So will the 3070 FTW3 be available at launch? More so talking about at physical store locations like micro center. Should we be expecting a bigger supply of the ftw3 compared to its 3080 and 3090 launch?

I mean really, with the limited stock fiasco. What makes you think the 3070 will be any different? In my opinion, the cards are going to be nonexistant about a minute after they go in stock. I gave up on getting one this year. I just hope in March I can pick up one. Way to many people and nvidia ain't producing **** in comparison with the demand.

I fully expect them to be gone in seconds and all the sites to crash. The bots and the waves of hopeful gamers will wreck everything. Keep in mind a number of potential 3080 buyers who didn't get a card tried for a 3090. That failed, soo....3070. AMD cards don't even sell until November, so expect no softening of the blow.

It's hard to say if you will find them in retail stores on launch day but a lot of people are having luck with the notify system. Also the notify system seems to be helping make sure they are not being taken by bots.

I’m most likely camping the store out to beat the bots and scalpers.

With the exception of the XC3 black. I don't think a single unit has been sent out.
Do I look like a mushroom?. No, then why do you keep me in the dark?. An informed consumer is a happy one.

It's been confirmed by multiple retailers that there are more 3070s already in their hands prior to launch. Enough to make difference 🤷♂️

But where do you see that? Only information I see online is about that one danish store and that’s not really a good representation of the actual stock

You probably won't get a card then.

I'll bet you would have to start camping tonight (Monday) or midday tomorrow in order to get a 3070 at 9am Thursday. The word is out that Microcenter is one of the only reliable sources for these cards, including among scalpers. The level of botting the 3070 gets is going to make the 3080 launch look like a busy day at the BK drive through.

Slickrick620 I think I’ll be fine
Hope you already have a GPU and aren't counting on getting a 3070.

You're not going to get an AMD card either, nor would it work if you could.

2070 is not that bad for 1440p monitor, but I want to game on 4K TV. I was expecting 3080 and removed Kraken 62 AIO from 2070 in order to make room for Lian Li uni fan 120 (3+3+1) and kept X73 for CPU. Now hate to remove cards heatsink and reinstall AIO again. Also was close to buy 3080 on ebay but seller double priced card and wants me to pay shipping??? That amount of greed pissed me of and give up from ebay. (for now?)

Yeah the eBay method just isn't worth it. That only perpetuates the bot cycle that has normal people unable to purchase a card (that and the abysmal supply).
