13214, 14626 are 2 in NY. The issue with Best Buy's search thing is it only gives 250 mile radius. So larger states typing in only NY might say nothing found but if you grab rando zip codes all over the state you will find them in stock.

There's a "good" condition 47 miles from me, hmmm. I've had bad luck with Best Buy open box lately, though. I got an "excellent" condition that was absolutely filthy (including beard hairs), the bottom had been opened and reinstalled improperly, and it didn't boot into Windows properly. I wonder how bad "good" would actually be.

There is a couple of good condition near me. Might have just found a good 18th bday gift for my son, although he has one with a 4080.

One near me, but after reading reviews, someone else can have the headache.

With 24 GB of VRAM and 1100 nits peak brightness, it will perform well for most 4K games. The 24 GB VRAM is also sufficient for running smaller local LLMs. However, the 32 GB system RAM should be upgraded to 64 GB to handle the most demanding game titles.

And yet 2 years ago, people here were telling me 64GB of RAM was too much.

outside of maybe flight sim, what games require 64gb of system memory.

Is the RTX 5090 performance on par with the desktop card?

No, it is essentially a lower clocked 5080 with more memory
