Had one in my basket. No PayPal option.

Went to get my wallet, came back and order failed.

I have now flashed my motherboard with the latest bios so I can enable the resizable bar feature, anyone using a Gigabyte Z390 board will need to disable CSM in the bios first, then enable above 4g decoding and the that will reveal the resize bar option. If you don`t disable CSM then you will get a black screen and you have to clear cmos to get back into you bios.

Hmm, did he use a Beta BIOS or a final release version?

I had a couple of game crashes (v memory)when I enabled resize bar on my 3090, but on the latest Nvidia drivers it seems ok.

Just use amazon pay guys, no need to enter card details, not sure why you want to manually enter card details and slow down your checkout.

To be honest I'm not sure there was an Amazon pay choice either, I don't remember seeing it but then with the hassle I had I want looking for it either.

That would indicate they want to see the actual card number then, probably to make it harder for repeat orders.

There was definitely something different this time round, quite a few people had problems with the link with access denied by the cloudfare system, my password was rejected even though I'd already signed in and I had to check out as a guest.

I got mine in the basket but was allowed a couple of goes at the payment page, it stayed in my basket.

Had a full day on Cyberpunk today... what a step up from my 1070...

Same here, I mine in the basket for at least five minutes but still managed to get through the checkout and get it.

Same, card was the only option for me, luckily I had my wallet to hand.

If you buy a chair, it arrives and it looks too big for your room, you are well within you rights to return it. I can't see anything wrong with that.

Anyone with more than one braincell would do research beforehand.

So how are you guys managing to bag one of these?
I have the Nvidia page up for months now, keep looking, always out of stock. Wanting a 3080 FE to complete my build.

Use discord, there are a few channels you can join for alerts, still very hard to grab one though.

If I do manage to find one, I would have to be able to pay with Paypal Credit now as I am moving forward with getting my lounge done up.

Unfortunately Paypal wasn`t an option last time round.

Yea I noticed that which is why I mentioned it.

Now throwing away a year of savings on this:

Cheers for the heads-up mate, any chance you could send me the suggested groups?
