Which 9070Xt are you going for?

So, ocuk website just keeps timing out for me. Luckily tried elsewhere, no refreshing, no timeout, no errors. Straight to payment n pocessed
 
With the site crashing on me the moment I hit "Checkout", I caved and grabbed an XFX Mercury elsewhere. At least, I think I have, but my order has vanished into thin air :rolleyes:

Has taken 20 minutes for the order confirmation e-mail to come through. I was about to try again when the e-mail came through.

I would have liked to have given the business here, but having managed to put the item in the basket at 1:58pm, hit Checkout at 1.59pm, only to have the whole kaboodle crash, I gave up as I figured my chances of grabbing the Sapphire Pulse had evaporated by that point :(
 
I think I got the Hellhound elsewhere. Not had a confirmation email yet, but order showing as awaiting picking and payment on card pending.
 
in answer to the thread title.......... none, I am just going to buy a 7900XTX as I need to upgrade from 2070super and I am not going to get an NVIDIA firestarter so I 'll just get the previous gen top end AMD card which will serve its purpose for what I want which is gaming on higher settings than I do now at 1440p.

The FOMO's are going to basically make the prices ramp up anyway and technially the 7900XTX outperforms the 9700xt anyway at least from the benchmarks I have seen.

edit.....

so I will jsut wait untill launch day madness is over like the start of next week and then pull the trigger on the basket I have already loaded on OCUK basically for an entire new computer (still running i7 9700 but its showing its age now)

2 1/2 hours later and here I am having witnessed several (500 error, "we'll be back" message and just zero loading) issues with trying to get a card. Finally managed to get to the shipping page and now I'm being presented with a 4 hour wait time by Cloudflare. Not exactly a smooth experience.

Edit: aaaaaand it's gone.

Stuff showing in-stock now. Pre-order as well. Not buying though. I do not wish to be 2000th in the pre-order line...
 
I managed to get a Sapphire 9070 XT Nitro + from elsewhere (I tried valiantly to get it through OCUK, website failed, other provider was working so went for it).
