Newegg.

I'd rather pay $5 more currently on Amazon for their return policy (Jan. 31st 2023)

Newegg is replacement only.

It's been $150 over at MicroCenter for awhile. Also see Amazon in the $150 range.

I hope that happens! Def a good value even at $150.... But I can see it dropping to $130 in a couple weeks ... Now if only I can find a decent b500 board for $100

Using this with a 3070 and handles everything i throw at it with ease. A steal for a very good 1440p gaming setup.

I use it with a 3080. I had stuttering issues on mw2019 while using a ryzen 3600 and 3080. Upgraded to the 5600 (non x) haven't had any issues with stuttering.

I'm waiting for this as well! I wouldn't mind a 5600 (non-x) sub 100 either Smilie I'll be coming from a 2600x that's holding back my RX 6600 XT.

This is great for those that live near a Microcenter. However, for folks like myself, we usually can't take advantage of those deals. ☹

It says exactly that and it's well known Newegg is replacement only. Same with GPUs

Thanks for posting this OP Smilie .. as far as the return policy I've had success in the past returning computer parts with both amazon and newegg but I've found newegg makes you jump through a bunch more hoops as opposed to amazon's just click on the appropriate options on their website and you get a prepaid label for free shipping back to them and a full refund .. mind you my newegg return experience was years ago so I don't know if it's become easier in order to say compete with amazon since then.

I should mention too I'm referring to the sold and shipped by amazon route or at least shipped by amazon with the "free returns" bit noted ... for anyone interested in the free Uncharted game that comes with this see

https://www.amd.com/en/gaming/ryz...ted-bundle

when you click on the "find retailers" button both newegg and amazon come up as qualified sellers for this

I do remember seeing a " Hey you get a free Uncharted game" when I ordered this directly from amazon on their website right after placing the order... contacted AMD (if you go to the link above there's a live chat button) and didn't have to wait on hold at all, was immediately connected with a friendly guy who told me that he estimates a steam key with a coupon code for the free game should be emailed to me by amazon maybe a week after the purchase.. waaaaaay back in the year 2018 I found it took more like 3 weeks (I think , memory is hazy it was a while back Stick Out Tongue ) for my free resident evil 2 (remastered/remake) game that I got with the computer hardware I had purchased at the time (not AMD mind you I think it was a video card?).
