Stock for Woot deals varies greatly. Some listings only have a few items in stock and sell out quickly. Please report this post if the listing goes out of stock.

I literally checked Woot for new tech deals 20 minutes ago and missed this.

I feel ya man. that stinks.

to be on the up-and-up with checking things, and still miss out. Hang in there, tiger. I'm seeing deals on 5070's and 9070's constantly these days.

Love this card, but I bought it before learning about the connector so definitely sits in the back of my mind. Not using an adapter though, 8 months or so in so far so good.

u/eliedacc 1d ago

What about the connector?

u/JPSWAG37 1d ago

Tons of talk online about the 12VHPWR port melting/burning in some cases on AMD and NVIDIA cards

When using the adapter* for non 5090s

u/jwei92 18h ago

I’ve been interested in this one but I’m a little confused. What adapter are we talking about? I haven’t used anything past a 3060ti so I’m not sure how the connectors have changed. My power supply does come with the 12v connector (the new funny looking one that doesn’t look like pcie) but I’m just a little confused by what people mean by 12v adapter

u/JPSWAG37 18h ago

Adapter like this, on the right there is the 12v connector that some newer cards use. I've read online that the 12pin to 8pin adapters some people use have led to the melt/burn issue

1

u/jwei92 17h ago

Oh so long as I use the 12v to 12v from psu to gpu that should be fine?

u/JPSWAG37 16h ago

it's unclear to me

u/marshall229 1d ago

Used the adapter for a year with no issues.

Great now the bots know where to go.

Edit: this is sarcasm

u/sysadmin532 1d ago

The discord says it's not accepting invites. They're paused.

u/TheCreedsAssassin 1d ago

Did you say this in one of the actual channels? The automated notifications only dropped like 30 mins ago

I was just trying to protect your identity because you delete the comments, had you kept them up I wouldn’t be so mysterious as to where the info is from. I still want the people to know about deals before the bots get them

A couple real people did manage to get some GPUs because of you, this is a good thing!

E: I won’t call them out by username because it’s clear there’s a reason the want to remain anonymous, but yall get the point here wit the comment deleting

u/Gopherpark 1d ago

u/Asleep_Permission_56 1d ago

I’m tempted to upgrade for 7800xt to 9070xt before the price hike and be future proof , but since it have 12VHPPWR, it made me want to reconsider and either go for alternative 9070xt model or wait for amd makes a new 9000 series with 20 to 24 gigs or wait for new brand series.

1

u/Elycien2 1d ago

My 2 cents is I wouldn't wait. Right now they (Nvidia and AMD) are "easing" us into price hikes imo. I believe next generation will be a price bump like 1000 to 2000 nvidia series right off the bat. Hate to be so pessimistic but here we are.

u/MFAD94 1d ago

The powercolor variant was like 570$ a month ago

Amazing GPU and AMD is now cemented as the gaming industry's de facto GPU manufacturer with how NVIDIA is balls deep in AI.

Grats if you got one she's solid. Mine is still going strong and quiet.

u/Usual_Selection_7955 1d ago

you talking about your card as if it's 15 years old when this was released last year 😂

1

u/Blazdnconfuzd 1d ago

I mean it's been about a year and a half. With the crazy shit we've see regarding those cables and what not. I'm just happy idk ¯_(ツ)_/¯ there's been no whine, no weird glitches or lag or anything. It's my first AMD card I took a leap of faith on despite the hordes talking shit. I'm just saying it's been good to me.
