Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
A 280x for $200 is still bonkers high. Those should be $60, $80 tops. In Jan 2020 I built my son a rig with an $88 4GB RX580 off ebay. There were plenty around that price.
Based on ebay prices, you're looking at an OEM 1660 Super for $600. I'm sure H can do better (they did for me). If you want anything close to "normal" pricing you have to go back to ~2014 or older cards (280, 760, etc). Personally not a fan of proof-of-stake but it's necessary to get out of this...

P31 was on Amazon yesterday for $115. That's also the everyday price for the Mushkin Pilot E which is just a SX8200 Pro copy (the original fast version). I think I saw Newegg had the EX950 on sale today. Also this guy has a 2TB SX8200 Pro...
Last part for my daughter's build. Just need something to hold her over until the next crypto crash and I can get a 580 for $80 like I did last year. Overwatch is about the most intensive game she'll play (1080p). She's starting to outgrow integrated graphics, Minecraft Dungeons lagging like...
Got a Dell prebuilt coming, looking to get dual channel going. Don't care about timings or brand, as long as it works. Heatware under edge929. Can do non-CC Paypal. Thanks for looking.
Edit - Found, locking thread
Save yourself $20 + tax and buy from this guy. Great board, yes I'm biased (see sig). But seriously, one of the better bang-for-buck X570 boards based on components used and temps (google it).
