    Msrp is manufacturers price. Micro center isn’t the manufacturer. It’s the same reason you don’t find Arizona iced tea for a dollar at the gas station

          And did you just stop listening after the first few minutes?

          Because his point is that between Nvidia and Asus they gave these cards to reviewers as a 750 dollar card when clearly they aren’t and reviewers are being misled into doing a cost to performance at that price vs what they’re actually selling them for. That portion of dishonesty is what he was complaining about.

              Because he actually gives a shit that Asus and Nvidia are trying to mislead gamers with price per performance on a price that doesn’t actually exist?
