EVGA 1660 Super and 3050 available B-stock at OK prices (some other stuff, too)

80-watt Hamster · May 18, 2023

This really shouldn't be noteworthy, but EVGA's doing their Wednesday cleaning of closets, and you can get a 1660S for USD130, or a 3050 for USD180. There are better deals available on used cards, but not much better, and EVGA B-stock hasn't burned me yet.

1660S was this price last week (along with a bunch of 2060s at 180), so it's possible these will show up next time 'round. Anyway, US buyers can snag these until midnight Pacific if so inclined.

3060 ti xc for $300. Thinking hard about that one

The two 3070s for $340 aren't bad deals either..... Some of the other pricing is all over the place.....

Oh yeah. B-stock sometimes has just mind-bogglingly bad deals. I think they were trying to sell 2060s for like $400 at one point.

Edit: they're doing that TODAY. It's a 2060S, but still. Stupid. But some of today's deals make up for that, I guess.

Gah the $120 1660S is gone, that would have been a decent backup card...

Bump, big selection again

Yeah, there is. Notable as of post:

1650S - $100
2060 - $170
3050 - $170

Pascal cards are in that ballpark, but are looking looking less favorable ATM; used prices for those seem to have really tanked if eBay's Sold listings are any indication.

Bump, flash sale going on now

With the recent slide in retail graphics pricing, these deals aren't quite as favorable as they were at time of OP. Best when I looked were 3050 and 2070S. Otherwise, in the sub-$300 space you're better off with a 6600 or 6650 XT. My calibration for value in the over-$300 space isn't great, so there might be some decent buys in that range.

Yeah, I agree, but every avenue should be checked out.

Again, thanks for posting. I check page almost every day.
