FE are like unicorns. In fact... more like the toothfairy... i don’t even believe they are real 🤣
Oh, they’re real! I was one of the lucky ones...

Where did you manage to get that card. Just thinking ahead to when the 3080Ti is out where I may actually be able to get one?

I’ve just moved these messages into a separate thread, we’ve somewhat hijacked the other.

Scan were the partners for the 3000 series Founder’s Edition cards so I was on their website on release day mashing F5. It was tense...

I believe Scan are official FE distributors for the UK
This is true.

On launch day of the 3070 I went to Nvidia’s site and when it went live at 1pm, I clicked on the ‘buy’ option and it redirected me to Scan’s website where I managed to make the purchase.

Interestingly, I incidentally had another few tabs open in case my quest for an FE didn’t go to plan, so I had a Scan page already sat there but the Founder’s Edition card did not appear on that one, just all the partner cards. I refreshed and looked and hunted for a sub menu but it still didn’t appear.

So I can’t be sure if that was intentional to keep them hidden or a glitch but if @RichardGraham279 fancies trying his luck for a reference card when the next batch are released, go via Nvidia’s website 👍

I’m on day 11 of my build so have a while to go yet. So I’m just thinking if they release the 3080 TI are PCS likely to allow me to swap it out for that or is it best trying to find one elsewhere and then just removing the card if I manage to get one?

You’ll be able to swap to it, but wait times will be insane.
