I have several links I check every day.

My Micro Center has them in stock, but $200 over the supposed retail price, it`s ridiculous.

Intel Core i9-10900X Cascade Lake 3.7GHz - Micro Center

Hi,
Yeah that's a suckers price, most are looking for 10980xe for 1k.us which are likely not going to show up
Besides 10900x quad channel memory 10900k beats it in every way regardless of quad channel.

Didn't think bestbuy ever got anything but they did stock a 10900k very briefly as I posted here gone in a couple hours.

Nah. More reasons to love my Cooler Master H500M though it is nearly twice the price of the P500A.

BTW here's a video review...

I really enjoy review vids. Love seeing all the hardware in the background. I should become a reviewer

That's a rehash of my P600S but slightly cheaper missing some features. The rear side panel is thumb screws and not hinged. It doesn't look like it has a removable top and removable radiator mounting plate. The rest looks similar. It's a very strong chassis and very roomy/airy.
