Eh? It’s a random selection of orders with no prior knowledge of ETA of the cards or actual stock levels....:p

Its not random though is it? You can clearly see the orders increasing by the thousands between each order number? Gives people a pretty good idea of how many orders they have before them. Obviously its not as simple as that as you have to factor in each manufacturer sending different amounts of stock, but it serves as a base idea of where people stand
 
I'm honestly surprised how many people got orders in before 3pm!

I was sat here with 2 computers, iPad connected to 4g (just incase my IP ended up getting throttled/whatever) and my wife refreshing for me at work on her computer.

Multiple times we both got through the checkout and to the payment page (one as early as 14:06) but each time the payment page took minutes to load and just crashed. Earliest I got through was 15:02.

For the last few days people kept complaining that they want to at least know whether they are 100th, 500th, 1000th+ in line in order to decide whether to keep their order or cancel. The point of this is to provide at least some clarity.

Sorted by the order numbers. Looks like ~1000 orders came through in the first 40 minutes. There is a big spike after 3pm which is likely due to more people managing to get through.

586131X - 14:54, for an MSI Trio. Looks like about 1000 in the first 40 minutes, 1200 in the first hour.

Clarity on what? If your 10th in the queue for and Asus Tuf...and 100 EVGA turn up....you’re not going to get your card sooner...

lol

Your form is missing the order number, probably leave it without the last 1/2 digits?

I can added order number but i thought it would be better leaving out and utilising time as an estimate. I am still optimising the spreadsheet for viewing as i want to split it by manufacturer

I was in a similar boat didnt complete until 15:18 and that's what makes me laugh when they dare put first come first served, because it was a free for all of who got lucky was no order or civility to it. 1 hour 18 minutes straight for one order while some guy probably ordered 50 with a bot.
