Highlights
- In-stock buy picks (observational, not financial advice): (1) B&H's NVIDIA-branded DGX Spark 128GB/4TB is still In Stock at $6,950 with free shipping (~$7,645 illustrative landed, sales tax ~10%), its third straight day. It's the only GB10 that ships right now; every OEM GB10 at B&H is still out of stock, and it's well above B&H's old $5,299 low. (2) B&H's Mac Studio M5 Max 128GB/1TB is still In Stock at $5,399, matching Apple's price, where it's a preorder. Yesterday's other Mac pick, the 128GB/2TB at $5,899, flipped back to Coming Soon.
- Movers: no retail price changes among the rows re-read today. On stock: B&H's M5 Max 128GB/2TB ($5,899) moved from In Stock to Coming Soon after two days buyable. Everything else is flat, including Apple's Ultra prices, the Amazon TUF 5090 at $7,799.98, and all B&H GB10s. GMKtec, Beelink, Framework DIY complete, the Micro Center 5090 card pages, Best Buy DGX and NVIDIA Marketplace are on a weekly check (next Monday).
- AI Box deal watch (observational): best same-day discrete 5090 street is $7,799.98 (Amazon, third-party). The in-stock BuyDirectNY AORUS AI Box at $7,999 is about 3% above that, inside the +10% band, and includes the enclosure, cooling and PSU. B&H's AI Box is $5,099.99 but still Temporarily Out of Stock.
- Local resale: a $6,700 Founders Edition ask reappeared after dropping off yesterday, and a barely-used Framework Desktop with 128GB RAM but no SSD showed up at $2,800. A $12,500 M3 Ultra listing is gone, and a 256GB M5 Ultra ask rose from $12,250 to $14,000. The cheapest credible local GB10 is still a Gigabyte AI TOP ATOM at $6,000.
