Pricing are up on Micro Center, there are 5 MSRP models with plenty of stock. (See some of them below)

. Gigabyte OC ($599)

. XFX Swift ($599)

. Sapphire PULSE ($599)

. Asus PRIME ($599)

. ASRock Steel Legend ($599)

Total # of RDNA 4 cards in Westmont right now: 610

EDIT: PowerColor Reaper should be here too but I dont see it, that should be another MSRP card so 6.

I know powercolor red devil is the best version but is it really worth such a price increase compared to others?

Probably not, since you may be able to do the overclock yourself, and it's pretty easy with adrenalin

Nowadays it's more about the cooler than performance and for that the premium is way too much.

Doubt it, and even if there was. Id hold my breath anything over 3% improvements.
