Bots are gonna eat up this queue system

Those APUs are still in stock. Kinda surprised by that.

My time in the queue came up for the EVGA 3080ti XC3 so I went ahead and purchased it just now since I had some EVGA bucks and an expiring coupon to use.
Was originally going to plan on skipping it when my number got called because of some pretty serious artificial power limits that were gimping the card. Like to where some non-ti 3080's were outperforming it in certain benchmarks. But because of some persistence of some forum members, EVGA release a beta BIOS that seems to fix the issue. Some cards were only able to pull ~280ish watts of the 366W it was rated for. It also seemed to be inversely limited by memory usage. So if you have this card I'd definitely be on the lookout for any BIOS updates that come out soon.
Will be trying out the NerdSpeak and AGU browser extensions on BestBuy this week - still trying to grab a 3060ti for my buddy's build.

since AMD implemented a queue, it just got even harder.
Posted on 8/9/21 at 3:22 pm to finchmeister08
updated OP for AMD Direct instructions.
best buy is dropping this week, boys.

Doesn't have to be through AMD. As long as it's near AIB msrp.
Posted on 8/9/21 at 3:25 pm to UltimateHog
AIB's are always double what the reference cards though (for this gen anyway).
Posted on 8/9/21 at 3:26 pm to finchmeister08
Just depends. I've seen plenty for the normal going rate lately.

Was it ever determined if they ship or not?
Posted on 8/10/21 at 2:32 pm to xXLSUXx
people in the fixit discord are saying they've received orders. he has his phone number on his website. give him a ring.
Posted on 8/10/21 at 2:47 pm to finchmeister08
Seems super shady, not sure I’d trust that
I called and talked to a guy that said they guarantee shipment in 3-5 weeks..bought a 3080 and used my CC, so can always dispute if needed

I might try it out with a 3080 ti. Always use AMEX anyways, so if there are any issues I wont have trouble getting the money back

Thanks. Its for a friend. I forwarded them the website, will see if they decide to purchase. Was just curious if anyone had bought from them.
