Really what is the point? How many units were sent to the UK - 11 or 12 if we're lucky..

Yes. 850W would be better but you will be fine.
Quality 750W 80+ gold should be enough.
Thanks.It's an EVGA Platinum so I guess it'll work.

I've screwed up in the past by getting power supplies well over my requirements just in case I went crazy and tried SLI. This time I went pretty close to the card's limits. It was a lot cheaper but I'm wary about upgrades. 850 or whatever would probably have been better

Gonna try grab one for my brother but living in Ireland and Brexit causing all the UK sites to not deliver to us isn't looking too good.

My last resort now is both Amazon UK and Amazon DE.

Just went on Scan, clicked on the Asus Strix 3080Ti..."there are 718 people viewing this product".

Yeah...I'm not going to play this game.

Just want to say I've been running my 5900x+3080 on a 600w PSU for months now with no problems. People really bought into the marketing back then.

So there's enough EVGA Elite members to be crashing the server. I guess everyone is just an Elite member?

I haven't been able to get a single page on evga.com to load since five minutes before the card went up.

The site will load for anyone, not just Elite members. Also, the site is probably not even built to support all of the Elite members F5ing at once. Sucks.

And who knows. Maybe people are intentionally fucking with the site to make it harder for regular users to buy one.

GeForce RTX 3080Ti Founders Edition Graphics Card | SCAN UK

EDIT: I didn't know the FE cards were going to be more expensive than AIB this time around. It's practically the same price as a 3090.
EDIT2: The NVIDIA site does say it should be the same price as the others. I guess Scan are gouging now, too.
EDIT3: The price has now dropped to MSRP, but still no buy button on that page.
EDIT 4: It keeps jumping between £1319 and £1049 when I refresh.

I don't know if I missed it (probably) or if they're having an issue with it, since the FE gets its own unique page.

Holy shit. Friends are relaying the sorry state of pricing in both the EU and AUS/NZ.
Just nuts man.

Norman, OK
Is it even worth refreshing EVGA at this point

Probably not. Crazy to think that just 9 months ago, we were all disappointed when EVGA's site struggled to handle launch day sales traffic & they ran out of inventory in a couple of minutes. Now the site can't even be loaded on a day where the only thing that can happen is "elite" members getting to add themselves to a queue for a "chance" at a product. This is where we're at now.

AHAHAHA
I remember how I got mad at Alternate for bumping the price of a 3080 from 699 to 799 or 849 during launch day and then having to wait 6 weeks for a card because I ordered it 25 minutes after launch.

Good times!
