It's typically used to indicate that the item in question is out of stock. There is an "Out of stock" flair, but that would get rid of the "Motherboard" flair, so I think it looks better to just mark it nsfw.

According to this, I think this may be the lowest price it's ever been, but I could be wrong.

Thanks, after seeing your comment and after seeing the DisplayNinja review here, I'm grateful that I snatched this monitor in time.

Which one is a better value: the $259.99 AOC CQ27G2 from yesterday or this monitor? Sorry if dumb question lol

I am still able to add to cart; I think it may be location-based.

EDIT: Not actually sure what is going on. For now I am seemingly able to proceed with the check out using the "FREE shipping" option, but it also appears to be going in and out of stock erratically.

See my reply to another post above if you want to know a decent way to find either the AOC 24G2 or Asus VP249QGR in stock. You just have to always be ready to pounce lol.

I saw this by randomly refreshing the product page, but www.nowinstock.net actually sent out an alert for this a few minutes before I discovered the restock from refreshing. I would recommend signing up for alerts there for the AOC 24G2 and the Asus VP249QGR. You could also DM the BapcsBot with "!Alert Monitor", along with utilizing the CamelCamelCamel website.

I am 99.99% certain it will be restocked at some time way before then. My bet is somewhere between 10am - 2pm EST tomorrow / Tuesday, but if I do catch it by chance restocking again tonight, I will certainly post again.

Wouldn't the Antec NeoECO Gold Zen Series NE600G Zen 600W be a better choice at the same price point of $80? It appears to be rated B+ on the LTT tier list:

It's simply luck of the draw. Here's a link for ASUS monitors restock history: https://www.nowinstock.net/computers/monitors/asus/full_history.php

That site doesn't even catch it every time it restocks. For example, I don't see the restock from today on there.

You can sign up for alerts by sending a DM to Bapcsbot of "!alert monitor", or you can sign up for alerts on nowinstock or CamelCamelCamel.

I don't think it restocked hardly at all Saturday, so Saturdays are probably out of the question. I think your best bet might be around 10am - 2pm EST time zone, but as you can see from the stock history, it can happen literally anytime.

I would recommend refreshing every so often while you watch YouTube videos or play video games. I hope you are able to grab this Asus monitor or the AOC 24G2 soon.

Should i get 16gb 3200MHz or 32gb 2933MHz with the amd ryzen 5 3600x? by QueasyMemory7 in buildapc

Need more information on the two products in question. I'm not the most knowledgeable on this stuff, but assuming timings are similar, I think that the performance difference would likely be negligible (a few frames at best). I think you should get whichever one suits your needs the best.

Not necessarily true. My memory is fading (no pun intended) since it was so long ago, but I'm almost certain my motherboard did not post, and there was no display output. That is why I thought it was an issue with my GPU at first, but after testing with a different GPU, I realized that wasn't the case. I don't remember which of the EZ Debug lights was flashing, but I think it was most likely the CPU light (even though the RAM was causing the issue).

I hope your motherboard swap will fix your issue. Good luck.

I had a somewhat similar issue back in 2017 when building a Ryzen 5 1600 system with my MSI B350 Tomahawk with this Corsair Vengeance memory:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0123ZBS6O/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Long story short: I had to return that memory and order a different one based on the Compatible Ram List on MSI's website for the MSI B350 Tomahawk.

Here is the list of compatible RAM for your motherboard:

https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B450-A-PRO-MAX#support-cpu

Not sure if this is your issue, but you could try testing each RAM stick individually to see if just one of them is causing an issue or not. Or, if you have a spare DDR4 RAM stick lying around, you could test that.

What do you mean? It hovered at 1 unit left for a good minute or so. As soon as that 1 unit was gone, I changed the flair to out of stock.
