Missed the original sales on Amazon/BHP, but was able to get BB to price match with WD.com, so still worked out in the end. I should probably update my signature one of these days lol.

I thought it was strange that the BQ adapter was just sitting in california for a full week. Newegg finally updated my shipping to show a one week delay. As a backup, someone recommended the adapter form the 3090Ti and I originally had that ordered from Amazon. But they too pushed back shipping...

The 5600G actually hit $199 on Friday, so the price cut is already there. Honestly don't know why they left 5600X's price unchanged, but Microcenter will be Microcenter lol.

Unlike the 11th gen, the price of power consumption is actually acceptable for the performance increase in the 12th gen. Or as Dr Strange says, I've come to bargain lol.

Thanks for the heads up on the game length. I had no idea the game was so short - 7.5 / 9.5 / 11.5 hrs for main story, +extra, completionist. I guess I can wait on this, I already have quite the backlog anyway.

The only reason I even know about the top streamers is b/c of the chess tournaments. If not for that, I'd just stick to D2 (MrLlama and 3Moth).

PM sent.

The bundles were better and cheaper about 3 weeks ago; literally everything went up $100-$150 and got much worse. The 3080Ti bundle was $1660 and $1730 - the $1730 getting a 750W G3 PSU. There was a 3060 bundle for $589 and the non-LHR 3070 bundles were around $880 and $900. Yes, still more than...

I have a set of CMK16GX4M2B3000C15W (Corsair 2 x 8GB, 3000c15 kit) - BNIB. I can follow-up with pictures/price later today.

TheSlySyl I feel like I might've asked before, but how did you mount that 120mm slim fan underneath your GPU?

Been in Microcenter's GPU 'reservation' list for nearly two months. Curious if this thing is actually moving lmao. We barely see eVGA cards now - but I refuse to pay the insane Gigabyte/MSI/Asus markup, so could be waiting easily into 2022 if it's some garbage MSI Ventus that comes in. Hope it...

Lol don't know how much that will help. I was basically an hour late on getting into the queue, so I'm probably in the thousands in the queue (i.e. won't get one for over a year). Probably still faster to just roll the dice at Microcenter drops at this point. The best available info was that...

Better be reading those reviews while standing in line at Microcenter lmao.

Hey - a win is a win. I'm expecting another "L" email for the shuffle tonight lol. Not sure what to think about that ShopBLT queue for the LHR cards. I got in super late, but now they removed the links and pages for it lmao. Got the confirmation email, but obviously nothing charged.

Interesting - skipping *all* FE probably saves me a lot of heartache. If only I knew to do this sooner lmao.
