I'm thinking about upgrading from a gtx970 to 1080ti. I have a MSI pro carbon board, does getting an MSI GPU offer any advantages? If not are all GPU makers (nvidia partners or whatever) basically the same?

I love that Newegg shows both "add to cart" and "temporarily out of stock" for MSI Ventus at the same time

The MSI Ventus is listed at $696 on newegg and B&H. Is it normal for AIB to match FE models for price? Wonder if they think perhaps the FE is actually a competitor this time around

Xaris posted:yeah this 100%. I just used Page Monitor https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/page-monitor/ogeebjpdeabhncjpfhgdibjajcajepgg plugin and have it set to a few sites like EVGA, NVidia, Best Buy, Newegg, Amazon order-link and I have a "Chime" notification enabled under advanced options so it beeps at me when there's a change. You'll get some false-positives because things like people adding it to wishlist or changing "suggested similar items" and such are page changes so you can configure it to use a certain CSS element to monitor (like OoS button, / Notify / etc). I have it on 5s interval and it took like 2 minutes to setup and tweak, and I don't have to sit there F5-ing all day. It's how I got my EVGA XC3 Gaming earlier because I heard the chime and rush-slammed open the page to start buying. I just wanna say thanks for this. I have been keeping like 7 tabs open and whenever I remember to go through and refresh all of them. This will let me relax a bit with the page refreshing. Cheers man!

Sagebrush posted:in my case i would not pay the scalped price, both out of financial sense and moral imperative, and i don't have the drive to sit around f5ing a page for more than like 15 minutes. so the calculus becomes "is it worth a couple hours of my time one night to set up a notification script that increases my chance of getting a card sometime before christmas?" and it comes out sure, why not. that's an acceptable time trade. as xaris notes, setting up some little macro to just ding when the page changes can be done with a chrome extension and a few minutes. I know exactly which one you mean, with the google glass. Does that make me old?!?

Man I spent like 45 minutes spamming the various cards on bestbuy without any luck. Is there a browser that's better for that sort of thing? I normally use chrome. Also was it literally just spamming "add to cart" or should I have been mixing in some F5's for flavor?

Just gonna put out there that if someone has an extra card I will gladly take it off your hands full price and pay for shipping. I don't have DM's but you can reach me at Dialmplays at Jeemail dot com. Please let this F5 hell be over EDIT: Just got an EVGA from the newegg drop.

So this is strange question, but in getting the EVGA from newegg, I also managed to snag a PNY GeForce RTX 3090 24GB XLR8 Gaming EPIC-X RGB Triple Fan Graphics Card. Is anyone interested in this card? Preferably someone in the South Seattle, WA area? I was just gonna cancel it, but I figured a goon might want it. I paid $1750 and would ask the same

I got the evga card from newegg.com in a similar manner. When the 3090's started dropping, I started refreshing 3080 page as well before the notification.

Could someone please post a link to the Tu madre discord again? I left after I got my 3080, now I have to come crawling back to try and get a 5900x.

Thanks for the link. Yeah wasn't sure of any other way to get notifications with any regularity. I tried using distillo myself but my one attempt on bestbuy resulting in constant dings so I figured I'll go back to discord
