Newegg lost all credibility with me years ago.
Do you or anyone else have suggestions on where to go to buy parts or premade PCs for Canada? I’ve been trying to upgrade for years but I honestly just don’t know where to buy from anymore.
My GTX 970 is still going strong, I can wait another three years until prices go down.
I’ve been telling myself that for years now
For Canada, unfortunately no. Unless Microcenter is available up there, that’s my go-to these days. You could maybe try them out online, I dunno if they’d ship to you.
I’ll check it out, thanks 👍
Microcenter has two locations in the entire western half of the country. There are tens of millions of people in the US who live more than 1,000 miles from the nearest Microcenter. Every time I’ve gone to their stupid website they’ve said they can’t ship any of the things I want. Microcenter isn’t a real thing.
it is a choice for some people… otherwise… amazon lol
Yeah, fuck neewegg. I’ll never forget their GPU bullshit from the pandemic.
“if someone’s going to scalp it might as well be us” seems to have been the GPU mantra since the 20x0 series.
I am done doing upgrades of my shit until it breaks.
This parasites got fat off our consumerism and taken the gamer market for granted.
I can adjust my consumption, fuck you.
Bunch of greedy ass geezers. I’ve been watching the MSI RTX 5090 Liquid Suprim SOC. Announced at 2,499. B&H initially had it at that price, then 2,789, then 2,799, then back to 2,789. US MSI store also went to 2,799. Haven’t seen a price yet on NewEgg.
Edit: Just noticed that I’d said “4090” instead of “5090”. This has been corrected. Apologies for the typo.
