[2/13 Update]

Thank you for everyone who entered the raffle. Winners will be announced & contacted tomorrow Friday, 2/14.

 

Good news for all of you hoping for a fair shot at buying a 5080 GPU! We’re holding a raffle, and winners get to buy 1 of 20. You can enter in one of our stores from February 5th through 13th and we’ll announce winners on the 14th. Maybe just in time to make it a really special Valentine’s Day for your sweetheart, but YMMV on that. (We’re waiting for a confirmed ETA on another supply batch and hope to do a second raffle for more GPUs soon after this one.)
