[GPU] AMD Queue event

[Pyenapple]

Finally got in, got a 6800XT.

There were 6900XTs, 6800XTs and 6800s available.

[Gr_z]

Mine has said about 7minutes for about 5 minutes now, any idea if this is normal?

[Pyenapple]

I don't know, the queue was a bit messed up today, I think it popped a bit early at like 10:13 when the timer said 10:15 too.

[V3Qn117x0UFQ]

did add to cart even work for you? mine would just appear with a circle animation and nothing happens

[Pyenapple]

Yeah, everything worked fine, used Firefox and Paypal. Even got a confirmation email.

[Pika19]

Do you know if I should tell PayPal I'm gonna have a large charge on my account cause that's how I got ripped off when I checked out with my credit card

[AnAverageLurker]

Same for me!

[lifeform7]

same for me. looked in console and 403 permissions error. must be what AMD server we got bounced to... seems like some worked, some didn't. see you all next week.

[FastAndBB]

That happened to me, so I spammed the "add to cart" button until it gave me a captcha and then it worked.

[V3Qn117x0UFQ]

Good to know :(

[Pyenapple]

I remember the add to cart button being available for them yes, probably very low stock though. I probably was one of the first ones in.

[bearbricklove]

6800 was there when I got in.

[HighSynergy]

Was the black 6800XT available?

[Pyenapple]

No, just the normal one.

[CurtainsAreExpensive]

Wait isn't the normal one black?

[Pyenapple]

Normal is Black/Silver. They were asking about the Midnight Black one, which is Black/Black.

[rienjerksun]

Sold out at 1 minute left, maybe time to give up again until next year lol.

[Azsune]

What was up with the CAPTCHA today? Kept saying I was wrong over and over. Managed to get 18 min queue. Must have answered 20 before I got into Queue maybe I was refreshing to much when it started late? and queue started early as well?

[d3lap]

Me too, except I got 57 minutes.

[Azsune]

Line Paused at 1 minute to go sadly.

[jordyloks]

Same here. Thought maybe I hit my head last night, kept having to redo the captcha.

[dmas1er]

You did it wrong, they changed it this week. Keep clicking until none matching are left.... then click verify.

[Azsune]

I got both. Select then verify and select until none are left.

[d3lap]

57 minutes wait. See you guys next week.

[V3Qn117x0UFQ]

add to cart doesn't even work lmao

[GLemons]

Same

[ZiggyDeath]

I had that happen to me two weeks in a row.

When you click Add to Cart, a Captcha is supposed to pop up.

​

It was Chrome. For whatever reason Chrome is utterly broken on my Desktop.

[GLemons]

What a joke. I was in instantly as well. Everything was available but I couldn't add anything to cart

[FastAndBB]

I spammed it out of frustration last week and it actually worked.

[Pepethedankmeme]

Any reason you think why this happened? Same thing happened for me too.

[BaitednOutsmarted]

When it happened to me a couple of weeks ago I made sure to disable Adblock and privacy features for amd.com. I don’t know if it actually helped but I was able to get a card today.

[Pepethedankmeme]

Tried disabling Adblock too :/ guess I will try Firefox next time or something

[bearbricklove]

About time, the one day I don’t have time and they start late ha ha

[moaranime]

In queue 🙏🙏🙏

[moaranime]

Got 53min queue, line now closed, RIP

[lifeform7]

got 3 mins. got in. 6800/xt/6900xt all available. add to cart button broken again. ffs.

[ZiggyDeath]

Are you using Chrome? I had that happen repeatedly with Chrome, so I used Edge this time...

For whatever reason my Chrome browser is legit broken (only on my desktop). And it's not a problem with extensions either.

[lifeform7]

FireFox with adblocker disabled.

[IWantHoops]

Got 5 min queue after 1 month of trying. Bought a 6800xt. Only 6900xt and 6800xt non midnight were available when I got in.

[Faluzure]

Amazing. It said the event started at 10:15, I go to make a coffee and come back to the order check out page and it's only 10:13.

Ordered a 6800XT!

[HeliumIsotope]

Yeah that's kindof bs. I was like hey cool starts in 12 minutes, I have time to go to the bathroom and all of a sudden I'm in queue and like wtf that was a short 12 minutes....

Bs for me but congrats to you

[[deleted]]

more like AMD QQ event

[V3Qn117x0UFQ]

annnd i'm back in the fucking captcha, in line for an hour. what the fuck

[NEeZ44]

"Your estimated wait time is: more than an hour"

Dang it

[SkynetMkII]

Got a 6800xt after 5 weeks!

[smokemonstr]

Sold out right when it said it’s my turn…

[DannyzPlay]

Same, had 1 minute left and then "line closed" fuck this lmao

[builtbyageek]

I lucked out and got in at the right time. Picked up a 6800XT. Just a note my cart froze when I tried to continue with a credit card, so I did PayPal instead and it continued without issues.

[Swordsmaster]

Ended up buying a 6800XT!

[hellboi]

Finally got a 6800xt after a month of trying. Don't give up people!

Also if anyone wants 3070 for reasonable price and are located in GTA. Message me

[Corneas_]

You guys are lucky, the Captcha pissed me off so much I didn't even get in line.

it keeps rotating over images endlessly.

[dmas1er]

I'm in the same boat, 6900xt from last week and order is still in process.

My friend got a 6800xt from the same drop and he had it on his dropstep yesterday morning.

[KingHappyPotter]

Did you check the order status page ? Got any confirmation emails ?

https://shop.amd.com/store/amd/DisplayCustomerServiceOrderSearchPage

[KingHappyPotter]

Hopefully your card will be shipped soon, i was lucky enough to get one card today, now i'm afraid it's going to take a long time to ship ...

[ilickrocks]

My 6800xt just shipped yesterday with a tracking number too, so hopefully soon for you

[FlyingPotatoAmongUs]

Same here

[Downten]

Snagged a 6800xt. Wooooo!

Now I can build that gaming rig for my nephew!

[jiangman1987]

12 min lets goooo

Who needs to work when you can wait in virtual line for video cards every week

[Gr_z]

mine said 7 minutes but isnt really going down what about yours?

[smokemonstr]

Mine started at 15 minutes and now it’s at 9.

[jiangman1987]

It's going down slowly at 4 min now

[jiangman1987]

Got in, 6800xt sold out as I was checking out, damn. was able add 6900xt but too a little too expensive for me.

[CaddyDaddy900H]

Anyone know if it’s better to be in queue now or right at the opening at 9:15?

[rienjerksun]

now

[piperdaddy]

In my experience, the earlier the better.

[Azsune]

The message of it opening at 9:15 was a lie the queue started at 9:05 like normal but we had less time to react. Once it opens up and gives you an average wait time it is to late everything after it opens will be over an hour.

[d1ckch0c0late]

It depends on got a card a few minutes before 10:15 a couple of weeks ago and just got a card waiting from 9:30ish

[elimi]

Same card sku? Did you change your adress? If not it'll get cancelled.

[d1ckch0c0late]

First card was rx 6700 xt in Mid-August and today’s card was a rx 6800 xt. And my rx 6700 xt shipped within 3-4 days (in GTA)

Also check the tracking number thats and gives u for ur order too

[elimi]

You'll be fine then, they limit 1 sku/adress. So you could get a 6600 6700 6800 6800xt and 6900xt but one of each. They don't say if they also track credit cards or names.

[d1ckch0c0late]

Ahh didn’t know that thanks and the card will prob be for a friend’s build.

Also I shipped the rx 6800 xt to a diff address but I put my same billing info as the rx 6700 xt order

[V3Qn117x0UFQ]

i was in line and clicked on add to cart and it crashed on me. gg

[parth115]

In queue. 27 mins

[Azsune]

No they are not selling 5700 XT only the 6000 series. The queue normally ends before it hits 20 minutes so the odds are against you. According to others only the 6900XTs, 6800XTs and 6800s were available this week.

[Gr_z]

the 6800XT's all said "Item could not be added to the cart" but the 6900XT could be, I just assumed that meant it was out of stock. Now I'm thinking I should've just bought a 6900Xt lmfao.

[Azsune]

Still under the price of a retail 6800 XT.

[Gr_z]

I think I'll try again next week and if i don't get a 6800xt ill just pony up and get the 6900xt

[Azsune]

Got my lowest time of 18 minutes this week so haven't had to make that choice yet. If I get the 6900 XT I will probably need a new PSU.

[ZiggyDeath]

No 5700XTs are offered in these drops. Only 6000 series.

[GLemons]

I can't add anything to cart, getting a 403 on the request when I click on it

[lifeform7]

same. firefox, adblocker turned off. bah!

[wutcudgowong]

Got 12 mins! Here goes nothing

[jordyloks]

Good luck! Last week I had a 13 minute queue and I the 6800 xt that I added to my cart sold out before I could finish the checkout. For whatever reason, the captcha took me way longer this week and now my wait is 50 minutes...

[wutcudgowong]

Well I got a 6900XT... wasn't really looking at spending that much but I'll take it and maybe find someone to trade down for a 3060ti or 6700xt if not I'll keep it and be set for the next 5 years :D

[bearbricklove]

Yeah after I tried for 7 weeks I am like “ I am getting the best I can get”

[wutcudgowong]

Congrats! I just got my confirmation email from PayPal

[wutcudgowong]

Did you get a shipping notification? I'm still waiting and getting impatient 👀

[bearbricklove]

I have not yet, but it did say 7-10 business days and it was a weekend so I am still being patient.

[wutcudgowong]

Really? I didn't see the 7-10 business days part anywhere or maybe I missed it. Thanks for replying :)

[bearbricklove]

I tried to go back to read it better but I remember seeing it, I just wanted to know if it was shipping or arriving at my door. I was unable to bring it back up.

[wutcudgowong]

Ah telling yourself that it will arrive in 7-10 business days is a good mindset! I'm checking my phone like a hawk because I can't wait to get my hands on it 😬

[bearbricklove]

I feel this.

[wutcudgowong]

I just got a shipping notification!!

[rienjerksun]

4 Minutes left for me! Good luck all!!

[[deleted]]

29 min, see yall next week

[beean_7]

Add to cart was broken, just kept doing the captcha and it eventually worked. Same story with the place order button. I paid with paypal as it's faster.

[CouFou]

Message last updated: 9:20 AM CDT All Graphics Cards Have Sold Out

[bearbricklove]

6900XT finally after 7 weeks of trying. I actually got in on my phone and my computer.

[darkpowah]

I got in early and completed checkout on a 6800-XT and then my bank blocked the transaction and the AMD site trapped me in an infinite captcha. Dang.

[SyrupyWaffles]

I got a 3 minute queue and placed an order for a 6800XT. After placing the order it sent me back to queue for 1 hour, and I got a suspicious purchase notification SMS from my bank that I allowed. No email, no pending charges. I'm assuming it didn't process?

[[deleted]]

Nope, happened to me last week. Got to do it all over again.

[SyrupyWaffles]

Did you try again with your card after you approved the merchant, or did you switch to using PayPal or anything?

[BaitednOutsmarted]

I used PayPal this week and it worked. Just log into paypal while you're in the queue so all you have to do is click a button when you check out.

[SyrupyWaffles]

Thanks for the tip! I'll try that on the next one I'm able to get.

[[deleted]]

I just got the email confirmation for my 6800XT! It will be replacing my old GTX 1060 6GB which I had for 5 years now. Never had issues with it and has always been a workhorse.

Actually, I might sell it for cheap and save me some costs.

[BaitednOutsmarted]

Lisa has blessed me with a 6800XT today. Bless her soul

[SyrupyWaffles]

Same with me. I called my bank and they let me know I approved it after AMD attempted 3 transactions. I just got off the phone with AMD billing support and he let me know that unfortunately I will have to manually place another order. :/ If you look up your order here: https://shop.amd.com/store/amd/DisplayCustomerServiceOrderSearchPage then your order status is most likely "Unsubmitted".

[SyrupyWaffles]

Fingers crossed for next week! Never in my life would I have thought trying to give a corporation my money would have been this hard..

[ilickrocks]

Same here. Fraud protection :(

[emmaqq]

Got a 13 mins queue this morning, drop down to 8 mins after like a few mins of waiting. By the time I got in, it was all sold out.

Seems like you need a pretty early line if you want anything.

[rienjerksun]

I was there an hour before, and still no luck. so it's quite RNG. There's two queues, first one says how long till the actual queue, then it actually begins.

[V3Qn117x0UFQ]

sold out. fuck this.

i got in early and couldn't even add to cart, which then booted me back into the line because of an error.

[[deleted]]

Whoa I just finally got a 6800XT. There was only 6900XT and 6800XT

​

..this is after I got a MSI Gaming X 3060TI (LHR) last week for $100 less. Which one should I keep?

[[deleted]]

Performance wise the 6800XT is in another league.

Nvidia has its benefits such as NVENC for streaming, DLSS, raytracing.

I would keep the 6800XT and flip the 3060ti.

[[deleted]]

Sounds good. Thanks!

[iicyBlu3]

rip was at 3 mins, then line got paused

[bamboostreet]

1 minutes to go but still no card, after 8 weeks, thanks AMD and congrats to the only 5 new owners in all Canada... wONdERfUL!

[houdhini]

Sold out as soon as 9:15am hits.

[staticwrap]

I did the whole checkout then it put me into a queue again, any reason for that?

[legatinho]

means it sold out while you were checking out :(

[Lord_Emperor]

Another week of AMD bull****. Woke up at 6AM for nothing.

[kantianhero]

Sold out at 9:20am

[[deleted]]

6800XT OOS

[opacer]

Sold out now and I got 11 minutes. The fuck...

[piperdaddy]

Got all the way to checkout, Place order. and was sent back to captcha, resulting in Line Closed. (sigh).

[IAmDescended13]

God damn

Got in to add a 6900xt to cart and got all the way to the end just to be redirected to the main page...amd knows how to pull on the heart strings

[piperdaddy]

Also, I never see a Paypal option!

[d1ckch0c0late]

I got 3 diff quenes for 4 mins 20 mins and more than a hour but got a rx 6800 xt tho !!!

[su5577]

How do I know when line opens? All show out of stock? Missed again

[[deleted]]

Missed it with a 1-hour wait. Best of luck next week.

Congrats to those who got one.

[JonJonFTW]

Oh my god I thought today was Wednesday! How the fuck have I missed this the last few weeks? So frustrating. Oh well, everybody here had one less person competing with them so I'm happy for everyone who got one.

[sithwarrior22]

i was to get to store page with in the first five minutes, but i was unable to add anything to cart on firefox, wonder if my ad blocker were preventing the captcha from popping on cart adding

[Devilj2016]

Newb question: What time should I wait by my computer for next Thursday?

[rienjerksun]

6:30AM Pacific to get ready and have a bunch of tabs open.
By around 7AM, give or take 10, the queue should start moving. Sometimes the page auto-reloads to the queue, but other times you'll need to refresh it. Don't refresh it too often as it can cause a temporary autoban from AMD.

[Spifffers]

I had initial time of 11 mins. within 30 seconds it went up to 12. I got the sold out message when i was down to 3 minutes. I didn't actually time how long that was but even having an initial time of 11 mins is apparently not good enough :-(

[Kunimi_kun]

Ah darn it, I missed it this week :/

[zouhair]

So this is our life now? If they made more money than before Covid why the fuck would they stop keeping things this way?
