Msrp is manufacturers price. Micro center isn’t the manufacturer. It’s the same reason you don’t find Arizona iced tea for a dollar at the gas station

The first few minutes he’s complaining about nvidia telling him card is $750 msrp but microcenters website had it listed for $900

And did you just stop listening after the first few minutes?

Because his point is that between Nvidia and Asus they gave these cards to reviewers as a 750 dollar card when clearly they aren't and reviewers are being misled into doing a cost to performance at that price vs what they're actually selling them for. That portion of dishonesty is what he was complaining about.
