True, however if they are $300 or less, for 12 cards that is paid in a matter of days at the current rates. As long as they aren't trying to pawn off $1999 processors (I'm eluding to the new i9s from intel) I think I will try to get one. I currently have the ASUS STRINX Z270F 7pcie board and a few 1-3 adapters to run 10 cards... I would love to not to have to have so many adapters... the mess of cords is killing my OCD.
