Already OOS at that price, nearest listed is now $310. Hopefully some people who wanted a GPU for personal use and not scalpers got them at that price :*(

Yikes horrible time to buy a graphics card! I was hoping to snag one of these for a HTPC. By the time this comes back in stock it will be so old.

...and performance roughly equal to the GTX 1060 3GB

Even the 1650 models with a PCIe power connector tend to be around 10% slower than a 1060 3GB on average, while the ones without them, like this model, tend to be another 10% or so slower still, so not exactly "roughly equal" in performance. In all, a 1060 3GB will typically be around 20-25% faster than this card. And remember, the 1060 3GB came out 4.5 years ago at a $200 MSRP. I suppose having a little more VRAM with the 1650 will likely be beneficial in some newer games, but the 1650 was a fairly mediocre card when it launched for $150 nearly 2 years ago, and I'd hardly call paying $10 over MSRP for it much of a "GPU deal".

The 1650 SUPER was a much more compelling product that was until just recently available at this same price point, while offering close to 40% more performance. Getting notably less performance for the same money is not a deal, and unless one really needs a card right away, they might be better off waiting some months for pricing to recover. By then, there might even be even faster cards than the 1650 SUPER available for under $200.
