  • I'm always asked if the custom cards are worth it over the Founder Edition models... so today we pit the new RTX 3070 XC3 Ultra from EVGA against the RTX 3070 FE from NVIDIA.

      me, you, and probably 98% of everyone else who woke up early to buy one today. As a best buy employee for all of my adult life, I'm deeply dissapointed that my company couldn't implement something as simple as cart protection and a dang captcha. How are you going to list an item as "online only" only to be told seconds later that it isn't available for shipping? I hope this ruins Nvidia, and AMD takes over all their customers next month with their new cards. I know I'll be trying to get a 6800XT.

Depending on how much the pro wannabes push for FPS instead of substance, stagnating game progression, like the last decade. That's the only way 8gb will last...

So everyone could buy only 1(limited quantity) per phone number and you should give a valid phone number to purchase. I guess these changes would make it much harder for the scalpers, to write a bot what has a legit phone number and have access to the sms, also can parse the required code from it. They could also add some random factor to the confirmation sms, idk changing the text randomly to make it harder to parse.

    Some info on noise and thermals would be good. The performance difference is negligible most of the time, 1-5%, so it comes down to whether the card runs cooler and quieter to determine if it's worth it over the FE.

    I was able to obtain a 3070 FE from BestBuy for MSRP.
    I even saw it and other AIBs become available again later (11 am EST) while checking the order status.
    BestBuy seemed to change the Add to Cart system to disrupt the bots. The initial click added you to a queue system that required you to wait to add to cart again and be able to checkout.
    As a side-note; I was prompted to sign-in again when I went to checkout after having already been signed in. The SSO using Google was down, so I had to go through the Forgot my password process to disconnect Google and be able to login. After logging in, I was positive it would have been removed from my cart or even during the "Reserving Item" status but I did receive the tracking number.
    For those curious; I am upgrading from an ASUS GTX 780 Ti DC2OC and plan to pass the 3070 to my wife who is using an ASUS TUF 1650 Super OC, once the ROG STRIX 3080 (Ti?) becomes available.

Originally I was going for one of the ASUS cards but multiple reviews and the fact that EVGA is doing it like this pushed me over the edge. Also, with the additional tariffs implemented on things from China, EVGA gave me a discount since I joined the queue before all of that happened!

In March of 2021, it cost me trading a Gigabyte GTX 1080 Ti Black plus $450 cash in a local deal. That's an $800 real cost for me, since I was lucky enough to get the 1080 Ti for just $350 right before GPU prices went insane again. I'm pretty thrilled to have any RTX 3000-series card right now. And I skipped the RTX 2000-series completely, so having this fancy new cutting-edge card is even more exciting.
