    I've got a friend who had that exact card with a similar issue, though his was an ex mining card that had 2-3 broken fan blades. What he did was buy the fans off of eBay for like $10 and replace them. The fans he got were for the 980 Ti, so they fit in there, but the connector is different so you'd half to splice the new connector onto it.

    Maybe im a bit late to the party but I found a gpu bot on github that autochecks out anything, including gpus, only on amazon. Heres a link to it https://github.com/Hari-Nagarajan/fairgame
    So far I have 3 bots each looking for one gpu model to maximise my chance of getting one. It seems to work pretty well for people and its easy to setup so if you still want a gpu I would suggest trying it.

    Looked online around mid december, was trying to decide which one to get for about 2 hours,  got the gigabyte,  which was probably a mistake,  for 700, 2 or 3 days later it arrived. 
     
    And yes I definitely knew now or never , writing was on the wall.

    I brought a Rx 6800xt from microcenter for a whopping $1100(US dollars) including taxes and that is a RETURN product mind you. These overpriced AMD cards are the only ones you can find in stock becasue they are riddiculously overpriced. I return it because the driver is completely garbage on Linux. I hope this crazy shortage gets resolve soon. I am still using my almost 6 years old r9 380 graphics card. The games i play still run abeit at minimum settings.

    I got really lucky while picking up a order at Canada Computers. They had 2 Gigabyte RTX 3070 Aorus Master, a 6800 and a 6900 sitting on the shelf.  I bought the 3070 even though it was $1049. Another guy bought the other 3070 while I was there. The day before I bought the video card I had already order a prebuild desktop from Dell with a RTX 3070. If I had know I was going to get the card I would not have ordered the prebuilt that I am still waiting for.

    Got one after trying for 30 min and failing at launch, and another 5 minutes few hours later, probably after the shop removed bot made orders. I simply had the stock notification site open refreshing automatically every minute or so.

    Bought mine from a physical store. I paid $650 for an Rtx 3070 (Zotac twin edge OC). I did this as soon as I heard that the prices would rise due to the shipping thing in USA. Turns out, $650 was a great price as they're selling the 3060 for $1000. I personally know the store owner and says that the price of a 3060 (from his supplier) is about 800-900 depending on..... (I forgot)

    Here in Germany all GPUs are in stock for weeks now.
    Just the prices still suck.
     
    It was the same with AMD's CPUs. When most of the US and Canada were still fighting with stock shortages, they were already available here.

    There's a site that checks multiple sources for video cards and informs you when they're in stock. You'd have to hunt for it though, I've long since closed it as I'm not in the market for one. Other than that, check local stores to see if you can have your name put on a list. That's how one of my friends got his 2 weeks after the supposed "fake launch."

    I was following some websites where people typically talk about where/when they're instock, and I basically sat in front of my computer for 3 weeks hitting F5 on various sites until I finally snagged one from Best Buy. It was painful.

    Nah I think it'll be a Saturday video. If they release it on a normal day some people will be at work school or etc but if they release on a weekend day all people have an equal chance.

    I have 2 XPG SX8200 Pro 1TB SSDs.  I found the Flash ID program here (you want SMI NVME Flash ID).  Both of mine appear to be what Linus referred to as revision A with the SM2262EN Controller and Micron 64 Layer NAND.
