Fake bids though

No I am ignoring the fake bot bids and were just looking at Buy it Nows.

Cheapest AIb board I can find is one of the cheap nasty ones for £1200. Some people are obviously quite happy to sell the card they were lucky enough to buy and then just wait to buy one later and they will have one for free.

World has gone mad.

Crazy if folk are actually paying that! I'd rather buy a 2080TI for <£500 and wait a couple months

Check out this teardown.

Even the power connectors have moved to the end of the board. And the caps differ to reference. Also Alphacool have said Gigabyte (with others) aren't reference. You will need a custom waterblock.
 
Anyone else order status changes from “ new order awaiting payment”

To “ order received not yet shipped”, but has not had a confirmation email still?

yup. At this point I'm going to pay more on my phone bill than I did for the card given I've been calling all day but no one picked up. Still trying to get a shipment ETA as it said it was going to ship today when I placed the order.

Mine changed to 'Order Received - not yet shipped' this morning and I have had no email at all since 15:00 yesterday..


Also, I know OCUK are frowned upon for price changes, but in the grand scheme, I think they are not as bad as some, but still a little bit guilty:

This sums things up:

Wonder how many were sold,
I just tried to get a ps5 for one of my kids, had a email for a link to a que for another retailer, i was 15500 in the que, got to 9000 and they sold out lol,
Wonder what the backlog here at OC is currently.

Thus basically proving the "exchange rate" line is a load of old bs.
