Anyone visit a Best Buy today? Assume the BR store was verified as the only one receiving GPUs, curious as to how many they had.

I checked at our local one in Mishawaka and they were not taking part in the restock event.

Stores got an average of 130ish

Ah. According to that google sheets document you linked a couple pages ago looks like BR had 80 total and 250 people in line this morning. Ugh I just wish this would end man.

I work in the electronics industry, and I can guarantee you this shite is gonna be like this for another year, at minimum.
Trust me its a shite show. Supply chain is all fricked.

Yeah, no doubt. Hoping EIP-3554 difficulty bomb in December provides some relief or at least puts some used GPU's onto the secondary market. I know another mining opportunity will be waiting in it's place, but any little amount can disengage scalpers and cause them to move on. I believe we saw a ~30% price drop on the secondary market from the moves China made over the summer. Just one more push may be enough to make it not worthwhile for people trying to make a quick buck.

So am i better off trying to buy something premade than finding a card?

depends on what you want.
do you need a new PC?
or just a new GPU?

Both? My PC has been giving me trouble, but this has got to be the end now. No way it survives another week or two in the heat and humidity it’s been in.
Posted on 9/7/21 at 2:22 pm to RATeamWannabe
Might as well mine on it to make it some money on it before it dies 
Posted on 9/7/21 at 2:23 pm to RATeamWannabe
yeah, i'd buy a prebuilt then. it's your only guarantee that you'll get a new GPU relatively soon. especially if you don't want to sit on twitter all day waiting for drop notifications.
Comes with BF2042
