discountbarber said: Questions:1) The Micro Center post says the following:"We are expecting a very limited quantity of cards for the RTX 3090 launch on Thursday 24th. We anticipate quantities of less than 20 per store."Do you guys think that's 20 cards total? Or 20 per manufacturer?2) Do we know whether Micro Center will have the Asus ROG Strix 3090 on launch day? I know they only had the Asus TUF 3080 when the 3080s launched.3) More of a fun question because I know it's impossible to know - how early do you guys think I need to show up at the Denver Micro Center to snag a 3090?

Q.) How many will you have in stock?
A.) We are expecting a very limited quantity of cards for the RTX 3090 launch on Thursday 24th. We anticipate quantities of less than 20 per store. We are working hard to get these cards in as quickly as possible, and are going above and beyond our normal shipping processes.

Reedith said: is anyone at the Tustin location waiting for 3090 yet? I'm also wondering when we will know for sure if the Asus Strix will be there in launch day Asus hasn't said anything about a 3090 Strix delay? they said the 3080 Strix was delayed but not 3090?
We are in Denver, and there have been people here camping out since Monday Morning for the 3090. i am kind of sad that you do not get the FE at Microcenter, as that is the one i wanted. i hope my store gets 5 or more of the offbrand (lol), because we are 4th/5th in line (my bro and i are camping, and there are currently 12 people in line as of 5pm on 9/22). i heard one store only got three 3080s which is insane. i really hope they put the number on the door the night before like last time, or at least tells people if they should leave or not. i heard 200 people showed up to the denver store for the 3080, and only 30 got them at opening, and then another 30 showed up on a shipment, and then 5 more later in the day. i want one super bad, and didnt even try for the 3080. the 3090 is the dream card.

They said the same thing about the 3080 launch and the microcenter near me had 2 total at launch and another shipment of 11 come in later that day.
