That’s good they are getting things ready for me so when I get the 3080 I will be playing without issues
Yeah man i’m waiting a good 3 months before grabbing one hoping they can keep them in stock why are tech companies having issues with demand? Amd is sold out of their CPU’s constantly, and Nvidia with this crap.
Wish i could go Amd but i own a pure G-sync monitor and i’m not giving that up plus i refuse to deal with any driver issues been with Nvidia for years had no issues build PC’s for Amd fanboys they always have issues.
One lately was with a HDTV which Amd drivers still to this day have issues with.
yeah that would suck, I believe AMD is best for CPU as for GPU Nvidia without a doubt, its just costly
What is going on with their terrible drivers lately.
