Chaotix said: Hey everyone, just a quick heads up on my experience with the AMD 5000 launch. Drove by at 10PM and there was already a considerable line. If you are trying to get a 6800XT, you're going to have to go the night before. And probably middle to late evening. If you just want a 6800, I still recommend getting to your store around 0400-0500. At my store, they ended up doing vouchers around 0645 or 0700. You'll only get one voucher per person, so only one card per person. Also, one of the people at the front of the line was making an 'unofficial' list. This isn't allowed based on MC staff. I did notice the line becoming much more congested at the front, as if people were hanging out in their cars. I'm not saying people were saving spots, but as MC employees showed up, the front of the line got more congested. Also, this person with the 'list' was moving people around in the line, much to the frustration of many of us. It was my first time going, so I didn't make a big fuss, but did notify the manager when I picked up my CPU. There should be no list making and you should confirm your # in the line upon arrival, IMO. Also, notify staff if you see people holding spaces for someone who doesn't show up until right before the vouchers. Happy to answer any questions.

It depends on the store, but I would say that since others are stating people are 'already' in line, might not be early enough. I'd be surprised if MC is letting people line up already. That seems odd, but that's IMO.
