Honestly, I would keep refreshing all day. If we don't get them today we probably won't for a long time. I just remember the 2080 and the 2080 Super also being a bitch to get. They definitely didn't sell out in seconds though.
If not, then who the hell knows? Lol. Maybe 2021.

They are fine. I bought from them in the past. Sometimes they can take a while to ship if the demand is very high.
I ordered a second zotac from amazon. Am I the scalper now?

Had a meeting the first half of the day. After that I was alone in my office and wasted 4 hours of hard earned tax payer money away to snag a card using my work pc lol

Went to Microcenter this morning, where they completely and utterly mishandled it because they apparently handed out vouchers last night rather than morning when people were actually lining up. Not torn up about it like some people on line were, but I'm definitely disappointed. Oh well, it's not like I had anything demanding to play on my PC at the moment anyway.

I keep spamming refresh on this Amazon page, but haven't seen one in stock even once.
Any idea if they are all gone or just haven't gone up yet?

Hey, get away from that page. I'm spamming refresh on it - go find your own.

Okay so the CHEAPEST RTX 3080 in Sweden was $900 (€768) and all the pre orders were filled in an instant...

That's so ignorant that I'm at a loss for words...especially if it was not widely communicated.

Considering current availability, that child would be a grown adult before you were able to send them back home.

Had the same issue. I tried to call them last night, but they never picked up, so I tried texting them and just got a boilerplate response to read the faq. I leave at 5:30 and get there at 6:30 and they're all sold out. I took a day off work to try and get this.

Hype is real. A single Dutch webstore (and not even the most popular one) received 800 orders in under 30 minutes. They don't expect to be able to fulfil them all in the coming months.

Should be:Best Buy is the worse. Get your site together, dummies.

Notify Me When I Can Actually Add to Cart
Edit: I feel like, one of these refreshes is going to yield an Add to Cart button for me, but I'm just going to waste time staring at it uncomprehendingly, like I'm seeing a fucking unicorn or something.

It never stopped being a great card because better valued cards are coming out to begin with.

From where? Asus said the Strix wouldn't be available yet.

I feel like I'm having a mid-life [gaming] crisis. I am SO ready for the hot 18-yr old and convertible (30x series), but am instead still stuck driving around solo in my 2001 Honda Prelude (1080ti).
Fucking October? Uuuuuuuuuuuuuugh, that sucks.

How? I thought they weren't even available to pre-order or anything.

Anyone tried Ray https://www.epicgames.com/fortnite/...-supports-ray-tracing?sessionInvalidated=true on Fortnite yet?

Sometimes, some of us are glad to be wrong.I'm *shocked that it runs way above 1,7 Ghz and cool doing so, unlike our local expert predicted.
That being said, the performance uplift is still garbage for OC.

Super disappointed in this whole thing. I had 2 monitors with every store I could think of open and refreshed right at 0859 and nothing from any store was available. Best Buy would occasionally show the same 2 different cards available but that would fail a checkout. Extremely bummed by this whole thing.

Really? This is a Norwegian online store, I guess that could play a role. They had it listed as ready to send out tomorrow, but I was a couple of minutes too slow so I didn't get into that slot.
Edit:
This one is actually in stock.. "PNY RTX 3080 10GB XLR8 Gaming EPIC-X"..
..But I'm not going to buy it, have no idea what this thing is..

All joking aside, we need only remind ourselves how much suffering is happening in the world at present, and be thankful for what we have.
I’ve got an LG C9 and an RTX 2080 TI and a 9900k. My Mom’s healthy at present, and my girlfriend, even though I’ve insisted we distance, due to me looking after my Mom, has stayed with me.
And I still have my job and my health. My cup runs over.
