They were like HUGE, at least the ones went to.Never been to a Fry but from what I seen of them they seem like pretty big stores. The two microcenters by me are pretty small and tightly pack. I doubt they want to pay high ass rent for the big buildings.
I'd avoid newegg anyway if you can. They have gone downhill ever since the buyout.Damnit, now the motherboard I wanted to order, the ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming (WiFi 6), is out of stock at the 'egg. Hopefully, it will return to stock on pay day but I better start looking at a plan B.
What he said. And faster and faster downhill since the pandemic.I'd avoid newegg anyway if you can. They have gone downhill ever since the buyout.
I honestly believe most of us only buy anything from them is because the shuffle offers a (small) chance of getting a GPU.What he said. And faster and faster downhill since the pandemic.
I still read the product reviews on the egg. I trust them more than the ones on Amazon.I honestly believe most of us only buy anything from them is because the shuffle offers a (small) chance of getting a GPU.
Yeah I simply won't buy from 3rd party sellers on there. cyberreality is right their search is great but their customer support has really taken a dive from what others have reported.I still read the product reviews on the egg. I trust them more than the ones on Amazon.
One recent development I don't like is all the third-party sellers on Newegg. Some of them are OK, but some of them have terrible feedback ratings.
Ah. Well. /shrug
I scored a 6600 xt today on newegg from a discord alert for $610. The crazy part is now I'm thinking "why did you do that? You dont need a gpu." Just caught up in the excitement. May just return it....
So yeah, you can find stuff.
cancel it?
gotta get more posts before I'm allowed to on here...Just sell it here on the forum. Scalping is not allowed, but you can sell at cost or a little extra for your time.
yup, I later came to my senses and thus I made the return comment.A 6600XT for $610 is a horrible deal..

If you can find an evga card, you can get in the step up queue while you wait.
There have been some evga 1660 cards around $350 that aren't too hard to come by.
What card do you have now? And what res is your monitor? The 6600XT is a pretty decent card.
I have an RTX 3060 on my other machine. It's nice, I'm even able to run 4K with it (obviously with lower settings, but I can get 60fps).
The 6600XT should be slightly faster than a 3060, so you should be okay with it (outside ray tracing).
Sadly the AMD ray tracing is pretty bad right now. Definitely unusable on the mid-range cards. Even on the high-end, it leaves something to be desired.
Wait, you bought TWO scalped cards?I paid $700 for the RTX 3060 I got. Definitely a rip off (double MSRP) but, given the current circumstances, it's not the end of the world.
Didn't even try ray tracing on it, since I'm running at 4K and that is already so demanding I need to drop to mid/low settings on new games.
DLSS helps though, especially on Cyberpunk 2077 and other games that don't support FSR yet.
You do what you gotta do.Wait, you bought TWO scalped cards?
I don't know if Newegg has changed their policy but you can refuse delivery. That way NE will auto refund you and you don't have to deal with selling it. Check first though.yup, I later came to my senses and thus I made the return comment

For some reason so many people get the wrong impression of apu's and think that they are a good solution for a low end videocard. They aren't. They're just a solution for NO videocard, or the LOWEST END VIDEO CARD MONEY CAN BUY.Playing games at 1440 with an APU is quite a stretch. Even 1080 can be tough in some games with the 5700g, but, depends on what you play, you can get by till better prices and stock exist.
Pretty sure they have free returns.I don't know if Newegg has changed their policy but you can refuse delivery. That way NE will auto refund you and you don't have to deal with selling it. Check first though.

If you're buying an apu, you'll be targeting 720p gaming with reduced settings. Anything more than that and the frames start to tank fast. There will be exceptions where you can pull in more fps or resolutions on much less demanding games, but they are the exception, not the rule.
