    Nitroman got a reaction from scottyseng in Good Websites to Spam F5 on 9/17 to get a 3080?   
    Best bet seems to plan ahead for the card you actually want to get, then have amazon, nvidia, bestbuy, and microcenter sites all open at once. Don't expect to be refreshing all day unless there's some hidden hourly quota that'll cause the sites to show "out of stock" for a certain period of time. I fully expect the Founder's edition to be sold out within minutes and the rest of the 3rd party models soon after. 
     
    edit: I'm considering attempting to get one on Thursday, and I haven't decided if I want to go Founder's or AIB. Make no mistake though, there will likely be no reviews out for the AIB cards at the time of purchase so you'll have less info on those models than what will be out for the FE cards.

    Nitroman got a reaction from jones177 in Which 3080 am I most likely to get and from what site?   
    Yeah seems like having some method of auto-filling your address/card info will give OP a slight edge over the literal thousands other people trying to purchase cards. Hey on the bright side, it's not like any of us will have to worry about refreshing a page for the entire day since stock will be run dry probably by 11am EST.
