I think I will stick on this hand, I want to buy PC stuff but reckon I would get buyers remorse, high prices for marginal gains over my current 4 year old set up (which has worked out at £1k per year)..........
But New, Shiny, Blingy.....

You will need to be quick on those as surprise surprise the board partners stopped supplying them, no doubt because they make no money on them and we have like only 50 of each left and as they are the original stock the price will remain as it is, but I suspect they will sell out more or less instantly.

Were selling 500+ per day on 5600X and 5800X presently, the GPU's tend to command 5-10x the sales rate of the CPU's so when I put them live tomorrow the window to get one shall be like 2 mins!

I will give a heads up tomorrow with some pre warning, then 30-60 minutes later the buttons will go live, I cannot give too much warning because simply if I do that more than just this forum gets involved and then people here have even less of a chance of getting one.

Amazing scenes. Thanks for the update and excited/ apprehensive/ panicking about tomorrow already.

Even with 50 or so MBAs, that is more than plenty for the handful of OC forum goers (ahem, cough, cough) who have been out here 24/07 since the 03 of December waiting for the new drop. Let's start an orderly queue, you can ping us a message with the secret link for 1 GPU, and then when the floodgates open, the bots can have them!

2 - Odin
3 - RayRayFPS
4 - Gerard
5 - RallySlag
6 - Martin1991
7 - eeii
8 - SkillTim

Jokes aside, wish all forum goers best of luck tomorrow and hopefully, hopefully we can all share our success stories by the end of the day. May your F5 key be as strong as your will.

9th! I thought I was behaving worse than that. I've got customers wanting GPUs too you know.
 
God knows how i got on the list. But I'm not complaining:). Also how do you get alerts when somebody specific posts. Do you just follow them?

Haha.. Thanks for the list.. Would have been great if it worked like this.. Unfortunately I imagine right now you have at least 20-30 people who are knowing sat here waiting for the cards which will yield the highest quick return, all ready to scalp. It's sad but it is indeed true.

And unfortunately.. as a key worker I must now leave my pc/phone and go to work.. Only chance to check phone is at random 'free slot times'.. So i'm sure I'll miss out again :(

Sickening isn't it. If only someone had the time/ability to do the honours for an MBA 6800xt and get me out of this rat race I'd be incredibly grateful .. you never know eh! I suppose more profit margins to be made on mba cards so scalpers will get 90% of that stock to sell on.
 
I'm in similar situation, however have my phone on me refreshing once in a while :D
But, yeah, shouldn't be this difficult to buy stuff :(

The list is just a record of who will be very happy or very disappointed tonight. Or maybe a list of people Gibbo will drop a message saying get in there.

Probably not the latter.
