Not sure what your thought would be on a Seasonic FOCUS GX-750, 750W 80+ Gold but that's what I got when I upgraded mine to handle the upgraded graphics card that I have (which is a GeForce GTX 1660 super GDDR6).

Anything gold rated or higher should do just fine. Just try and stick with well known brands. There's a lot of cheap Chinese crap out there with fake 80 plus certification ratings.

I just know Seasonic is pretty good and I was familiar with Gold.

Since we can't find a GPU anywhere, do you think we should go this route instead?
I know it has a lot of cheaper components and it probably isn't very upgradeable, but it sure seems like a good price. Would the CPU be that much worse than the Ryzen 5600? |

But imo, FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK NO! Ya it's got some nice components in it here and there but the motherboard is more than likely some generic piece of shit and its unsing some kind of case+PSU combo that is 100% some cheap Chinese trash and its only 550W and I guarantee that the airflow on that case sucks dick. |

If you just can't wait, and you want a prebuilt that has quality components, NZXT is a solid option to consider. They even have 30xx series cards. https://www.letsbld.com/

It changes all the time. If you check it each day you’ll catch a 3070 or 3080 at some point. At least that’s how it’s been so far. They get resupplied by the different vendors.

Yeah hard pass on pre built from my opinion. I know it's hard to wait but it will be worth it in the long run. Also of you have microcenter anywhere around you go up there in the mornings and try to get lucky

NZXT is actually pretty good for prebuilt.
You just have to keep refreshing your cart to get the parts. They'll show out of stock for an hour and then in stock and then out of stock again. |

Not sure if it's real or not; went to Microcenter.com and they have the 5000 series of the AMD Ryzen listed as in stock. I'd like to upgrade from my old Phenom 2 system however you have to go to the store to buy it. I have the feeling that it's one of those ads where you show up to buy it and they say they just sold out however we have xyz in stock.
