So an hour ago I got home and went to different sites like (NICX,Direct Canada, Canada Computers, etc..) to buy my 1080 but found none. However, when I got to Newegg they had one still available, nice right? I added  the card to my cart super fast but  before I logged in with my account I went to check for a water block... Needless to say by the time I got back to finish the transaction the card was gone and it was saying in my cart  "item not available" 
 
BUT just when I was giving up the wife came and told me that she called a local store and they just had received one but that the store was closing at 9 and that it was 30 minutes away... I got there at 8:58, no kidding and, purchased my card.
 
That's the Story of how this guy got his EVGA GTX 1080

    Sometimes I feel like taking the card out of the computer to just hold it in my hands lol. Maybe is just me, but you can feel how expensive is this card when you are holding it in your hands.
