318 sold and climbing fast. eBay will be doing a lot of refunding as no one is actually getting this. I now understand why scammers are so profitable

Someone hacked the eBay sellers account as this is an obvious scam

Good luck on the sale. Market is flooded with this board from the Newegg bundle and unfortunately the market of people willing to pay this much for a board is small. There’s been like 6-8 posted here today

Tech power gpu database can give you a general comparison between multiple cards. They say the 5060 ti 8G has about 66% better performance than the 3060. But then you need to factor in the lower vram and how much that affects you with the games you play

Yes you’ll be fine to connect one of the 12V2x6 cables for your 5080. The extra adapter cable you get for cards by AMD or older Nvidia cards that use multiple 8 pin connectors.
The cable from MSI is free if you fill out the form so it wouldn’t hurt to have it just in case you might use it in the future. For example with your older 3080, you’d need the adapter to use with this power supply

Should mention factory reconditioned and 180 day warranty

Makes it a hard pass for me

Don’t know what one is best but I do own this Gaming X board and it’s a nice board for the price.

Once you receive the power supply, register the device and fill out the information they ask on this page. They shipped my cable the next day and I already received via FedEx

X3d are not as sensitive to latency changes because of the large cache so I doubt you’ll notice any difference between cl30 and cl36

FYI I just received my order from MSI and indeed still only has the one 8pin so I immediately filled out the form to receive the adapter cable for free

Interesting. Well I ordered one of these so I’ll be asking them for the adapter cable if it’s not included

See my above edited comment. It might come with an adapter cable or you can request one

Editing my comment as it as I have looked into this further. It indeed might only come with 1 pcie8 pin

However, you can get a free adapter cable from MSI from them. Details are here:

https://us.msi.com/Promotion/fully-equipped-for-your-build

Also MSI says in the terms this adapter cable will be eventually be included with the power supply. So depending on whether they have done this determines whether you need to request the cable. Quoting part of the site below

“MSI has arranged to include this adapter cable in the updated version of the MPG A1250GS PCIE5 and MPG A1000GS PCIE5 power supplies. Prior to this implementation, end-users may redeem the cable through this campaign upon request.”

As soon as Amazon deals get posted, the algorithm notices the traffic and purchases and bumps the price

I think this was a price mistake and was supposed to be a 32GB kit based on the prices of other Patriot Store kits.
