149 in queue at 15:29 with a Zotac, feel gutted as my payment was declined at 14:30 and none of the retailers would work for another hour... Oh well at least I picked a card 3% slower than FE (big deal), which means a lot of pedantic people are cancelling their orders. By my calculations I should get mine on the 4th (Staying humble) small shipment.

It could be worse, I have an MSI pre-order (15:19 before I could checkout) and approx 481 in the queue! That is one hell of a popular card!

To top if off, I'm going to struggle to fit it in my case as-is as the Water cooling reservoir is right in the way!.. I've pre-ordered a TUF OC as well (1021 in the queue :eek I didn't order until Friday).. If stock starts arriving I can always sell on the MSI (at cost) on here and await the TUF, but if it looks like after Xmas delivery for them I may hold off, the Strix OC looks like a beast, it might be bordering on 3090 performance.

I sold my 2080ti on eBay, working perfectly, water-cooled including the original fans, box etc. Showed a video of it working in the description etc. etc. Sent well packed. Winning bidder received it last week and now claims it is faulty. He told me he would put the stock fans back on and I feel he's screwed it up. Saying there is no power and it was like that when he received it. Trouble is, I'm a business seller and have to accept returns within 14 days. So, unfortunately, I'm both £520 + fees, down and minus a 2080ti too. There is one saving grace, is that it is still guaranteed by EVGA. Do any of you know how forgiving EVGA is with regards to water cooling and placing the stock fans back on for an RMA repair? Will they decline or are they pretty good about these things.

They are great with waterblocks on or off. The only issue you may have is if he damaged the card fitting/removing the waterblock then it wont be covered by warranty,.
 
Ordered a Gigabyte Gaming OC at 14:33 on the 17th. The queue calculator estimated that I was around 32 in order for the card.

My order status turned to "Order Shipped or ready to collect" roughly 20 minutes ago. Seems like OC may have received a small batch of gigabyte gaming OC cards today (when I ordered, the ETA was in fact 21st September on the site which also gives me hope).

Haven't received an email yet about my delivery so I am tempering my excitement, but this may give gigabyte gaming OC purchasers some hope!

You need to know how many cards are coming in, if the one you've ordered, is only coming in at like 2 cards a week, if you are like a thousand and something in the queue, you've got a helluva wait.

Even if cards are coming in at say 10 a week you're still talking 3 months if you're that far back
