*** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 SERIES STOCK SITUATION - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION ***

[roots]

For non-DLSS non-RTX games, rumours suggest AMD will be competitive. We'll find out soon enough.

so 99.9% of games then - looking forward to the announcement!

What's your current situation? Still have a 3090 on preorder?

Any plans to change?

Still waiting.
But I am in for the long wait because of asus.

IF AMD bring out a 3080 beater. I will buy that.

 

[Zeed]

I wonder if the AMD event will be more classy....

Hope Lisa looks better this time around looked almost homeless on Zen3. Them Throusers + heels combo god that looked bad

 

[JTeazey]

You just ruined that mans dreams

If that's the case then I'll be cancelling both and waiting until stock becomes more available. Getting tired of refreshing this forum and having to search for info that should be sent to us

And the ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3080 OC Edition sold out in 30 seconds too.

Where was this?

You haven't actually bought anything from them, they haven't sold anything to you so they cannot be blamed for something that someone else has sold without having timescales of when these can be fulfilled.

yeah, that's why they told the retailers to keep racking up the orders.
makes perfect sense

3080 FE came up Buy now - clicked and instantly out of stock.

Must be a glitch because no one can buy that quickly

That goes against multiple things Gibbo has said

Firstly in the opening statement in the update thread
We have contacted NVIDIA and the graphics card manufacturers regarding the volume of cards sold on pre order. We will work closely with them to secure as much stock as possible and will keep you posted on the supply situation inside this thread as soon as we can, so check back for updates daily

Secondly as he mentioned a number of times, it has been a business decision to keep the pre orders open.

she's wearing a mini skirt so she can get quick access to the big Navi rtx killer.

i think its a glitch cause its been happening all morning.

Interesting theory; they enable the buy button for a matter of seconds - fast enough a bot could snag it, but not enough time for a human. They can then gather the IPs of said bots, and blacklist them ready for the real drop in a few hours time.

Probably not accurate at all, but wouldn't be the worst way to block bots.

I like your way of thinking, if only it were true

Has been like that all day for me.

Not a bad theory if they want to draw attention away from the Navi.

13:30

Have you all noticed that all other cards have changed to COMING_SOON as well ?

Those are 3070, my mistake, sorry
