Affiliate disclosure
As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
Some outbound store links on this site are affiliate links. If you buy after clicking one, we may earn a commission. That does not change the price you pay. We do not invent SKUs or show live prices — Amazon’s Operating Agreement forbids displaying stale prices — so buttons only say “Check price.”
Amazon Associates
As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
R9700 Lab Notes is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and Amazon sites.
Amazon links use ?tag=amdainet-20. The public default tag is amdainet-20 in src/data/retailers.yaml.AMAZON_ASSOCIATE_TAG overrides it at build time.This build wraps Amazon URLs with that tag.Affiliate Amazon links use rel="sponsored nofollow noopener".
Rakuten Advertising (Newegg)
Newegg is reached through Rakuten Advertising when bothRAKUTEN_PUBLISHER_ID (the encrypted Link Locatorid token — not Site ID 4763021) andRAKUTEN_MID_NEWEGG are set. Public account name isamdainet, SID4763021. The builder is a genericclick.linksynergy.com/deeplink URL (id, mid, murl) so other Rakuten merchants can be added later in src/data/retailers.yaml.No Rakuten publisher token is configured — Newegg links are plain newegg.com URLs.
B&H
B&H may pay through its own program or an affiliate network. Links useBHPHOTO_AFFILIATE_ID plus an optionalBHPHOTO_LINK_TEMPLATE ({url},{murl}, {id}) or, if no template is set, a configurable query parameter (BHPHOTO_QUERY_PARAM, default BI).No B&H id is configured — B&H links are plain.
Not affiliate programs
Micro Center and the AMD Storeappear as “also available at” links only. We do not append tracking parameters and we do not useMICROCENTER_AFFILIATE_ID or AMD_AFFILIATE_ID.
FTC
This site contains affiliate links. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.We may also receive compensation if you click a configured Rakuten (Newegg) or B&H link and buy something. That relationship does not change our stack recommendations — those come from the test rig notes and the calculator estimates, not from who pays a commission.
Maintainer setup is in docs/affiliates.md. Clicks go through /go/… and only ping a beacon if AFFILIATE_CLICK_BEACON is set.
