My old motherboard just stopped working, and I'm trying to extend the life of my i7-10700K a bit longer. I'm searching for a reasonably priced Z490 or Z590 motherboard, but it's becoming a challenge to find new stock for LGA1200 at a fair price. I can shop both online in the US (like Newegg, Amazon US, eBay) and in India (both online like Amazon/MDComputers and offline in places like Nehru Place). Has anyone come across decent stock recently in either country? Should I just risk it and explore the used market or AliExpress at this point? I'd appreciate any leads on retailers that may still have old stock available. Thanks!

I've seen prices on eBay US for "new" Z490 boards that aren't too far off from what you find on AliExpress. What's your idea of a "fair price"? If shipping to India isn't too much trouble, that could be a solid option.
If you can have relatives in the US grab it for you, that's great! Just make sure to check the seller's ratings on eBay; it's generally reliable, but it's always good to verify first.
