    5090 in stock and it looks like it is staying in stock

    Houston MC currently has 7 different 5090 models now showing at "25+ in stock". What gives? This should be a clear sign to retail and distributors that no one is interested in their inflated price gouging. Heck SRP is too high to begin with.

    5090 in stock and it looks like it is staying in stock

    Houston MC sitting on plenty of inventory, which isn't selling, yet they refuse to budge on their pricing.

    5090 in stock and it looks like it is staying in stock

    Houston MC is receiving new stock on a daily basis and inventory is increasing. First time I've seen the Asus Astral show up. These prices are simply not sustainable now that early adopter demand has fallen off.

    5090 in stock and it looks like it is staying in stock

    Houston MC sitting on plenty atm. I think most people are fed up with these prices. They're absolutely loaded with 5080, 5070ti, 5070, 7900XTX, 9070XT, etc compared to just 2-3 weeks ago.

    5090 in stock and it looks like it is staying in stock

    I believe we will see a decent reduction in GPU pricing soon across the board. The supply right now at the Houston Microcenter is the most I've seen in many months. Other than the 5090s everything else is selling very slowly at current pricing. Even select 5090s aren't really moving like the...

    I feel both sorrow and envy for these people. Getting to experience it for the first time again. An experience like no other.

    Time to finally upgrade from my old 970. Where to go?

    Thank you very much for all of your input! Helps out immensely and gives me a solid direction in which to go with used vs new. I'm in Houston and Microcenter is close by. They seem to add new stock once or twice a day. I'll check out nowinstock as well. Wasn't aware of that.

    Time to finally upgrade from my old 970. Where to go?

    Really appreciate this bit of info. Didn't realize that with my limited research. May have to consider something a bit newer then.

    Time to finally upgrade from my old 970. Where to go?

    I'm finally starting to get back in to some light gaming after a decent hiatus and my 970 is obviously long in the tooth and not keeping up. Even on the lowest of the low settings in COD Warzone I'm only able to pull maybe 60-75 frames if I'm lucky. I built a system a few years back but didn't...

    Need help with finding "in stock" online x570 board

    There's like 15+ at the Houston Microcenter. Not sure where you live. You should try and find local stock. Finding these boards online is a crap shoot. B550 boards will be available next Tuesday the 16th.

    B550 Vision - a really clean board

    Not to be pedantic but I haven't seen the X570 Master for any less than $360. So $80 difference from the B550 and the specs on the B550 appear to indicate it's the superior board. 16 phase VRM from the Aorus Extreme vs 14 phase plus it has WiFi 6 and a 256Mbit BIOS as opposed to 128Mbit. No...

    Really New Egg?

    bal3wolf isn't lying. The X570 worldwide shortage is no joke right now. I was using www.nowinstock.net/computers/motherboards/ all last week while at work hitting F5 about every 15 minutes. I had been trying to get an Aorus Master for weeks and no one had any in stock. I also had the Newegg...

    Gigabyte Aorus X570 Master, bad luck or bad run?

    What issues specifically does the CH8 have? I'm working on my first build in nearly 12 years. Computer went to sleep over the weekend and never woke up. Looking mainly at the Aorus Master, CH8 and Asrock Creator. Is there a consensus on 2-3 X570 boards that are considered head and shoulders...

    Leaked AMD Ryzen Benchmarks?

    It's a no brainer to wait at this point. Ryzen is going to put the hurt on Intel.

    Who's planning to buy Zen?

    Waiting for Raven Ridge. My X5670 is holding me over until then.
