30xx Series Founders Edition

very tempted to go for a 3090 FE at this point even though the bang for buck makes no sense what so ever...

Exactly what I did. Bit rich for my liking but I can’t be bothered chasing a 3080Ti in a couple of months time and the 6900XT turned out to be singularly underwhelming in the end.

3090FE it is then.
 
I thought the retailer didn't list FE's publicly, only via NV link. Is that not the case then?

NV buy button links to a 'hidden' section of competitor site - but I presume the address is the same each time. Once that page goes live it seems its go time. The page was live before the buy button.
 
Cheers, got confirmation email but no order in account.

Took couple of hours each time I got an FE card to show in account. Then through rest of the day you will see it progress if you got one.

The Nvidia site will link through to retailer. If people know the link which has been same AFAIK then can bypass the nvidia link altogether. Is what happens on Discord / Parts alert etc just link the direct link on retailer site.

Don't go to order history just click on account overview and you should see the following

I figured they were smart enough to randomise the URL each time. Guess not.

yeah got that cheers.
 
Lol. For real?

You went from loving Ampere, to slating it and saying you was getting a big navi to then end up with a 3600Ti? Too funny.

I reckon you would have to be a complete AMD fanboy to deny the value of the 3060ti.

For some reason the exchange rate conversion was very favourable as well at £369. The $100 gap to the 3070 is £100 in the UK. The 3070 should actually be £449.

AMD's pricing leaves a lot to be desired given they can't even supply any cards consistently.
 
The alert was late on discord.

They always are people think they're instantaneous, they're not. People alerting is always faster

I was sat on the NV site but part alert twitter went off with a direct link to the product. It was a good minute and a half before discord picked up and the buy now button went live on the NV store. I was already checked out by then. It's a **** poor buying experience in reality.

Ouch. Sold out even before they officially went live.
