IKR, I showed him a Sapphire Tri-X R9 290 for $300 on Newegg and a Gigabyte Windforce for $300 on Amazon, but he refused to buy online. So he went and got the Asus R9 290 at Fry's for $340. I should've convinced him to buy online, oh well :P

Fuuuuuuuuuuu,FRYS IS A RIP OFF

Fry's is really lacking in the GPU department. At least the one located in Austin, TX. Other than that, they're not bad.

Oh boy, I hate that feeling. I remember when I bought my FX-8320, it was $140 one day on Amazon, and the day I went to order, it was $160.
