30xx Series Founders Edition

[Alister Ross]

being dropped as we speak the FE cards.. so heads up

3060ti, 3070 and 3090 so far.

Managed to get a 3070 today! So happy! Its with DPD now so just got to make sure I'm home when its delivered.

For all those who didn't get there - keep trying. I had all my log in details & card details saved such that the process was as streamlined as possible.

Just wondering will these new 3080 FE come with the hash rate limiter?

Don't think so.

At what time did they updated you on the picking stock step?

 

[Roguey000]

Don't think so.

Do you think they will come with Resizable BAR?

 

[Infiniteey]

Don't think so.

Neat.

Anyway can't wait to get mine fitted now.
It's the only 2 slot 3080 i.e. the only one that will fit my SFF build.

I'm very excited.

At what time did they updated you on the picking stock step?

Mine was picked at 15:55 and dispatched at 16:55.

The estimated delivery date is Monday. But it looks like DPD will probably deliver it tomorrow.

Was there option to collect from their Bolton shop? Or delivery only?

 

[Alister Ross]

At what time did they updated you on the picking stock step?

At 18:10 today Hence why I waited so long until writing my intial post! It also took them an hour to confirm payment was authorised. Never have I sweated so much through an entire day.

Delivery due on Monday, but generally DPD have been very good for me and I normally get orders within 1-2 days. I'll certainly be posting pictures when it arrives.

 

[Captain]

Mine has now been dispatched thankfully. Eat delivery for Monday, but you never know.
Good luck to anyone still waiting to either get one dispatched and to anyone still trying to pick one up.
I can finally leave the discord groups and stop rushing about on my phone whenever a notification pops up

Once you get a DPD shipping notice, you can usually upgrade to Saturday delivery for £5 through the DPD tracking website.

When mine was dispatched on a Friday with a Monday eta it came Saturday and I didn't pay any extra

 

[OpTIXy]

My 3060Ti is due for drop before 10am Saturday... However did not get the dispatch note yet

 

[Seblirium]

I also managed to get a 3070 today. Will go nicely in my system and my 1080p 60hz monitor (I'm not joking), though I do have a 4K TV next to it that I use for Xbox Series X so can use that for controller enabled games.

Didn't absolutely need the upgrade from my RX 580 right now, but seeing as though I can get a good £350 by selling that, seems a bit daft not to for a cheap upgrade!

Do you think they will come with Resizable BAR?

I think there were reports from a few drops ago that they already ship with the BAR Bios. If not you can download it.

Congrats everyone, feels good right?

 

[IT Troll]

Yep, FE models have been shipping with the new firmware for the past couple of months. Just make sure your motherboard BIOS has support and the feature is enabled.

 

[Mickcas]

Looks like mine is at my local DPD depot. Fingers crossed it gets out today!

Not sure if mine is at my 'local' depot, as it just says 'Arrived at depot' so I'm assuming mine is on track for Monday

EDIT: Or, I lie, and just receive a text message saying its arriving this afternoon!

 

[RayRayFPS]

Looks like the 3070ti just dropped in DE FR so I expect the 3070 ti to drop for the first time in UK later today.

Just a heads up

 

[neeb]

Mine was scheduled for tomorrow but just got a txt saying it will be here this afternoon !
