NoSorry to ask guys, has there been a forum deal all week? I think the last deal I saw was the 6700 XT (stickied in this forum)

I'm drawing a dichotomy between a computer parts enthusiast and a gamer here. One of the two certainly gets more mileage out of the product than the other.
I sometimes spend more time min-maxing the settings for a game for optimal fps/fidelity ratio than actually playing it, but that doesn't happen often.
I don't think selling the first card would make any difference - you still already had your 1 deal priced GPU.
I take it they moved the deals to the members forum?
Thing is if you read the rules in the OP here

Just says 1 per customer. Doesn't say if you got the 3060 deal you can't have this.. It's all a bit muddy..
It would be really good if there was a way to "upgrade" to a better card too.
I'm just trying to do things the right and honest way. I'm sure there's a lot who won't..
me too.
my account is best part of a decade old, but i'll be banned if i spam another eight hundred posts to hit the eligibility criteria...
Indeed
I reckon they could still do an open NON-Deal. Not MSRP but whatever the market price is but have the £10,000 and discount code, it wouldn't stop miners but it would defeat the bots and surly its better to buy an overpriced card from OcUK than a scalped one from ebay. Wouldn't matter if the deal leaked then.
They should still do MM deal too of course.
Also a deal on spare F5 key caps might be needed soon too.
If it was me i'd have tried to keep and ship the cards to those who actually purchased at £10,000 (I believe Gibbo and ScottiB said there were a handful) and then pass that money onto savings for the "regular" gamers. I mean if the scalpers are going to use bots and not check the price, I say **** 'em. They'd happily rip someone else off on ebay given half the chance.
