Best Buy dropping right now!

 

Screw Best Buy. More like worst buy.

 

SO Close!
Went OOS as I was checking out.






Also today's shuffle sucks. So many damn bundles.
I already have a mobo, why would I get another

entering anyways because i need my daily rejection notice

 

Gosh some of the questions i didnt even know and were hard to google.

 

Maaaan I don’t want this shit.

 

Oh damn, you won! But yeah these combo/bundle deals suck.....still no win for me yet....haven't gotten an email yet so guess another no go.

 

Soooo anyone looking to buy a Gigabyte B550 motherboard?

I just entered in todays shuffle. would have much rather preferred today's Asus Tuf 3070

If i win, maybe I will return yesterdays combo.

 

Trying the shuffle again.,....yeah that tuf 3070 looks great. I think that's one of the better 3070 cards out there.

 

Or I could sell you yesterday's 3070 if I win today's shuffle.

 

.

 

once again.

 

Yeah had some yellow add to car buttons but kept saying please wait and says OOS.....some are saying bots are updated to handle BB's anti-bot logic so its not as easy to get now as before....F....at one point a 3070 and 3080 were showing as add to car for me but couldn't get past the initial screen at all...

 

its trickling more right now. I got an add to cart again for 3080 FE

 

ohh if you see a yellow add to cart button. When you click on it. Bestbuy puts you in a queue and tells you to "please wait".
When its your turn to try and buy, the "please wait" button will turn back to add to cart.
If it's still available then it will add to cart and let you check out.
(DO NOT refresh the page while waiting, that will put you back to the end of the line or just show you its OOS)

There is an additional purchasing step where bestbuy will send you verification code to your email or phone in which you will need to enter that in so you can finish your purchase.

not quite sure how bots can defeat that.

 

also getting the item in your cart still isn't a guarantee you it.

not that i was even going to actually buy the 3090 FE. Just wanted to see the process.

 

Well... pretty damn satisfied with the Gigabyte Eagle 3070 OC.

In COD warzone at 1440p, I’m getting around 135fps.
in COD Modern Warfare I get like 170fps.

haven’t tried any other games yet.
I did buy Doom Eternal since it’s on sale for 66.6% off.

Don’t think I’ll be actively looking for a GPU, unless I can get a founders edition 3080 or EVGA 3080.

 

Oh and I got scared for a minute with the card. Didn’t know it has a zero RPM mode, so when the hardware monitor kept saying it was at 0RPM, I thought I got a busted card. That is until I used MSI afterburner to turn on the fans.


also annoying is that it uses a 6pin + 8pin cable. Have to redo all my cable management.

also the 3070 is smaller than the 3060. It’s skinner too.

 

AMD right now!

6900xt 6800xt 6800 6700xt

 

and its gone.

 

LMAO. I actually beat the bot i was following for the AMD drop.

 

This is so sad, only the bad deals swipe right on Miz.

not going to bother with the 15 questions.

 

That US surcharge is brutal

 

my build is officially done!!

 

Duuude congrats man!! That looks like a BB drop?

 

Why are computer parts so expensive atm?

 

Yea its from Best Buy. They had a rare/unexpected Wednesday drop earlier today.
Probably why I was able to get it.

Funny enough I was on the freeway when I heard the drop notifications.

This was me:

Nice! I got the notification and was trying to order a 3070 for my friend who's been trying to get one for a month or two. Got the dreaded "not available for pickup" at the 5 stores I tried setting it to.

 

Got a new desk and that gave me the perfect excuse to build a new PC, I don't game so I just needed something basic but figured I'd get good components so I don't have to upgrade for a while. None of my mid or full towers would fit in the desk enclosure, so I ended up going with a micro ATX tower.



I loaded it up with some more fans



Getting everything organized



And decided to spring for the Ryzen 9 3900X



Everything all installed.



And here's my home office setup, just upgraded from 23" Acer monitors to 2 x 27" Asus LED monitors



And here's what the system consists of, this was a budget build, but I'm very happy with the way it turned out.

Thermaltake Versa H15 Micro ATX Mini Tower
ASUS TUF Gaming B550M-PLUS AMD AM4 (3rd Gen Ryzen Micro ATX Gaming Motherboard
AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-core, 24-thread unlocked desktop processor with Wraith Prism LED Cooler
32GB Corsair Vengeance LPX (4x8GB) DDR4 DRAM 3000MHz
ASUS ROG Strix 850W Gold PSU Power Supply
Gigabyte Geforce GTX 1050 Ti OC Low Profile 4GB GDDR5 128 Bit PCI-E Graphic Card
Dual Raided Western Digital 1TB WD Blue SN550 NVMe Internal SSD

 

Those 1050ti could be sold for like $400. Sell it and pick up a $60 GT710

 

lol I replaced a GT610 with this 1050ti

 

Nice build! Love that case with the old school optical drive bay still available. Love it.

I have this friday off work and gonna go line up at microcenter....another newegg shuffle lost today.....

 

Helping out a friend since I appear to be lucky on obtaining parts.
He said he's been trying to finish his build for 7 months
he just needs a graphics card now.

If only I was this lucky with lotto tickets

 

7 months?

 

yea. he has a job that doesn't let him be at the computer or on the phone 24/7. That makes it so much harder to get stuff when it drops.

 

Bruh wtf is with this shuffle??

a fruit dehydrator????

Rosewill is just throwing their brand name on everything now

 

Some talk floating around saying that Bestbuy is going to release the 3080tie instore only. as in you'll have to camp out at an actual store. Like Microcenter
