My plan was a stronger card but nV did nasty with the pricing of 4000, then we got SUPER cards coming. That tiny 4060 is temp till I see how things go in the future, it will serve me well for now.


Have you seen 4090 prices now? Imagine that in the 4000 series the card that's providing best PpP ratio is MSRP for 1599USD with no taxes yet... not to mention 4080 pricing, capped 4070 series with memory bandwidth, I got 4060 for now and trying to be optimist about nV next move.
Find a 7900xtx for $900usd

That is what I am saying buddy, it was from Amazon and fulfilled by Amazon Lol. It was absolutely insane. I even made sure with their customer support. The shipping labels even stated 42lbs but it came in the gray Amazon small plastic shipping bag. I can’t trust them anymore. The email they finally responded said they would refund me “as a one time courtesy” for the trouble. I’m like whhhaaaaaaaat a one time courtesy how can you even say that?! How was this MY fault!!? I sent them pictures of the shipping bag, label, shoes, my name, date, all that and it still took all of September and October of spamming their jeff@amazon email explaining the situation. The customer service chat and phone people would just hangup or end chat saying there was nothing they could do. The worst part was my return showing received on UPS’s end but on the Amazon app it still showed “on the way back” for over a month. Anyway, I still use Amazon but for small stuff.

I had a situation with Amazon, too. Let's just say I learned my lesson and I will not be buying my new motherboard ( or any other high-priced electronics) from them.

@HuLkY I have the Acer Predator VESTA II 6800 MT/s kit in a upcoming review. So far I like them and the DDR4 version rocked too. The 6000 MT/s you have for AMD is perfect. Hopefully you got a good deal on them too.

Such a pleasure seeing your comment! I will wait for your review eagerly!! It cost me 110USD and my friend bought it for me from China. I went to 6000 MTs since AMD recommended this frequency.. I hope I am not mistaken xD

Just had a stinky situation with Amazon US and I already super miss Bookdepository.com the most :(

$110 is pretty good for the bin your have and perfect for AMD without all the hassle. Just in time for the market prices to shoot up. 30% increase incoming.... supposedly.
