My guess is only 1-2 Youtube reviewers will get one, and they'll be told they can't keep them, too.

Anyone seen reviews of the EVGA 3080FTW3? Not sure if I wanna spend the extra to step-up to that or wait for them to add a lower tier card.

I dunno why people think this was botted when pretty much only Shopify-oriented bots exist for sneakers. There's clearly just virtually zero stock and it's a fake launch for press (edit: unless NVidia magically throws up inventory late for some reason)

Just because you didn't find an easily downloadable one to use doesn't mean others didn't make their own.

I got an order in at Adorama for the MSI Gaming X Trio right at 9:00 AM Eastern, but even at that time it was listed as "Backordered" so I have no idea if they will be fulfilling the order or not. Their site is no longer letting them be added to carts, so I am hoping I made it in under the wire. Closer than I could get at any other retailer, I never even saw an "add to cart" button on Best Buy, Amazon, or Newegg.

If it was that easy there would be thousands of easily accessible ones, and these sites are presumably all using different payment backends, unlike sneaker boutiques which mostly all use Shopify. You'd also hear people actually talking about it. No one hides the fact that sneaker bots exist and everyone who's into that kind of thing knows all the names. Similar stuff would happen for tech items.

I managed to put an order through on CCL for a 3080 Ventus, but the delivery date specified in the email is 1st October  Looks like I just got a 2 week pre-order.Wasn't my first or second choice either so not gonna lie I have a little bit of buyers remorse, I really wanted a founders or ASUS TUF one, but at least it's sorted and who know maybe they'll send it sooner!

Some rep did say on their forums yesterday that they wouldn't reveal the exact time of the stock's availability to avoid resellers getting everything. Not sure that I follow the logic (bots gonna bot) but I'm going to refresh the store at the hour and half-hour mark for a while yet.

Welp, best buy says ROG 3080 is a "sold out" not "coming soon" but a rummer said it was delayed. Good news the TUF card is a peach because the ROG card has an even bigger cooler with a huge block.
