Chasemm18 said: For those going to the Tustin store I will update when I arrive at the store with what the situation is like next week.
Chasemm18 said: Well people interested in Tustin...apparently there are already 30+ people lined up according to the Nvidia discord...people literally waiting a week for Thursday’s launch...I guess it’s a waste of time for me to try and go

Do you think EKWB will make blocks for MSI and EVGA too? I was kinda curious about that I sent them an email asking them if they plan on releasing water blocks for other models and am waiting for a response. So far this is all I have so far. In my opinion the FE cards would be the best, because would take up less space because of the smaller PCB, but it probably won't be until next year before anyone other than a bot can get one of those. I'm not waiting until next year to get a FE, because I want to play cyberpunk 2077 on a 3090 which releases in November. Most microcenters had TUF series 3080 cards. So I'm really really hoping they will have 3090 TUF series cards. The other cards that EKWB has blocks for, are some vendors that I have never heard of before. Seems like there's the reference PCB that all vendors that I have never heard of before. All the major companies like Zotac Asus etc are using some other PCB design that is not reference design apparently. Or perhaps they are just placing components in different locations.EKWBEKWB said blocks where coming for the following models (source = EKWB email advertisement on 9/16)3080 FE3090 FE3080 TUF series3090 TUF series https://www.ekwb.com/configurator/waterblock/3831109832462ASUS ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3090 24G GamingASUS ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3080 10G GamingASUS ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3080 10G Gaming OCASUS ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3090 24G Gaming OC https://www.ekwb.com/configurator/waterblock/3831109832196Gainward Gainward GeForce RTX 3080 PhoenixGainward Gainward GeForce RTX 3080 Phoenix GSGainward Gainward GeForce RTX 3090 PhoenixGainward Gainward GeForce RTX 3090 Phoenix GSGalax GALAX GeForce RTX 3080 EX GamerGalax GALAX GeForce RTX 3090 EX GamerKFA2 KFA2 GeForce RTX 3080 SG 10GB (38NWM3MD99NK)KFA2 KFA2 GeForce RTX 3090 SG 24GBPalit Palit GeForce RTX 3080 GamingPro (NED3080019IA-132AA)Palit Palit GeForce RTX 3090 GamingPro (NED3090019SB-132BA)Palit Palit GeForce RTX 3090 GamingPro OC (NED3090S19SB-132BA)PNY PNY GeForce RTX 3080 10GB XLR8 Gaming EPIC-X RGB Triple Fan Edition (VCG308010TFXPPB)PNY PNY GeForce RTX 3090 24GB XLR8 Gaming EPIC-X RGB Triple Fan Edition (VCG309024TFXPPB)Bykskihttps://www.bykski.us/collections/gtx-rtx-3080-3090/products/bykski-full-coverage-gpu-water-block-for-rtx-3080-3090-founders-edition3080 FE3090 FE

kishinfoulux said: Hmmm the selection of 3080's on Microcenters online store keeps shrinking. At launch there were seven different results. Then a short while later six. Now there are only three. That doesn't seem to bode well for future stock.
Chasemm18 said: Hey all! For everyone asking for proof, sadly I don’t have any, I was just passing along something someone said in the Nvidia discord, I hope it is just to deter people from lining up but the way it was just thrown into the chat made it seem like this person was airing their own frustration with it. @Junkie that was my plan too! I was gonna have my friend who is going to be working in the area on Tuesday , scout out the store and snap a pic of how bad it is, if it is just a rumor I’d happily be your line buddy! Hold your spot while you use the bathroom etc. I have a feeling I’m gonna need to get there earlier though, probably at 12pm if you waited 14 with no luck.

Thank you fir the offer, I really appreciate it, it’s most likely something they are telling people to deter them from going... Hopefully. I’ll probably set up around 12-3pm ish. I hope to see you there!
Chasemm18 said: @GLuE that’s more reassuring! Thank you! And @YoshiMoshi I know...we are nuts, but after the 3080 craziness I don’t want to risk it haha can’t wait to finish dune on audible haha
Chasemm18 said: Tustin here , fingers crossed , I need that 3090
elcid_777 said: DougieNotFresh said: There’s nothing illegal about paying someone to stand in line for you. I’ve never done that, but I have thought about it at times. But it’s definitely not illegal. I dont believe I said it was??? what I did say is that legal measures should be in place to prevent scalpers or discourage them at least.

clementk said: just wanted to mention the Houston store only handed out the vouchers just before the store opened. and the only people that got them were there since around 8PM and earlier on Wednesday. GL with the 3090 sounds like the stock will be less then 3080 and if you want a 3070 GL will be waiting in line for long time
kishinfoulux said: There hasn't been any photographic proof of people lining up already at any locations. Would it surprise me? Not at all, but I'm not going to believe it until I see it. For now it just seems like a deterring strategy, by others.
