How often does nvidia restock their cards?

[Mateokunzer]

just curious because honestly if i have a sliver of a chance of paying msrp im taking it

[Skiiwee29]

no sliver of a chance for the next 3-5 months probably.. I doubt even after they officially launch Ampere we will get cards at MSRP for a while..

nvidia doesn't do anything, they just make chips and sell them by the thousands to companies making video cards.

 

Those companies make cards by the thousands and sell them to distributors by the thousands, and ship them usually to distributors by shipping containers because it's cheaper than shipping by air (and it takes up to 2-3 weeks for the cards to reach the country by ships)

So often cards come in big batches of a thousands of pieces (multiple shipping containers) to a distributor which then sends them to various IT stores which then sell them by piece.

try looking at the official nvidia store. I looked at the US/canada store and they have Titan Xp (FE) at 1200$ (in stock) that's cheaper than the 1080ti's in stores

I tend to get an email about once a week that they have limited stock in. Generally about 10 to 15 card... so just make sure to act fast when you get the email

May I ask if they have a certain day around which they usually restock, or if they just do it randomly? Like if they restock around Mondays, I'd keep a very close eye on my e-mail on Sat - Tues..
