And now there’s Discord chatter that there’s a big enough shipment coming in this week that lead time on FE cards might drop as low as two weeks for people who have already put in orders.

Either things are about to get really good, or this is a hell of a con

I'm going to place an order once a TDer can confirm receipt and also confirm it isn't some knockoff made in a Chinese basement

All I want is to be counting frames...

Who am I kidding: the thing I'm most excited about is having another undervolting project to work on. It's been too long since I've tweaked something. I'm getting itchy

It's a shame how far Newegg has fallen. Their little stunt re: Gigabyte psus being added to bundles is just beyond the pale.

Must be why BestBuy hasn't dropped FE cards in the last month or so. They're all going to this dude.

Either this is a hell of a long con, or this dude has something on someone somewhere

I keep going back and forth about whether this will be a horror story we tell our children one day, or whether this is just the new normal

Never again will I buy from them.

And our first fork-on-box confirmation picture just hit on an FE (3060ti). Awaiting benchmark confirmation that it is what it claims to be.

i mentioned in the discord that i hope he ordered more than what people ordered through him. if he's got 500 orders, i hope he ordered 750-1000.
