I just managed to snag a 5600x on Amazon.... by spamming the "Buy Now" button from the in-stock version of the page that was locally cached on my phone after the product was shown as out of stock.
I used this knowledge to create a local override of the 5950x page that exposes the Buy Now button, and when amazon starts making changes to the 5950x page, indicating they are beginning to stock them, I'm going to spam the "Buy Now" button until it takes.
If it works.
In order to beat the bots, you must think like the bots.
Disclaimer: I fully intend to either cancel my 5600x order if I snag a 5950x or use it as a holdover CPU and sell it for a reasonable price. No scalping or greed here, I just need to get this box up and running asap.
