Microcenter, according to their website, had 5600x stock till like 7pm today. Which is when I got there.
Which is when they sold out.

Hoping to snag a 5600x in the next week or two to replace this old rear end 4770k :regd08:

is there a working discord for catching 5900x restocks? The nvidia one is terrible at catching zen3.

They're also just terrible in general, if we're in the same one. I haven't seen any restocks logged on the more popular websites since release day though.

the tumadre/atr stonks one. It worked great for getting my multiple 3080s, but its worthless for a 5900x

Ah, yeah same. That got me a 3080 within like 4 days of being there. Yet the only zen3 restock I've seen since release was a single 5800x posting at best buy :v:

No, just added once on amazon. Though I did notice some discords were pinging way earlier than others. Notably this one started dinging way before the ATR-Grift one (which only pinged for the 5600x)

The stockdrops one posted nothing about the amazon drop

Do you have a good wiki game strategy guide link for how to find this rare category drops?

I haven't started the wiki, but I think working nights and having my boss wake me up with a giant group text at 3pm was key. Also like 3 dumb discords with literally every channel but the relevant bot ones muted.

I thought it was funny that my 5900x ran prime95 of all loving things at a balmy 62°c.

Turns out this thing only wants to boost to 4.2ghz :laffo:







oh god now I get to diagnose dumb poo poo

e: well that was fast. The Bootleg asus XMP profile sets my memory to the proper 3600mhz but sends the cpu to 4.2ghz mode for whatever the gently caress reason.

e2: Yeah, I think we're good now
