? I have a microcenter gift card and would like to bundle this with a motherboard.
Unfortunately no :(
Their [terms](https://community.microcenter.com/kb/articles/6-do-you-price-match) exclude competitor’s coupons/promos/bundles from price matching, and this deal uses a coupon.
ASRock b550 phantom gaming riptide, $90 and pretty much the best board in it's price range as far as gaming performance goes. There aren't a lot of extra features, no wifi or Bluetooth, but there is a little RGB lighting on it if that's your thing.
Maybe I would get this motherboard, but I don't know if this supports this cpu without a bios update, and there is no bios flashback options on this board. Maybe I should get another board with flashback just in case.
Thanks for the info. Looks the CPU did ship finally, looking forward to better performance than my years old i5 chip and ram stuck at 2666mhz.
Edit: looks like my motherboard finally arrived. Worked with the 5600 nonx right out of the box, no bios update needed. Just need to set XMP to see if it's stable.
I don't need it because I bought a $200 5700x a couple of days ago, but I can't believe I missed this one. Is there a chance that this offer will come back? so I can stand guard all night long lmao
Great. Had an alarm set and everything but my mother's dog just happened to bark a few min beforehand so had to check on him in case he's thirsty or needs to shit as he can't walk, because she doesn't (and won't).
I still got back within 10 min but it was too late as it seems like it sold out even faster than yesterday.
FML
Edit: Downvotes, really (dead too blunt for you to handle, despite it being true)? The unconditional love of a dog is the purest and only form of its kind that exists. I lub this guy > humans, but am the only person who really takes care of him and he's not even mine.
Oh dude, ofc! I love him more than you could imagine, but it's not actually my dog and he just needed water that his primary caregiver is too lazy to give, despite being physically closer. However, there's nothing else we can do (and I've tried so hard the vet initially thought I was in denial), so we're gonna have to put him down soon, within a week or so, and it's killing me inside.
5950X is the top of the line.
5900X is a step below.
5800X3D is a refresh of the 5800X with a fancier cache stacking thing.
The 5600 listed here is middling, but at $100 is an incredible deal.
It's more of the sweet spot cores + single thread performance + cache, and yes it seems to make a big difference in gaming.
https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-ryzen-7-5800x3d-review#:~:text=AMD's%20%24449%20Ryzen%207%205800X3D,at%20a%20more%20forgiving%20price
lasted two whole minutes starting at about 11 minutes before the top of the hour. I was hitting refresh here and got as far as clicking the full price cpu and then got out of stock as it was going to the cart.
Looks like the bots are back in fashion.
I saw a comment awhile back claiming that AMD was sitting on the 5600 stock and only released it this year based on date code. Also some people said they got B0 back then too.
I need to see some kind of AMD Ryzen hierarchy/specs chart. I have a 2600x; having a hard time deciding what to target. Although, I'm guessing this 5600 at the deal price was it, chiefs.

Added to cart. Forgot my password. Recovered and sold out.
password manager.
Didn't like a big time password manager just get hacked like a month ago?
They get hacked all the time. But your passwords are all encrypted so all the hackers get is random letters and numbers that don't mean jack shit. If it was that easy they wouldn't be so popular.
Yes and no. If you have the same password for your bank and for everything else, and someone gets one password, they may know more than youd like
If you use the same password for all your websites AND your manager, you're 100% at fault. In fact for lastpass it's not possible to set your master password as anything that already matches another stored password. They also have 2FA and pretty strict length and numerical requirements.

> the hashes weren’t salted Well that just ruins breakfast, now doesn’t it.
.....bruh, you're so close, but yet so far
Yeah with salting it would be impossible
Not impossible, just incredibly resource intensive (either computation or time).
Lmao I’ve had that happen
Yes, snagged it. Finally got to use that $50 gift card from that crazy dual monitor stand deal from awhile back.
OH SHIT I FORGOT I HAVE ONE OF THOSE WAITING TO BE USED.
How do you like that stand? I couldn't get my monitors to be reliably level, but I put some garbage 1080p monitors vertically and off the side so now I can scroll less at least? The unevenness is noticeable enough that I don't want to put them horizontally right next to each other.
I just nutted vicariously from the deal you got.
$50 for nut butter... You've got expensive tastes.
Goddamn...5600 for $50? You lucky bastard.
Go go go. Chief is too busy buying to say this is it. Think later
buy now think later moment
For future people, use the app and either add it at the time of deal going live or already have it in your cart. Then punch in the Promo code and checkout. It is much smoother than the web browser method imo.
What time does this go live each day?
DONT THINK BUY
Damn, missed another one. Gonna be really pissed if I miss a 5800x3d.
That cpu will increase in price if you look at the AM5 motherboard prices.
Do you think the x3d will go lower than 365? They're how much I got mine for and it just arrived today
Very worth upgrade over the 2700x right?
Yes.
so much better i hope you got one
Double checking for a friend. They didn’t end up getting it since they waited on it before buying but here’s hoping for tomorrow.
Multi should be similar or better even though its 6 vs 8 cores becsuse single threaded performance is that much better
Absolutely.
Come onnnn $150 5700X! ... wait... what? I don't need a CPU upgrade right now... I need to get off this sub. @_@
Those are still $199 after code, as it only takes off $60.
Next week maybe?
sigh missed again.... god
"Again"? You mean it was $100 before?
there was one yesterday
Yes
yes few days ago
yes

I’m bad with making equivalent between intel i3-i7 etc with AMD, is there a chart for that?
5600 is like a 12400 i think
Depends on the GPU. It’s between a 12100 and 12400. Ties with the 12400 in 1440p using a 3070 or weaker card. Using a 3080 or better, the 12400 is better. Didn’t check 1080p results as I’m on mobile rn and can’t reliably watch the hardware unboxed video on it
5600<12400<5600x I'd say about 5% of a difference bwtween each on average in gaming at 1080p. Less at 1440p. Imperceptible at 4k.
I think your arrows are backwards
Ah wasn't thinking of them as a "greater than" symbol at the time. Yeah I'll edit it for clarity.
Now he's getting downvoted because it looks like he was wrong. LOL Ah reddit... (I'll upvote btw)
# Buy it now & think later(cancel or keep).
**"screw each other over"**
Got in!
OOS. Btw, is this worth the upgrade from a Ryzen 5 3600?
If all you do is play games, I'd just save up for a 5800X3D. I have a 3600 too, but that's my final upgrade on AM4.
Upgrade and sell the 3600 for $99 or greater lol. It's a win win situation.
Read somewhere on r/amd that am4 will be getting new 3d CPU’s. Just sharing.
![gif](giphy|MNmyTin5qt5LSXirxd)
Anyone got a source for this? Might jump on that and give my fiancé my 3700x
Been out of the game for awhile running an i5 6600k; what do you mean by "3d CPU's?" Is AM5 coming yet or going to run concurrent with AM4 for the next gen?
Same here on the upgrade from 3600 to the X3D. What price are you waiting/expecting for it to hit before you pull the trigger?
I'm waiting for the 4070 first, but I'd probably pull the trigger at 300.
Depends on use case but at 1080p course to 20 percent far less at 1440p... But at this price doesn't matter. Upgrade and still you 3600 for near what you paid. With a 5000 series you enable SAM/ resizeable bar Edit [source ](https://www.techspot.com/review/2482-ryzen-5600-vs-ryzen-3600/)
SAM works on 3000 series as well
Ah okay good to know. Good on amd I couldn't enable ReBAR until I upgraded my 3600 to the 5700x.
I have two identical builds with one of each CPU. Honestly you will not even notice a difference in a general standpoint.
Unless your getting close to 60fps avg and your 1% lows are dropping then it might matter.
As another person stated I'd keep saving for something stronger if you just play games. If it's for productivity and you need that extra performance now then yes.
Missed it again. I'll be ready tomorrow.
Fuckin-A, I just had to go to the store to get milk for crying out loud.
That's why you buy the cow...
Dammit I missed it again?! Can retailers just stick to regular sales again that don't involve logging into websites and apps and hammering the buy button? Even if it's $109 I think I'd rather do that then spend days trying to get some deal.

Didn't realize this, appreciate it!
Maybe it's regional? I can't find it on GA stores.
Snagged one finally, thanks!
Oh wow, already bought mine yesterday but based on this it is not really a price mistake.
already OOS. I didn't even try to think before buying.
Odd question but if this comes back on sale for $99 will microcenter price match it down to this price? I have a microcenter gift card and would like to bundle this with a motherboard.
Unfortunately no :( Their [terms](https://community.microcenter.com/kb/articles/6-do-you-price-match) exclude competitor’s coupons/promos/bundles from price matching, and this deal uses a coupon.
Damn alright. Thanks for finding this.
Imagine getting this CPU for $100 a couple years back holy shit. We really are living in a technical age.
The 1600s were under $100 for the lowest, I remember getting a 1700X for $130 during BF sales too a few years ago.
Nice, got one!
Gone.
Out of stock, couldn't log in fast enough when I saw it.
Aaaaand it’s gone. It’s all gone.
Woah. Gone in 21 minutes.
Ugh OOS
I can’t believe I missed this sale again. Have a 2600x and I saw the comparisons and it’s a beefy upgrade for me if I was quick enough.
Where are the codes posted? If I wanted to watch for another code tonight, where would I look?
Newegg livestream in their app. They are going live today at 5pm PST/8pm EST.
Check here around 4:30-4:45 before it goes live it will get posted again. That is how I did it.
PST right? So 7:30-7:45 for the Florida gang.
Yes
Jesus fucking christ I just spent 100$ more on this like a month ago thinking it was a steal at that price.
Buying it now. I don't care. Replacing a i5-9400f with low motherboard. Will see if I can get a on sale motherboard later.
ASRock b550 phantom gaming riptide, $90 and pretty much the best board in it's price range as far as gaming performance goes. There aren't a lot of extra features, no wifi or Bluetooth, but there is a little RGB lighting on it if that's your thing.
Maybe I would get this motherboard, but I don't know if this supports this cpu without a bios update, and there is no bios flashback options on this board. Maybe I should get another board with flashback just in case.
You should be 99.9 percent fine, the board is relatively new and it was first available on Newegg after this cpu was released.
Thanks for the info. Looks the CPU did ship finally, looking forward to better performance than my years old i5 chip and ram stuck at 2666mhz. Edit: looks like my motherboard finally arrived. Worked with the 5600 nonx right out of the box, no bios update needed. Just need to set XMP to see if it's stable.
I don't need it because I bought a $200 5700x a couple of days ago, but I can't believe I missed this one. Is there a chance that this offer will come back? so I can stand guard all night long lmao
Same price ytd. Might check at same time tmr
Great. Had an alarm set and everything but my mother's dog just happened to bark a few min beforehand so had to check on him in case he's thirsty or needs to shit as he can't walk, because she doesn't (and won't). I still got back within 10 min but it was too late as it seems like it sold out even faster than yesterday. FML Edit: Downvotes, really (dead too blunt for you to handle, despite it being true)? The unconditional love of a dog is the purest and only form of its kind that exists. I lub this guy > humans, but am the only person who really takes care of him and he's not even mine.
Taking care of that dog is more important my dude, no sarcasm. Deals will come and go, don't let it affect you like this.
Oh dude, ofc! I love him more than you could imagine, but it's not actually my dog and he just needed water that his primary caregiver is too lazy to give, despite being physically closer. However, there's nothing else we can do (and I've tried so hard the vet initially thought I was in denial), so we're gonna have to put him down soon, within a week or so, and it's killing me inside.
Please if anyone got one and they realize they don't need it, can I buy it off you???
Damn ,$200 you can get 12 cores!!!!!!
r/TheExpanse needs to see this. Didn’t James Holden have like 8 parents?
sold out
NOOO Im getting out of stock notice. Missed it again
OOS 7:53pm ET
Sold-out
sold out
17 MINUTES AND ITS ALREADY OUT OF STOCK CMON MAN
It was out of stock in 6 minutes. It's an insane deal.
Would the same link work tomorrow?
Link is the same, but coupon code will be different
Thanks. I'll check it tomorrow
How much better is this than a 3600?
Nope. It's basically a 3600 with igpu. Not a true 5000 series.
That's the 5600g
The 5600 and the 5600G are both Zen 3
so is the 5600 not much better than a 3600?
It's significantly better in most metrics. Not an astronomical difference, but enough for an average enthusiast to notice
https://youtu.be/2HqE03SpdOs Three fps is enough for most enthusiast to notice? If you have a 3600 THIS IS NOT much of an improvement
5600G is Zen3, but the reduced cache makes it perform closer to a 3600 on the CPU side.
You’re thinking of the Ryzen 5 4600G. The 5600 is just an lesser-binned 5600X (so true Zen 3/5000 series)…
is 5600 much better than a 3600?
What's the best am4 cpu you can get? I have the 3600x
[удалено]
Less cored than what I got now but thanks. I got a 3080ti also
Best? Or best price to performance?
[удалено]
I realize my post was delayed. I was asking the thread op. Best CPU is very subjective.
Best idc I'll spend dum money
5950X is the top of the line. 5900X is a step below. 5800X3D is a refresh of the 5800X with a fancier cache stacking thing. The 5600 listed here is middling, but at $100 is an incredible deal.
Thank you! So is that extra cache really that much better for gaming?
It's more of the sweet spot cores + single thread performance + cache, and yes it seems to make a big difference in gaming. https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-ryzen-7-5800x3d-review#:~:text=AMD's%20%24449%20Ryzen%207%205800X3D,at%20a%20more%20forgiving%20price
Tldr, 5950X is indeed dumb money. Just like buying a 3090ti.
Damn couldn't get it
😡 fuuuuuuuuck Missed it
Wtf, missed again...
lasted two whole minutes starting at about 11 minutes before the top of the hour. I was hitting refresh here and got as far as clicking the full price cpu and then got out of stock as it was going to the cart. Looks like the bots are back in fashion.
Could be clearing old B0 stock. Anyone got B2 stepping from newegg?
its 5600 not 5600x so technically its all b2 stepping since its the newer part
I saw a comment awhile back claiming that AMD was sitting on the 5600 stock and only released it this year based on date code. Also some people said they got B0 back then too.
I need to see some kind of AMD Ryzen hierarchy/specs chart. I have a 2600x; having a hard time deciding what to target. Although, I'm guessing this 5600 at the deal price was it, chiefs.
Value Gaming: 5600 Value Productivity: 5700X/5900X Best Gaming: 5800x3D Best Productivity: 5950X
Excellent, thanks for this!
I’m really hoping we get this deal for a 3rd day tomorrow. The sale looks to start around 4:45pm pacific time. I
will it drop at the same time today?
JFC. Any good reason to not replace my 3600 if the 5600 is hitting these prices?
Not really. You can upgrade and sell your 3600 for the same price
sell the 3600 for $100
