Did you have it autorefreshing or anything?
I didn't trust myself to react quick enough to any others, so for the past week I had my phone running with all notifications silent except Telegram on max volume. Had to duck out the back while at work on several occasions!
No, I had to refresh. Having notifications turned on doesn't do anything on twitter.

Guys I'm mad. There was a 3080 AIB drop on a competitor site earlier. Was on the site seconds after I got the alert and could get none of them. Multiple 3080s from different brands. I'm about to give up entirely.

I can only imagine 3080 prices tumbling even lower after today given that a new wave of FE cards will be hitting the market.

I would be tempted to try my luck at snagging one myself but I know my bank will only f* me as usual lol.

Also why does Nvidia say the RTX 3070 is better than the RTX 2080 Ti when it has more VRAM and has the same FPS in games more or less
Call me cynical but I reckon they want you to buy a 3070 because they care so much about looking after their customer's interest. Oh, and their profit margins!

You won't beat bots, I can think of two retailers that have zero things in place to stop it. One of these alerted me for a 6800 XT liquid devil, was gone before you could add to basket.
