As expected - Scan are now hiding behind a 2-stage captcha which then spits up a "Service unavailable" page.
7 minutes and I’m giving up. Can’t be doing with the stress. I’ll wait for the 4 series. followed the link from Nvidia to Scan and Scan have bumped the cost from £1049 to £1318.99 yeah … fo. 14:40 — the price has now adjusted for me back to £1049 on the Nvidia/Scan page.
Got to the FE screen with a 'add to basket' button available, press, goes to empty basket 3 times then button diappears. All other cards gone with multiple thousands of people viewing and unfortunately the one I added to my wishlist wasn't one of the launch SKU's -_- Better luck next time guys -_-
Scan's price for the 1080Ti FE doesn't quite match the £1049 Nvidia said it would be:- IIRC, that's only £80 less than the 3090 FE here!
Yeah, its been like that since quarter past. But their backend is still falling over from people trying to get stock that isn't there.
(Potentially) GOOD NEWS! I think I've just won the F5 lottery for a 3080 FE (not a Ti) Still waiting for the confirmation email from Scan, but got the finance one (All my GPU funds are in paypal, but Scan had no obvious paypal checkout button this time).
