“Want to verify that this card is legitimate. Best Buy is the only website listing this card with the serial #08G-P5-3751-KB, while the official EVGA website states the serial number is #08G-P5-3751-KR. Is this a typo on Best Buy's end?”

Well, I had the same exact question and I googled it: "From what I've seen in the past, the "KB" SKUs are the Best Buy specific models that are different in model name only to prevent price matching with other retailers".

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It is not a typo, first of all do you really think best buy is stocking fake cards? Second of all, it is common knowledge that best buy negotiates different model numbers so they don't have to price match competitors.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I highly doubt BestBuy would be shelving fake models. However I ordered this same exact model and it is completely legitimate.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.My guess is that the B and R is for the accent color of the card. This card also comes with a red accent on the backplate and the end of the card and from the pictures, it looks like the accent color for this card is black instead of red.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
