Can we get a count on the forum who got their pre-orders? Maybe a poll? The breakdown probably all $500 models, but would still be neat to see how many who tried & failed to get theirs.

What's the difference between these 2 choices?
- Secured RTX 3080 Order
- Received RTX 3080 Order
1. You actually ordered the card.
2. You actually have the card now.
Edit: Maybe I'll change it to purchased.
Edit 2: I have no editing powers on poll options.
What options do you want listed / changed?
Maybe best to delete the poll and let you recreate it before it gets too many votes?
i went through the exact same thing as you.I have a PS5 disc pre-order, a XSX pre-order, and have not been able to get a 3080 order in.
I won't keep both console pre-orders. I'm trying to decide what a really want to do.
1. I will end up with 1 console for sure.
2. I would prefer to have a PS5 digital to the disc one
3. Other than Demon's Souls, I'm not really interested in any otherPS5cross gen Sony game.
4. Gamepass is becoming more appealing with $70 games and also Xbox has games there that I missed out on.
5. As much as I want a 3080, after 6+ months of WFH due to covid, I don't really want to sit at a desk longer than my workday to play games.
Decisions, decisions, decisions, but most likely I'll end up with a 3080 and a PS5. If MS didn't put their stuff on PC, it would be Xbox hands down.

In the end I chose to go with XSX and PS5. Dropped the 3080. The price just wasn't worth it. I can wait for a more stable time. The price of 2 consoles for 1 GPU.
Target and Amazon were a breeze for me for XSX. Same for PS5 with Target. Best Buy was brutal for both, which stinks because it was my primary choice due to pick up.Got 3 PS5 preorders and 2 XSX (different/backup retailers). Which is more or less all I wanted. I'm pretty content. Both were pretty hairy but especially XBox's preorders today were pretty brutal, so I'm happy to have come away with some. Xbox could have easily gone either way, I could have easily gotten zero.
BTW same poll on Era, ouch again for XSS. Lot closer Ps5/XSX spread than usual polls
Appears most people got what they wanted.
Good side effect you can tell yourself, it's possible AMD's offerings could offer more value in a ~month (499 for 3080 performance etc?) so now you can wait and find out.
I’m locked to nvidia ecosystem for GPUs. When DS libraries run on AMD I will go over. Until then I’m stuck with cuda.Good side effect you can tell yourself, it's possible AMD's offerings could offer more value in a ~month (499 for 3080 performance etc?) so now you can wait and find out.

BTW maybe you could add Oculus Quest 2...I'm probably the only one who preorder that
