GimmeMyCPU

A Go-based application that monitors various retailers for AMD Ryzen CPU availability and sends notifications when stock is detected.

Features

• Monitors multiple retailers including:
  • Best Buy
  • B&H Photo
  • Newegg
  • AMD Direct
  • TigerDirect
• Tracks AMD Ryzen 5900X and 5950X CPUs
• Notifications via:
  • Windows Toast notifications
  • SMS (via Twilio)

How It Works

The application continuously checks each retailer's product pages for stock availability. When a CPU is found in stock:

1. Sends a Windows toast notification with a clickable link
2. Sends an SMS notification via Twilio
3. Displays console output with availability information

Configuration

The application uses the following main configurations:

• Proxy list source: Raw proxy list from GitHub
• Retailer-specific delays to avoid detection
• Custom User-Agent and headers to simulate browser requests
• Configurable out-of-stock detection strings

Dependencies

• github.com/kevinburke/twilio-go - For SMS notifications
• gopkg.in/go-toast/toast.v1 - For Windows toast notifications

Setup

1. Clone the repository
2. Update the Twilio credentials in the code:
   • AccountSID
   • AuthToken
   • Set the environment variables:
   • FROM_PHONE_NUMBER
   • TO_PHONE_NUMBER
3. Run the application:

go run main.go
