Best Buy recently clearanced some of their PNY 5070 Ti and 5060 Ti 16Gb graphics cards. For no real good reason.

Best Buy does have some other models. But yeah... it's pushing $600 for the 5060 Ti 16 GB. You might be able to get a 5070 or an 9070 for around that.

You can easily spot the complete idiots when they immediately go to "uuuh look at his hair" instead of in any way or form refute the data presented..... Which is pretty catastrophic across all the venues they visited.

Yeah, honestly, what in the hell is going on with these YouTube videos at that length?

As a rule, if someone thinks them talking in front of a camera should take more time than a Scorcese flick, then they simply have no idea how to communicate succinctly, or they like hearing themselves talk. Either way, pretty insufferable.

They wouldn't be spending the money to fly all over the world and do the interviews that make up these longer pieces if people weren't watching. They wouldn't keep making them if they weren't beneficial for the bottom line.

There's a certain irony that "winning the ai race" is viewed as critical to national security…but in chasing it the way they are they are ceding the consumer market to the Chinese, in a few years most western pc gamer homes will be running on Chinese ram and gpu's…which is arguably also a national security problem

Yeah, it was weird and seemingly a nationwide thing for what I saw on reddit and Slickdeals.

I follow a couple different discords for tracking GPU prices, and every once in awhile I'll see a sub $1000 rtx 5070 ti, but it's always the most basic model from Asus, Gigabyte, PNY, etc.

Seemingly "cheapest" way to get a 5070 Ti, RAM, SSD is to buy prebuilt. Sickening.

Most stuff I buy is produced in China, and Chinese EV's are doing great.
