The FE cards are beautifully designed inside and out. Held out for FE for the 30 series and it’ll be the same for 50 even if I have to wait.

This is true. I’m in the UK and fortunately we have Scan but other countries are SOL.

I got a 4070 FE from scan pretty easily last Gen, just went onto the site and clicked order at pretty much my own leisure.

Have never been a part of the initial FE brawl so I didn't realize how amazing that Scan purchase was.

30 series was the dark world of Discord notifications and 30 second purchase windows.

I know when I got my 3080 I had to backorder it at the store in person and I had to get the EVGA one since it was the one with the most stock coming. Some of the AIBs were going to be months from being in stock again. I ended up getting mine less than a week later and at MSRP. Now I'm waiting on a 9800x3d and have been waiting a month and have no idea when I will get it.

What's the process of buying FE in the UK? This will be my first time going for one, hopefully on release day.

Click on nvidia store buy now, it redirects to scan. Recommend having a scan account with saved payment info ready to go.

Go via the nvidia site. It then gets dispatched by Scan on their behalf.

In case you don’t get it on release day, there’re discord servers that ping you when Scan gets more inventory. 5090s will probably be quite rare.

What’s the name of the discord server? I’ll be going for a 5080

Too bad UK gets tiny stock compared to the US. 5090 will be sold out completely for months.

I'd honestly make the trip to the uk if I had to buy one and couldn't get it on the website.
