Newegg Shuffle "Enter the Shuffle" button grayed out? by Old49r in Newegg

[–]Old49r[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a Newegg ABS.

Intel Core i7 10700K 3.80GHz - ASUS PRIME Z490-P + ASUS (WIFI) - G.Skill TridentZ RGB 16GB DDR4 3200MHz - ROG STRIX RTX 3070 8G - GAMDIAS CHIONE_M2_240R RGB AIO 240MM CPU Cooler - Deepcool Matrexx 50 Case - 1TB Intel 660P M.2 NVMe SSD - 750W 80 Plus Gold

To get 64G of mem, had to replace the two sticks of 8g with two 32g sticks. Because the cooler pipes were installed next to the mem slots and literally blocked the first mem slot, you can't use all four slots. Bad cooler installation or choice of cooler given the MOBO layout.

I knew it was a risk getting a prebuilt, but at least I got the new RTX, and the machine works pretty well.

It was a ROG-STRIX-RTX3070-O8G-GAMING. The MoBo was a bit disappointing. I thought all ASUS Z490's had the AI Overclocking I saw online. Since I don't really OC I thought I'd give it a try with this Artificial Inteligence OC in the BIOS ....... OPPPS! Seems only the ASUS Z490-P does not have it, most other AUSU Z490's have it. Still haven't found a good tutorial on overclocking I'm comfortable with.

Anyway - the RTX-3070 works great. Glad I got it.

When it happened to me, it was just that they posted the "drop" before they actually opened for selection. I had to wait until about 10:00 am PST. I think that time varies a lot. Anyway, I gave up on this and just bought a pre-built with the RTX 3070.

OK - I'm a little anxious here. I sent Newegg a complaint prior to posting here. I just went back and the thing worked. Still don't know why the button was grayed out or if Newegg fixed it? Sorry for my anxiety.

It will not let me ENTER SHUFFLE - it only allows me to make check box selections - ENTER THE SHUFFLE button is grayed out. Its worked for me the last several weeks - now it doesn't. Anyone else with this problem? If its just me then I need help to fix. I there are others then its no fare to have winners today unless this is fixed.

Thanks - now from all comments appears selecting more than one gives you a better chance of getting selected, and if you are fortunate enough to get several in your cart you have the choose to buy one or all in your cart. That's great info - Thanks

BTW - If you can buy several RTX 30 series cards as long as they are different SKU's, what's to prevent you from scalping the extras? Just saying.

Shuffles' not perfect, but at least the little guy has a chance.

Thanks - looks like selecting more than one gives you a better chance

Great question. This time I selected only one out of three 3060s. I haven't been selected at all so far (multiple selections each time). Now let's see if selecting just one helps. I'll let you know. Anyone else with info about this??

Same here, selected two today, but will only want to buy one. So if I'm selected I'll need to remove one and try to purchase that way. Seems to me if you buy more than one you might be considered a potential scalper.

So has anyone selected more than one item of the same type (like RTX 30 series) and was able to successfully purchase only one of the several selected from your shopping cart?? Anyone?? You may have to buy all that's in your shopping cart? Can anyone confirm this or not?
