The 5080 models were actually available...but every single 3rd party model started at least 200€ above msrp.

these where main character has small dick and you need to compensate with something
what food were you unable to eat before buying cutlery?
It's not about having the ability

Best Buy sold out of the 5090 FE variant almost instantly. Got one in the cart immediately after they went live (couple seconds waiting in a queue), but then hit an error when heading to checkout... refreshed the page and now it's out of stock. Ah well, gotta play the long game on this one (like with every Nvidia launch)

Got a 5090 FE. Honestly, I almost gave up after every website in the UK went down (Nvidia, Overclockers, and, in a way, Scan). Then, I found a little web app someone made that makes you bypass Nvidia's website, and after a couple of restocks, I managed to get one.
I recently built a second PC and moved the 4090 FE to that one. I needed a second GPU for my Desktop, and I would have happily gone with another 4090 if they were available. I wasn't thinking of getting a 5090 but I can't say no to a FE, their resale value is insane (though at the moment I don't plan to sell either)

just managed to snag a 5080 for 1200€ thanks to a deal-code I still had laying around.
30€ over MSRP for a bigger triple slot cooler. I can live with that.

I went "fuck it" and got a whole new prebuilt with a 5080, all top of the line stuff....
A bit embarrassed with what I paid overall, but happy to be getting top of the line everything except for the 5080, but it's the top of the line Asus OC Astral. Didn't feel comfortable with the 5090 power draw.
Got it from Overclockers.

A scandinavian electronic megstore called Elgiganten.
They had a few brands of the 5090 ready, and everything was gone very quickly. I think they still have lots of 5080's.

I was hoping for the priority access links to come back but a Web app that does the same thing?

If you called the 5090 a “4090 Ti” or insulted Jensen’s new jacket, you have been blacklisted from purchasing a 5090

I only got one because of this. I worked for the UK, but I am not sure about other countries. It's worth having in the background

That's why - I said I wouldn't even want to be seen dead in his new jacket.
I wondered why my 4090 exploded.

A better comparison would be "what food were you unable to eat before buying gold plated cutlery ?"
There will always be a bourgeois adamantly telling you that food taste better with gold plated cutlery, but you'll be stupid to believe him or even listen to him.

Got put in the Best Buy line queue right at 9est. Sold out after waiting in queue for 19minutes. 5090s were priced too low. Wish I could just pay for it now and Best Buy can just send it to me when they get more. I’m not doing the whole multiple sites open waiting for alerts again.

You're implying that a 5090 can play games in exactly the same way than any other graphics card, as long as the game runs. Because that's what gold cutlery does vs regular cutlery. It doesn't provide any practical benefit.

We should all just log into eBay and report all the presale listings as its against their ToS.

My 4090 just got a nice upgrade today.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Had a pre-built 5080 system in my shopping cart and was about to check out, but then reality struck, and I realized that I have a bathroom that needs to be renovated and can be done for the same price. Ugh, sucks being responsible.

I need to have the biggest e-penis and make sure others feel less valuable in life.
In all reality- I tried for science. My 7900xt is plenty good at 4k.
