forum deal?

BubbleDuck · 8 Apr 2021 at 15:21

Hey whats happened to the forum deals? I saw the 6700XT but haven't seen anything since? Have I missed them or has the promise of another forum deal by the end of next week just been forgotten?

That was fulfilled wasn't it? 2 closed vouchers and a open one.

Thanks, where we're the closed ones? I can't see anything other than the public forum deal?

They are in the members market which is only visible after 6 months and 1000 posts. The two closed ones happened before the open public one which I doubt is happening again because it was leaked out to discord channels etc.

AFAIK

you would need like 1000+ posts to be able to see them.

BubbleDuck · 8 Apr 2021 at 15:25

Understood, thanks guys

Public one code was leaked not surprising think they sorting some new requirements in order to see code

There hasn't been anything in the MM since the 6700XT public drop.

I hope they start doing public ones again, I need a new gpu as my 980ti just recently died. If they do public ones, I'll probably miss the codes but at least there is a chance sigh

Head over to Speaker's Corner and goad some of the frequent posters in there. You'll have 1,000 posts before you know it, and nobody will bat an eye; business as usual in that board

As a repeat customer, but an eternal lurker, this kinda sucks.

I better get to posting.

I'm in a similar position, generally use the forums for researching information so read much more then i post. Been using the shop for all my IT purchases for over 10 years now (since i was a student at Keele). Just think of each post as £9.40 off your next gfx card (£10k sale price with a £9400 discount at 1k posts!)

There was that brief 3080 drop the other day, RRP for once!

BlueInf · 8 Apr 2021 at 15:59

I think the voucher deals are only for ppl with 1k posts?

Lol that seems an ideal strategy

I got into gaming to avoid interacting with people in the first place. The most viable option to get a new card being an ascent to the status of forum shitposter is pure irony :cool:

Forgive me, I was winding people up. 3080s are as rare as hens teeth.

The rule of 3080 club is that you don’t joke about 3080!!
