Buying from a reputable operation spares you from a lot of this. Amazon is all hot garbage across the board.

Recommendations?

Newegg has been shit for a decade now (new owners fucked it to hell) and I don’t have a Microcenter closer than a 2-hour drive.

Anywhere that has an actual supply chain instead of website that's just a front for individual resellers. Places like best buy, or if you could get shipped from microcenter.
