“So I got this card and maybe I should be happy due to the scarcity of them. But is there a reason this GPU is $450 here? It's $430 on Newegg, the Gigabyte Gaming OC is clearly a higher end model with higher boost clocks and a triple fan design but$10less.”

I'd suggest MSI is a superior brand. In almost every generation of cards for 20 years they have had the most innovative cooling and stability, Many models offer very good overclocking capabilities. If you read reviews of individual products you'll see Gigabyte and other brands have many more one star reviews and for scarier reasons. MSI are solid and stable and built like tanks. The specs may be better out of box on other brands, but this will still be in operation in 5 or 10 years. I'd suggest you got a great deal, they're selling 2060's for 3x this price at newegg these days. Bang for the buck this is the only series worth considering but are impossible to find. I really feel you lucked out finding this at this price with this brand.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Be happy you got it at the cheaper price like I did as they raised it another $20 here. We definitely overpaid, but at least it wasn't to a scalper and free shipping and Best Buy bonuses cancelled it out for me.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Supply and demand i guess. i was able to flash it with the msi gaming 3x firmware and got big gains. Checkout reddit for the steps.
