30xx Series Founders Edition

True, relative to the cost of the PSU it is very expensive. Although I guess a niche market has that price.
 
Yeah well I think you can shift some of that blame onto nvidia considering they changed the pinout arrangement, some form of subsidy could have been discussed but hopefully units made from this year onwards will have a cable in the box! :)
 
No, one card per person/per household oer generation. I tried to get a 3060ti for my son and even using my wifes details it failed so phoned them up. Doesnt matter if anyone ekse buys ut, if tgey live at same addresses, it wilk be declined and you loose the card.. You dont even get a chance for a friend/family member to buy it.

What ridiculous with that system is when your in a shared house and not related or anything. Then what? Only one random person in that house can get one.
 
Well, what it comes down to is Nvidia doesn't want to produce more reference models, certainly not anything near what would be required to meet demand.

This is even more true with AMD, who are increasing production of console GPUs in 2022, rather than the total number of dies for RDNA2 graphics cards.

Reference models = salesmanship.

I mean in that case have it sent to a family members address. It's honestly not difficult and we're overall far better off with these measures in place than having it being a free for all.

Not everyone has a family member they can deliver too in the country though. Not at mine but at friends whom polish he doesn't have any family to forward too and also from what I could see you couldn't deliver to a different address to the registered payment card so that still doesn't work anyways.

Ah right OK so your polish mate that house shares with other people happened to purchase a FE card from "that" website before he could get one himself but can't get one because he has no family or friends or a place of work or anybody else where he could have the card sent to.

And FWIW you can pay and have your order sent to a different address.

billing address needs to match the address its being sent to seen plenty of posts in the chat groups and being declined doing exactly that , makes sense as it would be too easy to overcome

If that's the case with the FE cards that won't prevent you from getting one unless god forbid you have no friends or family willing to help somebody out and happen to fall into the same situation the other poster said his friends polish mate that immigrated without his family that happens to house share with other people where one of them happened to already purchase a FE card.

If the above was true where polish boy has no friends of family do you believe this therefore means the entire process for everybody in general is unfair? I'm sure in the above example you could get a mate you game with online to help you out. I'm sure someone on the OcUK discord would be willing if you looked hard enough.

dont mind they dont allow more from one household would just make it harder to get them on drops, and of course there is a way around it if you have someone willing to help using details , guess only option he has is wait for the 40 series and be right on top of it when they drop the 1pc will be refreshed or buy AIB :cry:
 
I've heard that buying a Founders edition card with a VPN could lead to the order being cancelled, does anyone know if that's the case?

I'd like to upgrade from a RTX 3070 FE to RTX 3080 FE.

Edit - nvm, got a new IP anyway.
