I'm curious what brands are everyone's stores getting? NJ is getting Asus and EVGA.

Any word on the Dallas store? They aren't even placing calls on hold they just say to call back later and hang up. =(
I was trying to go after work today at 7PM ,  but that seems like a complete waste of time lol. If the MC in Missouri has a line 
Dallas definitely does, I just can't get any confirmation without driving 35 minutes over there to check. Oh well I guess I'll hope for October restocks...

Same, I went yesterday and they said last week the line started around 7pm and they should know by then how many they have in stock. I'll report how it looks when I get there if someone hasn't already.

Six in line at Cambridge now. And I misspoke. Up to 8 more cards coming. Totaling up to 10 cards total

Well I guess that's that then. I was planning on getting there at around 9pm-10pm tonight but that's likely a waste of time at this point. Is the line still holding at six?

Contrast77

Awesome if the line isn't deep for Dallas store lets start a loot list for placement so we can take bathroom breaks lol...

Correct - from what I read in a previous post Westmont has at least 5 people in line already.

Yeah, probably going to take my chances for a FE online tomorrow AM, as slim as those are. If I waited 20+ hours for a card and didn't get one I don't know how healthily I'd react.

Microcenter is claiming the EVGA 3090 cards are being recalled and they will not sell them tomorrow morning! So inventory here went from 11 to 3! Anybody else hearing these?

Ive not heard that. Did the store tell you this?

CletusCassidy

Was going to come to Paterson NJ around 6 pm ET tonight. No longer worth based on my read here. Confirm from those of you there? Also thanks for the good reporting.

I call shenanigans. The cards arrived today so they would have shipped at most a couple days ago. What would EVGA have learned in a couple of days, that didn't already know, that would caused them to recall the cards?

No point of lines. I went to microcenter yesterday and there were people waiting 3 days before the 3090 launch. I was gonna camp a day before but after seeing over 20 people waiting from 3 days before I stand no chance.

11 in line in Houston

I'm currently in line at Microcenter in Westmont, IL and I'm in 11th place.   The words is they have 11 cards.

Yes a employee came out and told us... ksantangelo223 said:

Good morning! Any Tustin updates?

To everyone in line. Good luck and wish you the best. Be polite to your neighbors and make a few new friends along the way. In these trying times, the best we can do is be nice to each other, just as we have been civil and nice in these forums. Enjoy the card too!

We are currently first in line at the Overland Park, Kansas Location. Got there about 10am. Was initially told it was illegal for us to wait but we found a manager and got it straightened out they have been very nice and got us setup. They said they are only getting 2-3 3090's. Honestly Nvidia can go to hell. We should be sharing this awesome new tech as a gaming community but Nvidia created this mess with their early release when stock was not anywhere near a respectable level. It is 24 hours before launch and pretty much all 3090's are claimed for already by having 2-11 people in line 24 hours or more before hand. I am excited I am first in line but this is sad situation for the gaming community

If someone in line sees this and has a chance to ask a Micro Center employee about the various models they anticipate to have in stock:

Ask them whether they will have any ROG Strix cards from Asus, or if it is only the TUF line (as was the case for the 3080s).
