30xx Series Founders Edition

Without it would make getting them even harder so don't see the problem , people should choose wisely what model they want

Should get refresh to buy again once 40 series drops
Hopefully by the time the 40 series rolls around the stock will be better by then with ETH going POS and the AIB models should have better pricing and provide more choice.
 
Bagged a 3080 FE.

The browser on my desktop was freezing, I ended up completing it on my phone.

Has anyone used a 650W PSU with a 3080? Mixed reports online about this.

I have to figure out where to sell my existing 3070 now.
I am running a 5800X, 3080 FE and a 650W PSU… no issues.
 
Had confirmation on order of 3080 at 20.02. Had a payment authorisation email/awaiting picking email at 21.13.

Fingers crossed, replacing a 2070 Super.
 
WOOHOO JUST WENT TO AWAITING PICKING
Once it goes to awaiting picking, that’s when they’ll do their checks to make sure you’re not trying to order under a different name etc.

You should see this page once you’re verified.

Ah, I see. Cheers, @mrk I may have to see if Corsair have one on their site, I'd prefer it to look tidy as it's glass panel on display.

Corsair do, but at £20 same as Seasonic! Phanteks are sending them out for free with proof of purchase of an FE and PSU though. I know which PSU maker I am sticking with going forwards :D

With the cash saved on an FE card extra £20 layout isnt so bad, just wish you could buy from other retailers like OCUK as I don't like spreading account info around too many places.

Edit
It doesn't look too appealing though tbh lol
 
It was at least 6-7 minutes.

I initially added the 3070 to my basket as it was the first link I clicked. My adrenaline immediately rushed, I panic started filling in details.

Halfway through I thought to myself, why am I not getting the 3080? as that is the one I wanted. So I opened it in a new tab and was prevented from adding it to my basket as it was already full.

So I opened Firefox and pasted the URL, then I needed to prove I was a human by clicking buses and planes, and it was still available.

Then I had a problem on the payment verification screen popup not letting my click the verify button, so needed to go back and fill in payment again.

Then had to run upstairs and get my mobile to enter a passcode for payment verification.

And it was accepted.

I just checked the timings, and the verification happened at 19:37, and my order went through at 19:46.
I think the cheaper cards all went quite quickly.

Wow that is lots of time, gratz on there being a 3080! Unless others making same mistake clicking on the first alerts slowing people down.

Yep! :D Although I got the cable from seasonic in their early free promotion but bought a phanteks later on as they said they make them anyway.
