@China Bat Soup is clowning on fools here. If you're upset about scalpers you're basically a member of antifa and don't believe in private property.

Wouldn't be surprised if CIG thought they could solve the problems with increasing the staff by 92. Wouldn't be surprised if people are abandoning SC en masse and this is just replacement heads. Wouldn't be surprised if those positions are all bullshit to encourage more people to pile into this bullshit.

my friend says he found a full built system with a 3080 that was 1600 and is shipping soon. can he rip out the card and turn a profit selling it on ebay for more than that?

He will get over 1000 tho - I've decided i will just take it slow and let xotic pc do my build rather than fight Jensen and friends to secure a card if i dont score my 3090 next week - I cant do my build till AMD does their cpu release anyways. It was going to be a no compromise build so may as well get it done with a warranty.

I've decided that unless I win one, I all going all in on AMD this time, unless they just flat out flop. Then I will buy whatever is best after Oct 28th that fits in a NZXT H1. Or whatever, I have PCs with a 2080TI and 1080TIs respectively. I will survive until Q1 when this shakes out.

Me to wife: Dont order that Halloween decoration you see on Facebook, it is an obvious scam website.

Wife: but you tried to order a 700$ video card from Germany this morning.

Shit, she got me.

Timing. Notice today on Amazon they're having sales on the Nvidia cards I was thinking about buying, I have less than zero need for a 3080/3090 all bundled with an AMD 3600 CPU, the same CPU I just bought. Timing lol. I've read on other forums that someone has a 1080 60hz monitor trying to get a 3080 jeeze the hype was real.

Well there goes 3090 chance, lol that explains why literally no one saw anything sell but everything was gone - Honestly if they had allowed preordered and made people call in orders this could have likely been avoided some.

Like I said - scalpers in general are fine (i'd never pay, but that's personal). Botting and depleting stock is gay.
