30xx Series Founders Edition

[faceman123]

I'm so glad I stopped myself from getting 3070Ti this morning.
Grabbed me a 3070, definitely the better, cooler, quieter card.

is there a big difference in performance ?

I be honest if the 3080's drop today as well you will hear a Darth Vader NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo from my house

So quick question, does anyone who just ordered a 3070 see it in their order history? I got an email and they took money from my card but it isn't showing in my order history and when I put the order number in their tracker it didn't work either.

I ordered some stuff from there earlier in the week. Took a while for the email or order history to update but everything went through fine.

same here, managed to get the 3070 order in for saturday delivery. hopefully it goes through cuz its still on pending

 

[Tombles]

3090 still in stock. Waiting for 3080/3080 Ti but it's tempting me!

So I just phoned them up to find out why I keep getting declined and apparently there's an algorithm that stops you getting more than 1 FE per household even if there completely different models.

I bought a 3090 way back In November last year, you'd think it would be 1 card per drop, not person. they still block you from getting another one almost a year later.

I'm clearly not a scalper

Same as that

My GTX 1080 should cover most of the cost and it will keep me going until the 4000 series next year.

Same here got the your order email isn't showing in orders

I hear that. It is such a big price jump over the 3080 though and for such relatively marginal gains.

In orders it should say you have one pending order. It will update later on and show as an order.

Meanwhile at AMD

https://inline.amd.com/?c=amd&e=eu0805l01n8cv5&t=https://www.amd.com/en/direct-buy/&cv=1630783612&cid=en-US

is there similar telegram notifications for these drops as the FE? a 6900xt at £860 is really tempting.

 

[uscool]

after the failed 3070ti attempt this morning I was going to pull the trigger on the 3070, then decided against it and will sit it out for a 3080

Also 30 minutes before the 3070 went out of stock

As you can read through here plenty have been able to buy cards, so that 5 only stock thing isnt true

AMD don't even serve the UK like Nvidia with drops, they are lame.

Yup looks like it was just a random 40min delay. It is all showing now as pending.

Let people get just 1 per drop

   • We are temporarily unable to process shipments to the United Kingdom.

Or 2 per person so people can at least nvlink
