subscribe to newegg on twitter and setup push alerts. They'll notify you before a drop.
I added all combos and all individuals cards to two separate wishlists. When you select your wishlist all potential combos will show and if you get lucky one at least will stick in your cart. They drop almost on the exact second that newegg says they will so be ready to F5 rapidly. Also have your phone with the newegg by your side doing the same thing. Mine had my PC showing no items available, but phone did. I added it to phone and refreshed cart on my PC and the card was there. I've heard a rumor this is what newegg is looking for to help keep cards out of the carts of Bots.
Make sure you have all your newegg account info entered in advance including credit card.
I got lucky on mine and it was a combo drop and the Suprim stuck...ended up bundling with just a VGA adapter they credited back so I didn't have to pay for a legit combo, just the card.
