Question Best way to source a 4090 on release?

[instawookie]

As the title states, trying to get one day of the release. I think I could get a founders edition through bestbuy but I'd prefer an msi, gigabyte, asus ideally. Any sources other than newegg-amazon-bh photo etc?

Have you seen the new prices on Newegg? It used to be $1599 now it is up to $3199!! No thank you.

That is from a 3rd party seller not newegg.
Off course out of stock.

If you look further down the page 1600 from Newegg.

What I was saying is the price was only 1599-1699 for anything they had listed prior. Now 90 percent is $2600 to $3200. Good luck getting a $1599 card.

Yea I saw, the same thing on new egg price inflation through the roof, BH photo still has fair prices and bestbuy as well currently. Disappointed bestbuy only seems to get the founders edition the first batch it looks like and unfortunately microcenter is like 6 hours away from me lol.

Newegg price is still 1600 but none in stock.
If you scroll down the newegg page you will see their price.
Don't get confused with Newegg and a Newegg 3rd party seller.

If people thought card prices would come down because nobody would continue to pay absurd prices after mining died out, well, think not. Sold out... 1600 bucks... You think Nvidia is going to say, what on earth are we doing pricing these without the majority gamer in mind? NOPE.

Honestly not that concerned with prices, if I can avoid 3100 most I surely will..... I expected to pay a smidge over msrp if I needed too. No different from my 3090 purchase last year, 2200 for a MB/Card combo. Now if you could contribute to the actual question much would be appreciated <3

So I decided, by circumstances out of my control, that I will just sit it out and wait for the 4090Ti. Save my pennies and nickels and steel myself for that price.
