Well, looks like between the "503 Service unavailable" and "Access Denied" errors, I'm going to be sticking with my 3090 FE.

Twice got to the final step 3 "Review payment" and was not able to go beyond it.
 
hahaha - managed to get all the way through "place order" screen after entering all details, but no matter how many times I pressed "place order" nothing happened - and after a while the "I am not a robot" tick box would time out. :(
 
I was really hoping to make the jump to AMD this year, but this 6X00 series "launch" is such a joke I'm just going to stick with my 1080ti until I can get a 3080 at RRP, and recommend to everyone I know to do the same. Not that AMD cares, but I won't give them a chance again after this.

Mashing buttons let you pass through checkout eventually but then it just ends up with: "Selected shipping country is not available in this region. Please edit your shipping information.". Hence, it doesn't matter if you get through checkout or not, they do not seem to be available in UK (and NL). Possibly not anywhere in EU, just USA...
 
The pricing on this is a massive fail. A world changing 2% faster than 3080 at 4k and 1% faster at 1440p

It's better pricing/performance than the 3090 though but you're right especially at 4k where 2% is not even 1fps gain as none of these cards are getting close to even 100 fps. 1440p that 1% is actually a better fps gain although it's not much and probably not worth the premium over the 3080/6800XT. None of it really matters though because supply is so bad for everything right now
 
The attempted acquisition of these cards is far more exciting than if they were actually available. If they were on general sale I'd not even bother buying one but because they're hard to get I'm trying like a maniac. Got one and a CPU in my basket then and 503 and no access. oooooh it's exciting.
