Newegg has the Ryzen 7 2700X on pre-order for $330 and Ryzen 5 2600X pre-order for $230. Release was said to be April 19.

Based on how my three Ryzen CPUs OC and based on reading unofficial data regarding overclocking the R7 2700X and R5 2600 series, I imagine many of the individual CPUs will OC to boost frequency all the cores all the time fairly easily (however, a given CPU may not). That's my speculation -- we'll see what the official post release reports say.
