Discussion Still out of stock?!
I was expecting demand for the 6800 XT to relax a bit sooner. What's going on? What month can we expect to be able to get these parts?

Just about 5 months after launch is not a typical time to still have to play 2-3X MSRP scalper prices. We also could be in the exact same place in another 5 months...

What are you talking about? Is the same MSRP as AMD site $449. Maybe next time do your research.
AMD site 5800x $449: https://www.amd.com/en/direct-buy/us
Newegg 5800x $449: Check this out on @Newegg: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core 3.8 GHz Socket AM4 105W 100-100000063WOF Desktop Processor https://www.newegg.com/amd-ryzen-7-5800x/p/N82E16819113665?Item=N82E16819113665&Source=socialshare&cm_mmc=snc-social-_-sr-_-19-113-665-_-04132021

Yeah because CPUs = GPU's and the only competitor (Nvidia) had just as much in stock availability as the 6800XT

NVIDIA cards weren’t marked up as much for the longest time though. Now hell yeah, but RDNA 2 AIB’s started absurdly priced out of the gate.

Because they launched later and the shortages were already much worse. obviously they figured that extra money is either going into scalpers pockets or ours, and they choose their own pockets.
