A Ryzen 7 9800X3D and RTX 5080 gaming PC drops to $3,349.99 with $350 off
Newegg has cut $350 from an ABS Kaze II Ruby gaming PC with an RTX 5080 and AMD's Ryzen 7 9800X3D, bringing the prebuilt to $3,349.99. The saving is measured against the retailer's displayed $3,699.99 comparison price.
The configuration includes 32GB of DDR5 memory, a 2TB NVMe SSD and a 360mm liquid cooler for the processor. At the time of our check, the PC was sold and shipped by Newegg and the listing offered an add-to-cart option. Prices and availability can change.
This is still an expensive desktop, but the combination is aimed squarely at buyers who want a high-end graphics card and a gaming-focused processor without assembling the system themselves. It also comes with a relatively generous SSD for a game library, although Windows and other files will take some of that capacity.

What's inside the ABS Kaze II Ruby
The listing specifies an MSI GeForce RTX 5080 Ventus 3X OC with 16GB of graphics memory. That's separate from the 32GB of system memory, supplied as two 16GB DDR5-6000 modules. Newegg identifies the motherboard as an MSI Pro B850-VC Evo WiFi6E.
The Ryzen 7 9800X3D sits under a Bitspower 360mm all-in-one liquid cooler. The cooler is for the CPU; the graphics card has its own cooling. The PC also includes an 850W 80 Plus Gold power supply, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3 and Windows 11 Home.
For shoppers comparing configurations, this is item N82E16883362059 with a 2TB SSD. Similar Kaze II desktops can come with different components, so check the selection on the retailer page before ordering.

Is the discount worth it?
The RTX 5080 and 9800X3D are a powerful combination for buyers looking at demanding games and high-resolution displays, but the benefit depends on the games, settings and monitor being used. Independent benchmarks for the titles you play are a better guide to expected frame rates than the spec sheet alone.
The $350 reduction is against Newegg's displayed comparison price, not proof of a historical low. Check the current price, stock and configuration before checkout.
