You’ll be competing with millions of bots designed to buy them instantly whenever they drop, it’s a futile effort. Even with 5 screens going on drops I haven’t been able to get anything. Months of trying.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.So, best buy GPUs tend to release from 9-11:30 EST, i would be on the site then. Good luck fellow gpu wanter.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The drop is expected to start between 9AM - 12PM EST.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I've been doing a lot of research regarding the issue of online purchasing, bots, etc, and it appears that you're going to have a lot of difficulty purchasing online from Best Buy. This is simply because whenever they do drop cards online, they are miniscule amounts which are bought up almost immediately. In my opinion your best chance at getting a graphics card at MSRP right now would be find out when Best Buy will be having another in store drop like the one they just had August 26th. You will have to arrive very early in the morning, or even the day before to guarantee your spot, the online market is just too volatile right now. I certainly am not paying double the price for a graphics card. So keep your eyes and ears open for those in store drops.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.For the 3080 ti's stores had 40-64 cards based on my experience and friends I talked to around the country so you needed to be early in line. Depending on which of the 80ish stores listed on the corporate site announcement you lived closest to the lines started to appear any time from 8am to noon the day prior. By 8pm on the prior day there was maybe 2 stores left in the country that didn't have a line that was too long already. The lines will probably grow faster for this 3070ti because it is cheaper and more people will be prepared for the drop this time. That is assuming they do the drop the same way they did the 3080ti.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Well, the RTX 3080 Ti was in store only with some select stores having supply of the graphics cards. Maybe the 3070 Ti will be the same if I had to take a guess just to take an effort to eliminate scalpers and bots. The timing with the 3080 Ti was at store opening time to get it and they started handing out tickets an hour and a half before store opening times.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I had been checking every 30 minutes, and it appears they went on sale sometime between 3:10 and 3:15 PM Central time. I checked the site again at 3:17PM and the page refreshed from "coming soon" to "Sold out". Basically impossible to get this or any other new GPU.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.be here from 7 am till 12 around those times they usually drop
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Time will probably be announced later
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.As to the 3080 ti dropping tomorrow in store only at select locations id only expect it'd be the same for this card and for the 3080ti its said that the tickets will start being handed out at 7:30 and be selling at 9 and they will have the same amount of tickets as cards available so if you have a ticket you are guaranteed a card
