Unfortunately, it’s currently hard to find in stock, and restocks will slow down considerably now that the new AMD cards are on the market. MSI has a great track record for reliable, straightforward graphics cards, and this one is in stock and recently discounted. At the sub-$500 price point, a $100 price difference can be massive, so keep an eye out for discounts to make sure you’re getting the best deal, especially as these generations begin to close out. If you’re considering buying a used card online, make sure you’re aware of the marketplace and payment processors' return and dispute policies. Once installed, a software tool called GPU-Z can verify the card’s hardware to make sure it matches the expected numbers for the model.
