You know what really is annoying though? I'd be fine ordering whatever version card I wanted, even if I knew it was backordered 4-6 weeks. Why on earth has basic commerce been ignored here?
People do this every flippin' day. Find product, see what delivery time is, accept terms, order it. In the rush to get that botter money, they're burning good will hard..
For example:
Me: Hello, I would like to buy one 3090 FTW, and throw in the 10 year warranty.
Store: Hello, it's $1599. The item is popular so it potentially will be on backorder, but you are X position in the list and your place will be confirmed at checkout or will expire within 15 minutes. The item will ship within 2-6 weeks.
Me: Here's my payment info to process my payment. Thank you, I'll be eagerly awaiting it.
Store: Thank you, have a good day.
Fin.
It's not rocket surgery.
Sir... we're gonna need you to unravel... there's no room for rational logic during these times of panic... please rip your shirt off and streak the quad...
Can you imagine the backlash when the 3070s go on sale to this crap? 3070 is the higher end mid range card for a lot of people.. As a former 60 tier user for years.. the 70 is a great deal. We're seeing the backlash from folks that can afford an $800 gpu. If Nvidia lets this happen when 10x more people or more are after a card.. Let's just say TSLA stock is more stable when Elon tweets while smoking on the Joe Rogan Podcast while zooted. People, parents especially, might think it's just better to get that console or the other brand graphics card.
