Think about number of ROPs and thermal paste leak issues before jumping for one of them.
Think about people stealing the ram chips and returning them...
Open box, and yeah, I downloaded the hotstock app and got one from Amazon yest at msrp.
It's in stock for seconds. My one concern is that I purchased it, it said shipped and sold by Amazon, now my invoice says Shipped by Amazon, Supplied by: Other.
I've never, ever, ever seen that on any of my purchase orders from Amazon. Amazon CS said I will still have buyer's protection and can return if there are issues, but it certainly makes me feel uneasy. Amazon CS said the Supplier is Asus, so I shall see or Amazon will lose a 20yr customer.

At least best buy returns in person are easy.
I've had two separate occasions where Best Buy at first denied my returns and it wasn't until I made a big production that I finally got them to "make an exception." The first time I purchased some new RAM and when I went to open it I found out someone had switched it with a much less amount and completely different cheap brand. The second time I purchased a new projector and got home and opened the box it was all busted up. I highly recommend you physically inspect anything you purchase from Best Buy before leaving the store. Especially if it's something expensive like this. I think half the time they don't inspect customer returns.

I only make returns in store and instant confirmation of refund.

Supplier is most likely ASUS, I'm sure Amazon does keep these at their warehouse.
this card has been game changing for me. When I lose a game of minesweeper, I look over at my 5090 and say "I can do better than this". It coil whines back and I have the courage to start a new game and click on a new potential mine.
