Best Buy was a shite show. Spammed checkout for the whole time and got errors.

i feel like that's gonna be the only stock you're going to see until nvidia comes out with a slightly better product to AMD's product. there's no way you're gonna get a new 30 series card after today before christmas. unless you buy from a scalper.
before you know it, the "supers" will be out.

Luckily I just wanted it now and didn't absolutely need it to game well.

are nvidia's launches always this bad or is covid really the reason behind the lack of stock? i remember getting my 5700xt no problem last year from newegg. i never saw a "buy it now" option this morning. the whole site crashed at 8:59.

Nvidia and Best Buy can suck a dick. I'm gonna try for an AMD.

i might just get a 1440p monitor. i was looking into it and my 5700xt can run warzone just fine at 120ish frames.

No, it's because they get their chips from Samsung who have been struggling mightily with yields.

Samsung 8nm is culprit, it's major supply issues. They rushed the cards out too soon because they knew AMD was coming with highly competitive cards in all spaces this time around.

It'll be interesting to see how this affects GeForce. There's a lot of people turned off from these 3070/3080 launches and if AMD has a good supply, then you could see a swing in popularity.

Welp, sold my 3070 for $850 already 
sorry boys. honestly didnt expect there to be much of a scalping market for a budget card. kinda shocked honestly.

Was going to keep the 3070 as a backup card but I may sell everything once I get a 3080

What CPU setup are you rocking?
Posted on 10/29/20 at 2:15 pm to UltimateHog
I wouldn't mind a new card, but my 2070 is only 2 years old (in January 2021). Not even sure my CPU could work with the new GPUs - i5-9600K.
Posted on 10/29/20 at 2:17 pm to SCgamecock2988
It would work fine, but ya 6 cores is starting to get long in the tooth. That's only 6 threads too.
I've got an 8700K still and it's about time to upgrade and that has 12 threads.
Trying to decide between 5800X and 5900X.
