[SOLVED] What Shenanigans Are Expected With Ordering 30 Series?

[EricLane]

I have never ordered a card at launch but I keep seeing people talk about bots buying everything up. Is this a game of chance? Spend every free minute of my day refreshing the page on the day they release? Are there measures put in place to prevent scalpers? I am concerned.

It is what it is. Bots or just eager people most likely it will be out of stock for the first few months. Honestly I tend to wait for the 3rd part makers cards, generally they have better cooling.

It's no game of chance. It's an effort in futility.
If they sell out, they sell out... there's going to be more later.

They also get the privilege of beta testing the new card as well...
