They used to be great, but imo have gotten worse. (I'd even say low key shady).
Example:
I bought a VC on sale, VCs are returnable. Nowhere on the product page does it say NO RETURNS. My VC was faulty... requested exchange and was denied by newegg... their excuse was for this particular product, no returns (even though not stated anywhere).
I ate it and never bought from newegg again.

Anyone know of a cheap motherboard new or refurb to go with this cpu? or the 5700 gaming cpu mentioned? (I'm not a gamer but if it's only $20 different I might bump it up.

EDIT: You said 5800, but their website says it's a 5700G

They're the same TDP but you gain substantially more in productivity with the 5800x if you use it for that. The 5700x3d is hampered by its low frequency in a lot scenarios.
Any of these chips are only worth it if you're already on the AM4 platform with a Gen1 or 2 Ryzen and hoping to extend the life of your system.
In the last 5-10 years, their costumer service has tanked, RMAs have become an absolutely arduous trial. I've spent that much and have been treated like a criminal by their new CS teams because I have had DOA motherboards/videocards.
They have accused me of purposely damaging equipment and tried denying me a replacement or refund.
No idea if they have gotten better, I haven't had an interaction since 2019.
