Seems like as of late, retailers are always out of RX480 cards. I've been waiting since launch to be able to nab a third-party Sapphire or ASUS, but they're in the same boat as well, "out of stock".

I've finally gotten to a point where I didn't care anymore whether it was an RX480 or GTX 1060. After checking the egg maybe 3 times daily for the past 7 days, I finally found an MSI GTX 1060 Gaming X in stock so I said why the heck not? I'll be a first-time Nvidia card owner and I personally can't wait.

2 seconds after I completed the purchase, it's now out of stock again. Huh? Are retailers keeping stocks of 1 of each of these new cards and then when they are sold out, they stock up by buying another? Makes no sense at all.

You did better with the GTX 1060 6GB. At least for now. If you game at 1080p/60Hz.

The full GPU's (no deactivated shaders) are constantly out of stock, because of production shortages with the new nodes (16/14nm). 1070 / "1060 with 3 GB" / RX 470 for example are easily available
