Production of GeForce RTX 3070 graphics cards are ramping quickly. We’ve heard from many of you that there should be more cards available on launch day. To help make that happen, we are updating the availability date to Thursday, October 29th.

We know this may be disappointing to those eager to purchase a GeForce RTX 3070 as soon as possible, however this shift will help our global partners get more graphics cards into the hands of gamers on launch day.

The GeForce RTX 3070 delivers incredible performance and features, including NVIDIA Reflex and Broadcast, for $499. Across a variety of ray-traced and rasterized DirectX and Vulkan titles, the GeForce RTX 3070 delivers similar or faster performance than the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti (which sold for twice the price) and is on average 60% faster than the original GeForce RTX 2070.

That is 1 day after AMD’s scheduled RDNA 2 event. Zen 3 event is the 7th of October and RDNA 2 event is 28th of October. Very bold move my Nvidia.

They’ll all be gobbled up by bots so moving the date only really affects them.

Glad I’m out this has been stressful. Got a 3080 FTW3 ad MicroCenter today.

Congratulations my friend

I’ve been spamming newegg etc. for the past few weeks since my local brick and mortar stores never stock anything

MC is the best bet if you have one. They limit to 1 per customer and you have to be there to get it. Seemed kinda shady the guy in front of me looked like they were being saved for him though…

2nd time this week they had them on Wednesday but I got there at 1:30pm and they were gone “about an hour ago”. Got there at 11:30 today. So they are definitely getting random shipments multiple times a week.
