Newegg has the Gigabyte Radeon RX 6900 XT Gaming OC GPU back on deal for $779 with a $50 mail-in rebate (prepaid card). Effectively $729 + Tax (yea yea I await the comments saying that MIR doesn't equal cash...)

Shipping is free

I'm not sure why this is a cheaper card, it's lightly overclocked so it's speeds are on par with more expensive versions. I specifically purchased this one because (apparently) it's only 286mm long which is much shorter than the 330mm 6800XT cards I was looking at.

The thought of being able to max-out the graphics settings in 4K and get stable 60FPS for Microsoft Flight Simulator is making me salivate.
Actual original cost is $1049.99 for those that care. This seems to be an actual good deal for these...not in the market for one, but I'd buy it if I was!

It's been on sale for this price for over 12 hours and it's still not sold out.

What's the buy price on a 6900 now $600-$650?

I don't think it's relative to the deal. No matter what the price it's a ton of money. So I really has to think about it. Been waiting for a few weeks now and didn't jump on the last deal for this card around this price so finally I decided it was time.

High end desktops are not a volume business. It's also possible they people aren't even looking for the 6900XT assuming it's more than the 6800XT.

That site does make false claims all the time to influence the stock market, but this current price does kind of line up with that $1,049 msrp down to $730 is about 31% discount. It wouldn't surprise me if this continued dropping but my thing is eventually they'll stop making them. Not going to make cards and take a loss, they'll reduce supply and move on to the next gen. Unfortunately its ill advised to buy any used GPUs these days since minign cards are totally destroyed and then put on eBay and Amazon.

This one fit the bill of being only 286mm long which I didn't realize was a limit I needed until this morning lol the case I'm using has a max limit of 300mm-ish, if I have the clu radiator set up in side format

Total misconception. Mining cards have been abused, but definitely not destroyed. Most serious miners actually take better care of their cards than most gamers who let them suffer in hot closed cases with little to no dust maintenance.

If you're nervous about a card, clean up the fans (you should do this anyway) and replace the thermal pads/paste. If the card is working when it arrives, it's most likely going to continue to work. Performance will be the same as a new card. Silicone doesn't just degrade and neither do its electrical connection points. There's no moving parts on the PCB/chips themselves so there's nothing to wear out. As long as connections are intact, it will continue to function as expected. The only things that wear out are the fans themselves (easy repair) or the effectiveness of the thermal pads/paste (also an easy replacement). For instance, I have an AMD RX 480 that I bought used for $80 after the 2018 mining crash... It has been in my wife's hackintosh for 4 years now and still is working perfectly fine.

However, if you want to spend 2-3x what MSRP should be, by all means, but I thought this was SlickDeals?

Unfortunately (or fortunately for us!) manufacturing doesn't work that way. Chip manufacturers are contracted out to make chips ahead of time. GPUs aren't just made in just a few days or even weeks. The whole assembly and process is months in time. Chips are contracted out to a company like Samsung or TSMC, then the chips are cut out of the wafer and tested, then moves to the next process. The cards arriving at vendors are from chips that started their life in manufacturing as long as 3 or more months prior. Cancelling chips from being manufactured doesn't let the manufacturer (in this case, TSMC or Samsung) lose money because Nvidia and AMD has already paid for the number to be made. So it's either lose money paying for chips not made anyway, or lose partial at retail.

Great deal, but stay away ...far away from Gigabyte. They are terrible products with even more terrible customer support. I have several products from them, 3080, mobos, other gpus. They cheap on everything..expecially thermal pads.

Lead times were pushing 6 months as of the end of this past year [bloomberg.com]. Even if we've recently seen a drop-off in order volume with world financial conditions, I doubt TSMC is just going to let businesses off the hook for orders they have on contract. We're probably watching cards hitting shelves today that were ordered last year, back when demand was much higher.
