I don't even want a 3090. Not worth it, but at least today's shenanigans will entertain me for the day! :D
 
So was stock still available around 6-7am or are people up all night clicking refresh? :p:D
My order went through on the second attempt at 06:04. It was still showing as in stock for 3-4 minutes after that. They have remove PayPal checkout for 30x0 cards. I guess as an anti-bot measure. But most CC will decline an order of this value made to an overseas tech retailer at such a weird time.
 
Might try and get a 3090 so I can sell it for 100 grand lol,
Not long now before the site crashes again I presume,

Btw in case anyone was wondering, yesterday I seen someone say they cancelled their order and brought a build system , as he said they were using build stock to get them type of orders out, I asked the question to the pre sales team and they said currently they dont even have build stock for the 3080s,
Maybe he got lucky with his

Good for you, glad someone managed to pick up a 3080! Do you know when you might receive it?
 
I'm starting to wonder if i even need a 3080 tbh, i'd be quite happy with a 2080ti clocked to around the 3080 speeds. I'm running 1440p ultrawide which my 2080 use to struggle on abit. With the 2080ti being as cheap as it is now... it's quite tempting.
 
I hope you checked the dollar to pound conversion before your post.

not sure exchange rates differ that much. Has someone shot Trump? That would possibly cause that kind of hike. its certainly made my mind up. I’m not dropping nearly £2k on a card that only makes 10-15% difference over a 3080

It's around 500 - 700 for a 2080ti.

The 3080 is around 650-850.

Just wait until October 2021 when you can finally get your hands on a 3070.

I came to that conclusion too. I'll see if these MCM rumours are true and if Intel can get anything out in a reasonable timeframe.
