They have a 5070 TI for under $900 also.

These shippped and got a decent cb from C1 too, now to decide what to do with them. Any one wants a brand new 5070 for $560 ish ? May just keep the 5060 ti and use it for the 270k build, decide what to do with it later (can use in my living room or flip down the line if prices stay insane, figured the AI crowd wants the 16gb card more).
 
Honestly tempted to sell my 5090 and keep the 5070 instead for my primary PC but emotions and experience dictate otherwise, the MSI 4090 I sold 2 years ago is worth more now, to say nothing of the 3x 5090s I sold last year basically at cost....
 
After having gotten to test RX 9070's, 9070XT's, RTX 4080, 5070, and 5070 Ti's, I think those are all great graphics cards for 2K and 4K gaming. Anything faster (NVIDIA side) would mostly be for video editing and/or AI.

Yea may just have to build a system with either the 5070 or the 5060 ti 16 gb and the 270k+ bundle and keep it/hook it up to my 77 S90F in the living room, with prices being what they are returning seems foolish.

I think now's a good time to build a DDR5 system if you have any DDR5 RAM (even if in single channel, or using DDR5 SO-DIMM's with adapters), since the prices for DDR5 motherboards have dropped quite a bit (although they're back up again). 270K Plus's have no signs of degradation or explosions, and might be the fastest all-around consumer CPU, and definitely the best value/performance.

Yea only thing is with my fully loaded 9800X3D+5090 rig and the Legion 7i, the use case for another machine is very very slim. Still, the 270k bundle is up to 700 now at MC, returning just isn't making sense.
