[H] Stock Alerts, Tips & Tears for Nvidia, AMD, Intel, PS5, XBOX

Miners are buying them, because full ROI is still less than a year at current mining profit values — even at scalped prices, (3090 still make $10-$12 a day), however there may be a surprise coming. There is the potential for serious mining profit changes coming in July with the ETH EIP1559 change that was greenlit 3 days ago. I'm not sure anybody really knows how much this will affect mining profits, but it should make mining profits go down (that is the point of this change - to make gas fees less for ETH users)

I noticed almost 2 weeks ago they expected payout went down already like by half.
 
Junk newegg shuffle today too, IMHO. Where did all the 3080s go? It's been a while for newegg.
 
So checking every box in the shuffle doesnt make your chances less?
I just want any card at this point...thats not sold on ebay.

I clicked on everythng including the combos .
I just want to see if I can ever get picked or not.
 
Oh yeah. There were some crazy blips for a few days, but this is more in the consistent range.
I was going to keep the 6800 based on those blips thinking that was the norm. I could have paid off that card in 4 months. But it dropped to $4 and I sold it lol.
Not sure anyone here would have wanted it, and I cant the the buy/sell here yet anyway.
 
$50 more ($1850 MSRP) so it’s significantly cheaper than buying a regular 3090 FTW3 and a separate waterblock (usually $150-225 for a waterblock and backplate)
Ive seen the numbers on some water-cooled GPUs and they can run significantly cooler!
What CPU is this getting paired with?
 
A Ryzen 5950X. Went all out with this build!
A lot of ppl will say why get a 5950X, but if you are spending $1500+ on a build, what $300 more on the best cpu? I got the 5900X because thats already really pushing my budget, but 5950 is what I wanted.
Its 3:30 emails should start coming from newegg. Hopefully they will let me buy a GPU for my B-Day . Then I can finish my pc

I mean...I spent an additional $1000 for 10-15% more performance with a 3090 over the 3080. So $300 for a 5950X over the 5900X doesn’t hurt as bad. :ROFLMAO:
 
The Chinese new year just ended and GDDR6X supply. so April -May some should pop up here and there for a few minutes at least.
I guess it's good then that all I'm playing at the moment is Dragon Age Origins. ;-)

At the rate I play, that will take a few months to finish again.
 
I think people have figured out the evga bstock drop times. I refreshed the page and when i clicked submit order it went out of stock on a 2060 super

B-Stock C-stock...Ill take anything at this point.
I dont know the drop time though.
Without bots likely wont make a difference

Yep, B stock is being botted too...had the same thing happen to me. Comically a 2080 ti for $1349 also went OOS, congrats to the dumbass that bought it for flipping, enjoy your negative return!

MSRP on 2080ti was $999 in 2018 from my internet search. Should be lower now I would think.

The FTW3s were selling for 1299-1499 most of the time and went down to 600-700 around Ampere launch, ebay prices now are around 1200 on last check, think someone just wrote a script to clear all b stock without even checking if they could make money from the darn cards...

2080ti is a good card, I would be happy with that. But they are not $1000+ good
Guy offered me an EVGA 2080 super hybrid for $900. I told him over $600 is a no from me being used too lol.
 
Yeah one of the stock checkers that I was watching today the owner said he's going to remove the 5800x from the check just because there's no shortage on them. Is the 5800x just at a weird price point that "if you're going to spend that much, might as well go right to the edge with the 5900/5950x" ?
Yeah I dumped my 5800X in lieu of the 5900X when another member here won the Newegg lotto and let me get it.
5600x $299 6 core-----$50/core
5800X $449 8 core----$56.25/core
5900X $549 12 core--$45.83/core
Doesnt make sense.

Yes, its cores-per-dollar ratio is out of whack. 50% more cost for 33% more cores over the 5600X is where it lost people; at $449 many people just decided might as well spend another $100 and get 12 cores even if it means waiting it out.

This while Intel 8 Core parts have been plentiful and in the $300-$400 range all the while. $399 is the most 5800X should've been, and would have kept that last $50 from being on the wrong side of a particular threshold.

It will magically hit $399 unofficially over the summer once 5900x goes real GA. Don't hate AMD for scalpin' a lil themselves lol, they have been through a lot.

That or the 5800x will be the new OEM darling and every pre-built will have one.
 
I think that $449 MSRP for the 5800X would have made more sense if there was a 65W 8-core 5700X part at $400. Like an extra $50 for better binning or something.
