When can I realistically get a 3070 somewhere like newegg without competing during some small availability window? New few months? Middle of 2021?

The most reliable way to acquire a 3070 is to create a youtube channel and start reviewing hardware. Just make up random numbers since you don't actually have it. The companies won't be able to tell the difference, and start sending you shit.

This is the point where Tyen would come in handy to bot army our viewer numbers so nvidia actually notices our channel.

I went to get my hdd's at the local shop today and there was a dude in front of me. Must have been in his late 20's. He picked up a Zotac (eeeeeew) 3090. And as the clerk put it on the counter I could see his eyes light up. Next thing he's acting like a kid in a candy store. He couldn't stay still like a normal person and he kept touching the box at least 7 times as he was waiting to pay. I didn't start counting the touches until I noticed him doing it. And when he left he bolted out of there like he had stolen something. Hit me on the shoulder on the way out. I bet he didn't even notice that. Oh, he also bought a ryzen cpu (couldn't tell which number), MSI motherboard and some other crap. It was great to see someone so happy.

I wonder if he has to snipe / ebay one or if his agent just calls Nvidia in exchange for this post.

In all seriousness, I bet someone just name drops for him, ala Academy awards gift bag.
Those are some serious grandma curtains.
He's British.

Absolutely gets them for free. Sending him a $1500 video card for an IG post is ludicrous in amount of return for the dollar in advertising. 15 million people follow him, plus the links and news articles that will link it. I wouldn’t be surprised if they gave it to him and paid 10s of thousands for him to post it.

I’m friends with a music producer with a fraction of a fraction of Cavills followers and companies send him high end free shit all the time. His entire house is Sonos speakers and he didn’t have to do shit for it, they contacted him.

So essentially it would be easier to start a career in acting, work your way to the top and say you love gaming to get a new Nvidia card than to try and buy one from newegg?

Went to Microcenter this morning to get my new CPU. About a dozen people all standing around asking about the 5 3080s they had in stock, apparently all sold out within 30 minutes of store opening (I got there just a little bit past an hour after they opened).

One guy did buy the liquid cooled 3090 they had in stock for $1800 though.
