On 6800 XT we have so little there is no point in us selling them at present, as such they are under quarantine until a later date.

Thanks for the info!!

damnit i was checking by the hour. I'm treating it like a game now

Bobtherock · 3 Dec 2020 at 19:18

Hey guys, an idea i hope people can help me get traction.
Why doesn’t gibbo increase the price advertised by 10x and then put a 90% discount code in the forums. It would stop bots (or make them bankrupt) and at least give the forum members a fighting chance.

Holly hell, I was watching another thread when this happened but also refreshed OC website. Confused seeing one in pre-order but got PC one anyway! Soon before Gibo pulled them off, as I found out... Now lets wait and see if I got one or not!

Ordered, but how do we know if it went through?

I am sure he'll post it here soon, to tell us if everyone who ordered will get one or not.

**** - I added to cart and went to pay and all good but it would not continue saying "Please set your billing address"
Billing and delivery address were already filled out.

Can anyone explain?

Ragnahex · 3 Dec 2020 at 19:20

remember he's a bit busy moving into the old playboy mansion

RavenXXX2 · 3 Dec 2020 at 19:20

I assume if you ordered, you go one before Gibbo pulled the stock, unless it oversold.

rolypolyman · 3 Dec 2020 at 19:27

Didnt know till now, been looking all day periodically and missed it. Congrats to all who got one, think I was looking at the thread Gibbo said announcements would be on, maybe i am getting too old for this.

Yeah, I wonder what I'll get for my Gigabyte Vega 64 AIO, gotta be worth £200+ still right?

I`m in the same boat, Have a MSI WAVE Vega 64 LC just itching to be swapped out for a 6800XT/6900XT.

£200 minimum.

NathG79 · 3 Dec 2020 at 19:34

When was the 6900XT ~~Paper~~ Launch date?. 8th December wasnt it?

Ploddles · 3 Dec 2020 at 19:35

That will teach me to go and eat my dinner instead of sitting on here. Oh well, I want the XT really so will just have to wait for the new year.

seam · 3 Dec 2020 at 19:42

it was the missing phone number , when I went to my account details and filled that out and refreshed ... hey presto my order completed ... happy days

Thanks Gibbo for all your hard work!

Kenco222 · 3 Dec 2020 at 19:43

Thanks Gibbo, can’t believe I managed to bag one...

Dreaming of a 6800XT but happy with the 6800.

I appreciate the effort that gone into this tricky situation.

Binks · 3 Dec 2020 at 19:45

Awww man, I was checking the wrong forum both times today

. Glad some non-bots got their hands on some. Guessing that's all the 6800 MBA stock gone for now

rolypolyman · 3 Dec 2020 at 19:47

Yep I was watching the thread where Gibbo said:

*P.S. THIS THREAD IS THE THREAD WHERE UPDATES & ANNOUNCEMENTS WILL APPEAR REGARDING 6800 SERIES AND HINTS AS TO WHEN YOU CAN ORDER!
Nothing on that thread Gibbo. Sold a dummy, nice one. Anyway well done to the guys who are a lot better at this than I am.

It's just luck mate, just dumb luck, I believe. By pure chance I've managed to put my order today (second drop) - though still unknown if it even went through or not.

I suspect many thousands of bots were also watching that thread, hence the change of plan.
