Are the others £400+ better though?The Palit cooling is just very meh for an AIB card. According to a review yesterday runs 1c hotter than the FE on the GPU core when noise normalised, which is not good at all.

See you in 2070 when the next drop happens
There are drops almost every day, the problem is who drops them.
I put the main 10-ish suppliers into three groups, based on price. There's four in the 'trash' tier (incl ocuk), two in the 'ok' tier , and four in the 'near msrp' tier.
There were plenty of drops in trash tier this week, they stay in stock for more than 5 seconds as well. The better priced places sell out instantly, have bots/autobuyers, etc.
It does seem like production has increased, so should only be a matter of time...

5090FE just got dispatched, hopefully won't arrive tomorrow morning when Mrs is home.
Only PC advise...
Keep the same case, so then you can change as many components as you like and Mrs is none the wiser.
Change the case and your in trouble - "Have you got a new PC?" - "How much did that cost?"

I always get stuff delivered to work and it stays in the car till Mrs is out.
But unfortunately the delivery address couldn't be changed on the FE - It has to be the billing address.
Just don't tell her/him how much you can sell it for.
£600-£1500 you mean
will undervolt it to get it below 500w as well

Nope!
Love that quite a few have bagged themself something today. Feels like there is some genuine movement lately and I've had some of the biggest jumps in my queue from cancellations. Down to 139 \o/

Finally! Got a Gaming Trio for a "reasonable" price, delivery Wednesday.
Define "reasonable" because the only Trio we've seen for a while was at the shameful seller with the idiotic logo for £2850.
