@LandShark
At this point, I just want to know if Dallas gonna have any so I don't waste my time.

Craigtech

It’s Monday night, how many people are waiting at the Tustin location ATM?

Impapi

@Osvaldo_V nice! I will be there Tuesday night camping.

Impapi

Any one else planning on camping at the one in Tustin?

Anyone going to Overland Park? If so, please post line status when you get there. I am driving  3+ hours to get there and don’t want to waste time/gas if the line is already huge.

I will be heading there tomorrow evening sometime, probably around 9. I will post an update once I am there. @LandShark, I am guessing because there is limited stock that I won’t be able to get one of each of the 6800XT and 6800 for my son and I like I had asked about( unless, of course, there aren’t enough people to sell them all out)?

Can an admin please provide any info about what the St. Davids location will be doing for the launch? Philadelphia just went back to big lock down so I assuming since its a neighboring town it will have similar guidelines. Major gatherings of people all waiting outside together I assume would be sent away.

2 DAYS AHEAD???

CHRONOBODI

midnight camping looks like showing up at 10am on microcenter at this point, compared to..... how.......... do you even camp for 2 days?

lilwolf555

Anyone know how mayfield heights is for launches? Never even went to a store before and they arent that far from me.. was thinking maybe 6 or 7 am day of but sounds like that may be pointless.

Alzate

@lilwolf555 7am the morning of launch? yeah that probably is pointless man. I've seen a few youtubers say that there is gonna be limited stock as of rn. even though people from AMD said they were gonna have a good launch. Its up in tje air at this point but either way 7am the same day is pointless.

lilwolf555

@Alzate

Yeah. Heard mayfield is less busy so was hoping.

6am too late you think? I'm not willing to waste more time for just a GPU lol, would rather try my luck at retailers at that point

Alzate

@lilwolf555
Well if it's less busy they might also get fewer cards. tbh idk how this all works but I do believe 6 am is late maybe 12 am or 1 am, there is a lot of people that will show up around 5 am. up to you and how valuable your time is compared to a GPU. I know that ima go around 4 pm tomorrow/ day before launch. 

Beheta

Any info on microcenter houston? stock? line? etc.

they didn't say anything negative to us when they came out and talked to explain, they even purchased us pizza and everyone had a smile on their face in the morning so well see

Impapi

Does any body know if Sapphire or XFX cards will be releasing same day?

Spook

I'll look for you gokitty199,  I don't know if I'll stay.   We'll see how bad they expect the numbers to be.   Maybe if there is a chance for a 5950x.   I was there last week for the 5000 launch as well.   The check-in system worked well.

Alzate

@Impapi
I'm pretty sure parter cards release like in a week or two. 

Spook

Yep,  supposed to be the week after,  and I am debating if I will stand for that as well.   Especially if I don't get a AMD card.   Seems to be the most viable way to get a card now,  with the internet gone amuck with bots, and scalpers.

Lundo

Anybody know what the availability/line is like at the Yonkers store?

Aldo

Does anyone know what the availability or how early I should arrive for the 6800 at the Denver store?

Alzate

@Spook
As much as I would like an partner card the AMD ones looks nice too. but if I don't get one on launch im definitely not camping again in a week lmao
@Lundo
Yonkers? shit stay safe out there
