FEATURED nVidia Ampere (3000-series) GPU Rumors and Discussion

I can't even get into the evga website. I put a few of the cheapest ones in the newegg shuffle but not holding my breath.

Speaking to a gaming acquaintance, says he has other friends who are scalpers using bots. Apparently they did go on sale although even they didn't manage to buy. I never saw anything suggesting they went on sale here. nvidia's own site still says "coming soon" so I have a slim hope there might be more at a later time.

Most of newegg.ca 3080ti's went from coming soon to out stock instantly.

Anyone get lucky?

 

[mackerel]

nvidia's site went live slightly later, get redirected to special page on fulfilling partner. No buy button on that page

Edit: buy button did eventually appear with sufficient application of F5, but site said no stock at that point. Zotac AIB model also appeared in stock momentarily at £1350 compared to FE £1049. That also indicated sold out in the time it took me to press add. Wasn't going to buy at that price, just wanted to see if I even get as far as basket.

First world problems

First world problems are still problems...

 

[Brando]

Looks like I'm finally getting somewhere. I made it past the first error page to the second error page.

eVGA website is down because of traffic I assume but the Newegg Shuffle is all 3080Ti cards. No bundles.

EDIT: might help if I refresh the ocforums before I post...

I'm trying to take advantage of my Elite membership as well, but without success so far. Even if I can get a product page to show, it breaks when I click auto-notify. Not sure if that's what I'm supposed to do to get in on the Elite queue?

 

[Blaylock]

I believe so. The auto-notify should not show up if you are not logged in or not an elite member.

I was able to get in again and this time the notify button wasn't there. The product page loaded and the notify wasn't there either so I think my first auto-notify click took even though it errored out.

 

[BugFreak]

So much for that elite early access we got right?

 

[Brando]

Looks like elite members only get to choose from the most expensive cards? I really hope that's not the case.

 

[Voodoo Rufus]

So, IF you can view the Elite cards available, and IF you can get to the product pages, and IF you can open the auto-notify, and then IF it doesn't crash when you put your info it, you can get into the queue. That's my experience this morning so far.....and I haven't completed a single auto-notify. I've got a 40% off coupon set to expire soon to use!

 

[Brando]

I have a 10% off coupon but it looks like it won't make much of a dent if the only things I can use it on cost a fortune. First I need to log into the website. So far I've seen the front page twice but I can't even log in without erroring out and having to start over.

 

[Voodoo Rufus]

Successfully entered the queue for all 3080Ti parts. Finally.

 

[Brando]

I can't even auto notify. It keeps saying captcha check fail but there's no captcha to solve. I have my adblocker turned off and cleared my cache just to be able to log in. Not sure what's going on.

 

[Blaylock]

I was able to get 2 Auto-notifies in EVGA but neither are for the card I wanted (XC3 Ultra). There still isn't an auto-notify for that card for me and it's not listed on my notifies page. The two cards I was able to get on the list for are the FTW3 and XC3 Hybrid.

 

[BugFreak]

That's probably all they will make anyways Blaylock. The FTW3 and XC3 are the only 3000s made so far I believe.

I gave up. I suddenly realized I have zero need for a new card and even if I get the chance I doubt I will buy it. Not sure why I was wasting my time.

 

[Blaylock]

Site seems to have settled down if you are still interested.
