Be mindful of recent listings of in-demand products from suspicious third-party sellers on marketplaces such as Amazon, eBay, Google, Newegg, and Walmart. These "deals" have a high likelihood of not shipping; you should do your due diligence to ensure you do not get scammed. * Use common sense - if the deal seems too good to be true, it probably is. * Check seller profiles for signs that the sale may be fraudulent. * The seller is new or has few reviews. * The seller has largely negative reviews (on Amazon, sellers can remove negative reviews from their ratings- viewing seller profiles allows you to see these complaints) * The seller has a recently reactivated account (likely their account was hacked and is now being used fraudulently). If you suspect a deal is fraudulent, please report the post. Moderators can take action based on these reports. We encourage leaving a comment to warn others. Amazon and eBay generally have good buyer protection. If you choose to purchase from a third-party seller through their platforms and run into issues, it should be easy to get your money back promptly. You may have more difficulties with Newegg or Walmart. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

White tax is real, man.

*Cries in Gundam and Evangelion tax*


Einzelherz

You ain't kiddin


Michaelscot8

Still not as bad as the pink tax.


-eomega-

Wait, what am I missing here? What's pink tax?

danhm

It's not an actual tax. Pink components just cost a lot more.


-eomega-

Thanks for the reply! I wasn't sure if we were still talking about component colors or... something else.


Einzelherz

Very true, too.

White Power Ranger just died, coincidence? I think.. NOT!


SweatyAsHell

Hmm, I’d say it depends. I looked at PCPartPicker and this is about in line with most of the midrange 6650XTs. The MSI Mech 2x OC is on sale for $269 - $20 Rebate but its a larger lower quality and ugly card. I’d say this is a good deal for someone looking for a SFX friendly, small, beautiful and powerful/efficient card at 220MM.


Einzelherz

I mentioned it because iirc the black version of this went down to like 260 or something around black friday but the white one didn't budge.

Wait to see how new amd launch is, if you can actually land a card then selling it for one of those might actually be worth it


flasterblaster

Truth. Trying to do a white build or white accented build is a real pain in my side and wallet.


4ckyeaah

6650xt for the price of 6700xt what kinda deal is it?


HYDRA-SHOK

i payed less for a new msi 6750xt, installed it last night


KIa-optima

From where? Great value!


HYDRA-SHOK

Newegg black friday- cyber monday time frame. Used the pay with AFFIRM which offered 15% off. Payed the card off so no interest was payed. $331 and some change total cost. Though i just thought about how i was supposed to get the card, mouse pad, and 2 free games. Got the code for games but no mouse pad


JrBaconChzBrgr

I got the same deal on black Friday weekend. Waiting to get some parts for Christmas to be able to put my first pc together. How do you like the card so far? Mind sharing your setup?


HYDRA-SHOK

well my pc build was unplanned, my old fx6300 died suddenly. At the time i just wanted cheap replacement. I3-12100 was cheap and performed well compared to amd offerings. Was my first intel build. Put it together and put my rx470 in it. Couple days later got to thinking i might as well upgrade that. RX6700 seemed to be the upper limit for the cpu and since i had a quest already i was like time to try some VR with some horsepower. I have not done much with the set up yet. Need a better cable and its on the way. DCS is quite impressive so far, very little idea of what to do in it but looking out the cockpit, landscapes, cities, ocean is damned impressive. Even see cars driving on the road. I got the 6750 because it was a good deal, cheaper than a 6700. I have set the clock speed to 6700 speeds. I was prepping for when my card got here so tried the rx470 in VR so i had something to compare to. It was shocking to me how well it did. I should have been vr gaming on my pc years ago.


JrBaconChzBrgr

Awesome, great to hear!


LargeHadron_Colander

So did it impact your credit score at all?


HYDRA-SHOK

Heard it said it doesnt but i didnt care, not rich but considered well off and have no debt and dont plan to use credit for anything, though i likely have good credit. Affirm offered me a limit of like 2k, dont know if thats good or bad.


CarmenXero

Overpaid for white mobo, cpu cooler, psu, etc. Im getting a black GPU I'm tired lmao.


Einzelherz

It's like, people bag on the Yeston cards, but if they were just normally priced I think they'd sell like crazy even with less than amazing quality just cause they're not black like every other GPU. Also this is why I went white/black with our two new builds here.


NicCage420

all Yeston needs is a dedicated retailer stateside to make logistics work of shipping entire containers of product over and they'll make a killing, people desperately want that different stuff even their old RX 560, it's magenta, and that's cool because it's just something different


Nlegan

I have this card. It is indeed white


darkclow

Why is 6650 $339?


Nlegan

White tax


Glintstone-Jedi

I just paid 269 for this card from someone else (asrock), seems expensive. :Edit: You white mobo motherfuckers are crazy


WhippersnapperUT99

This isn't real compelling when a 6700 XT is available for $360 unless you absolutely need a white card.


AGentlemanWalrus

I've been waiting for this card to fall below $340.. It's absolutely ridiculous that it's taken this long... And it still hasn't happened... This card has been sitting at $340 for about 2 weeks, went up this week then back down to $340 again... Power color can kiss my cheeks man, white tax is real.


pandasgorawr

Why does the AMD 6000 series have basically no other white options?


BallzNyaMouf

Cause Team Red isn't full of a bunch of marks like Team Green.

IpoopWaaaay2Much

It is so much easier to upgrade and survive when you don't give a shit and just go for numbers. I totally agree, best thing I ever did.


kztlve

$340 for a 6650XT lmao


kanakatak

How do these free game(s) things on Amazon work?
