The 3060 ti has been available quite a lot at best buy the last few weeks, for hours and hours per drop. EVGA just seems to not include them in the sales, or nvidia isn't giving them more of those chips. They probably have way too many of the left over 2k series round 2 nvidia churned out...
I think even with mining interest basically dead, the scalpers have noticed and aren't about to look the other way. I suspect through the holiday season at least, it will be a scalpers only paradise. It's still a highly desirable item they can monopolize the stock of, it's not like nvidia will...
6600 is $250, 6600xt is 299+. 6700 xts are also in the $430 range from a quick search. It's a messy field right now, but don't forget the non xt products in between.
Yup, kind of explains why I said they were all the rage. I don't have a problem with that, and yes vanilla sucks, so we're in agreement. So it's in their best interest to just ban nfts etc, to cover themselves and generally make the community safer in that regard.
I suspect by now the overwhelming majority of people either got lucky, paid scalper or used prices for something, or gave up & picked up a console. Miners and scalpers aren't interested in these anymore.
I had the 3060 ti fe ready to checkout, but I had to close the window. Of course they are finally available when they have no more value for resellers or miners.
Ahh yes, back when my cousin couldn't figure out his finances lol. Still hard to find in general, so worthy of posting here when they are available for others.
Yup, I entered that on my account and my gf's account pretty early on, still no notification for me. I did manage to get my brother his ps5 in like February of 2021, but since then struck out trying to get one for my cousin. So it's still a desolate wasteland out there for ps5s.
They are only available through best buy, though I think a few have randomly shown up at micro center a few times. Nvidia stopped selling them on their site quite a while ago.
Here you can see the host totals of my 5950x and 5800x, after the 16th it nearly stops dead. Now today it's been moving some along now that the contest is over.
