he's still committed to the 3-5 week lead time to receiving customers orders on all cards including FE cards.


I don’t suppose he had any explanation as to how he’s getting his hands on FE cards, did he?

i asked him how and mentioned best buy's exclusivity, and he said, "i don't know about Best Buy's deal with nvidia, but I've got a supplier. and as long as i got a supplier, i'm going to sell them to my customers."



he says this as his kid is crying in the background.

It's been eight days since my order, so I'm looking forward to being one of the vanguards of either victory or defeat

someone from the fixit discord said they ordered on 7/26 and the Mtech guy should be receiving it on 8/20 so maybe it really is a month.

i don't think he'll give me one. i was blasting the mtech guy because i didn't want people blowing his orders up. i was saying he was scamming people including me.

No queue yet either, hope it happens soon before I’m on the road

Still chasing that elusive 6800xt, although I won’t need it if Mtech comes through on my 80FE

Keep it up. I want to grab a 3060ti but was hoping to see if others on here got their cards before pulling the trigger. Worried it'll blow up before then and it'll be like the EVGA waitlist and end up being years out lol.

By all accounts it looks legit. Was a guy that was an extreme skeptic and was about to do a chargeback/ask for refund and got his 3080 yesterday from a 7/10 preorder

Still haven’t seen a FE card though

yeah, if you want to try it, use a CC instead of a debit card. he won't do a refund until it exceeds the 3-5 week window. he'll even order as many as you want. someone in the fixit discord from the crypto channel ordered 10 3060Ti FEs.

You might get something good

My lowest was 24 minutes, so I'm definitely not getting anything

6800/6800xt sold out, see y'all next week
