I thought it was fishy that you were able to get a 5899x a 5900x and 3090. When you have to be really lucky to just get one of them. But with the picture you posted I can believe it a little more. Just curious what you need all that power for if your playing casual league.
Unless you’re using it for other purposes. But still. Seems like a lot of usually money wasted in a week
i don't upgrade often but i wanted to make this one big - i plan on playing cyberpunk2077 a lot when it's out (same with diablo 4), overkill as it may be it's just my hobby that i enjoy
i've been on discord on stock servers and the drops become predictable after a few weeks as to when certain site's restocks come back online
i accurately predicted the last 5900x/5950x drop, and chances are it'll happen at the same time again.
as for 5800x acquisition, there was a *gigantic* 5800x drop that happened one night where it wasn't out of stock for at least an hour on newegg, none of the other chips have had nearly as much stock coming through though
i just don't get why i'd lie on a dead forum about what i do and don't have lol
edit: as for the 3090, i got lucky lucky on that, someone posted a walmart link to it on the discord i frequent and i just went for it.
