What Are My Odds?

@ getting an ASUS TUF RTX 3090 when they're released? Found a 3080 the but the gougers want + $400.

You haven't found a 3080 if it's 50% over MSRP. You've found a conman. If you've not bought one at price yet, try some patience. Otherwise, you'll kick yourself 3 months down the line.

Don't feed the gouging mofo trolls. If you do, you're playing their game.

Rent a sneaker bot like the others did, or wait. That's all I can figure.

I'm just gonna wait until tax return season - assuming I get a return of course. Really curious to see what AMD has cooked up, but I have a G-Sync monitor... could always change that though.

Here they aren’t even botherring with projected dates. Every card you can sign up for an email alert along with everyone getting he same alert. Rinse, repeat, wait for more stock.

I got the ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQ ordered. Supposed to be here next Thursday?? Credit card was charged. Ebay has plenty of GPUs, plenty of bids and retractions too.

Nice! Read your first post as speculation, haha. Congratz!

Today didn't happen. No release. No video card. Sold Out. Sold out and sold out. Problems? Hello ASUS???

Ebay held out longer than I did. Got my card from a guy who made an offer I couldn't refuse, as my last piece to the puzzle was that TUF RTX GPU. The 3090 O24 is truly a monster. My 1650 has the same drivers and the swap was not a problem. Left the drivers installed and it didn't miss a beat. I got my APC UPS 1500 VA coming to protect the system. Finally done. Now to install the 1650 back in the other computer.
