    Is the P870 still available with 9900K and RTX2080? It seems like unobtainium in Europe at least.
    I went through a couple of resellers and none of them has anything better than the 775.

    For USA, HIDevolution, I bought my p870tm1-g from them, great guys and company. You get your moneys worth here.
    In Europe, try reaching out to NovaCustom. I've bought some replacement parts from there in the past. And Wessel, is a helpful guy. Not sure if he offers Prema bios with his machines.

    Only downside when ordering from USA is the import tax.

    USA import is not an option, due to import tax. It would go over €5k with tax and would be a nightmare to RMA.
    I've sent Wessel a mesage but he doesn't have the P870 anymore, says they're EOL.

    You can try and scout the various EU sites listed here, and see if any offer the P870TM1.
    Or drop a post in the "ask the resellers thread". The P870TM1 is EOL, but that doesn't stop us, people like Prema keep the torch lit. :)

    Yep officially EOL due to the 20xx series not supporting SLI.

    Such a shame, from what I've seen this is by far the coolest 9900K laptop and could be considered relatively quiet for the performance it has.

    At the same time it's more expensive than the single slot machine and a lot larger/heavier.

    They should keep the 870 around though. Even with on card, there is a market for it.

    There's a market for anything, the question is the size and cost of support.

    It's available, just need to ask the right people/right business etc. Not so sure about EUROPE, but some of us ship world wide.
