The NVidia site looks like a script error rather than being stuck loading poo poo. Trust them to update the website right before a big launch.

Amazon UK have been loving about all morning with different models being available ('out of stock' but you can still order as opposed to 'currently unavailable'), there were a bunch of EVGAs at a �2500 placeholder price, the ASUS TUF at �650 and some PNY model. They dropped the FTW Ultra Gaming to �770 for like 2 minutes and now they've pulled the whole lot down except for one of the �2500 ones

This is my favorite things about Amazon UK today:

code:

MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Ti 11GB GAMING Z TRIO Boost Graphics Card

�1,174.99

Only 12 left in stock (more on the way).

I'm not using it currently, but I have Tab Reloader installed on Firefox. I think they have it on Chrome as well.

Edit: Doesn't make sounds on page changes afaik which is probably why I'm not using it.

I went to bed at 8pm and woke up two hours ago for no reason, other than I was tired.

I'm awake this early and I don't even have the funds for a card until the end of the month < :mad:

Also, the card I want doesn't even exist yet, apparently.

I am slowly managing my expectations downward to "Hmm, I'll be pretty happy if I get one this year, sure." :v:

I've never followed a launch before - in fact, I suppose I'm the mythical Goon that used to always buy last generation's card for cheap when the new one was announced and prices tanked. Well, except I guess I didn't do that with my 970, because I distinctly recall thinking I missed the window for getting reimbursed for the RAM fiasco (because I bought it after the news broke, but the price was right) but then got a $12 check in the mail or something months later anyway. :iiam:

But yeah, the one I was really kinda interested in was the EVGA AIO version. Makes me wonder how long that will take to make it to market.

Nothing Nvidia sells directly can be put into your cart cause the button doesn't load. Not even NVlinks. But yeah rest of the site is working perfectly.

Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.

Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.

Newegg put something up a few minutes early and is dead already.

Sitting on their page right now, it loads fast enough just that the Notify Me button is there which I assume is still correct behavior until they push the button in 9 minutes.

I'm guessing that whatever checks stock availability and allows you to order has poo poo the bed because prices for the 2000 series cards are showing up on a rare refresh.

Tuxedo Gin: May 21, 2003; Classy.

I'm no marketing wizard but aren't launches like this worse than a later launch that has its poo poo together and actually has stock to sell? Why not wait until they have products before launching? I was ready to snap up a 3080 or 3090 but now we're all going to be waiting around so I guess might as well see what AMD has to offer.
