Aswel as a bit of ranting
So i've send or asked at work to order the parts and sutch and the store mailed back and forth with the guy at work for it. Now this has been done like a month ago and since they coulden't get the R9 5900 chip i realy wanted etc etc they proposed intell etc etc you know , other stuff. Anyway diden't whant that , said i'll wait untill you can get it etc etc.
Yesterday they just said let me talk to the person himself ( me ) to work things out. So i did and they explained with how things are like i've seen on the net for electronic parts and so on. Very bad as i also am sometimes techically unemployed becouse we also need parts and they get held back or takes longer.
Anyway GPU my 3080 i desired also has been going up in price for weeks. If they had orderd it before all of this i had it cheaper but now they can only sell like 2x 3070 and they are at the price as the 3080 back then plus only can give me a R9 3000 plus less ram speed as those also seem to be hard to get and the psu's also are having it rough.
This sucks big time, i've been waiting and pondering , weighing off my options and sutch and all this waiting and deciding took off a lot of time plus now money.
So pro tip in life guys, don't wait and dilly daddle ( or some other wording ) just go for it and do it, worry about after it's bad or not to your standard, you at least HAVE IT!!
My options now are like, change a few parts so i get less what i wanted but still pay the friggin price for it. Change it from amd to intell witch may be cheaper since those are probably plentyfull in stock, don't hear anything else you can't get em anyway. Still pay a ton for a lesser gpu as prices still rack up. Or just look on the net for a full pc build and buy that at a castly price i assume or meaby not since these are big companies.
Also what ticked me off whas i talked to the sales person , said she would mail the order to my guy at work for my approval and sutch with also saying that she like to know if i want the 3070 or not by tomorrow as it's first come first serve is and they sell out FAST. Either she diden't or mailed it wrongly and they guy at work isen't there the next day so am probably missing out again on that.
Plus i need to order NOW otherwhise if i do it like next week prices could be up even more....For a damn pc parts shop to be this low on stock and not even engaging in trying to reach out to customers is realy awefull. Like my guy mailed my order like last week ago and yesterday contacted them again about it. Am a patient guy and don't like to bother people about little things but honestly if you don't get behind it or like poke daily about it to them, stuff aint getting done son. I get they can't deliver as there is a shortage but it sucks they took their time to go back and forth with communication.
I think am gonna cancel and just buy a pc of the net somewhere and just get keyboard and mouse from them. Or take the same but go intell, eugh gonna have to spend some more time on that to think about, so frustrating.

Alright so they are doing their best it seems as i am going to get most parts i desired except i can't pick my GC as every card they get are like sold instantly aswel. It's still a 3080 but not an oc and not the one i picked. Hopefully i get lucky and do get an oc and if not it still will be the best out there....hopefully.
Other part is the cooling, unfortunally non of the ones i searched on the net but hopefully enough.
Bossman also revieuwed the stuff i wanted and said he whas gonna put windows 10 on it himself plus gave me advice not the get the HD witch also whas switched from a blue to a purple WD. Seems storage is also getting hit by miners.
He proposed something they use as it seems to be a hub outside my pc and like copy's the stuff i put on there instantly. I'll see what i'll do.
So now it's all orderd and i just have to wait until all the parts have arrived and put together.
