Yea all ok pre order and to be honest the ones in stock are single digits so pre order is best option as prevents anyone ordering something showing in stock but the website not updating in time and turning out they missed out. Whereas pre order is assume no stock but then get pleasant surprise of a shipping notification and they will be lucky people as suspect there will be 100’s If not 1000’s of people attempting to order in first few minute.

Were implementing more precautions and locking down our site more to try and ensure things run a bit better but with these levels of demand it’s hard work as even some of the more advanced sites still went down.

I appreciate the communication on all of this.

On a slightly off-topic note, will everyone who gets a 3080/3090 over the next few weeks still get the Watch Dogs code? I've noticed they're no longer listed on some people's orders but the offer is still on the main site. I know you guys hit your allocation from nvidia, but is it okay to assume as you get more, they'll go out as orders go out or what?
 
Do we have any estimations on the Aorus cards yet? I ordered one in the 17th, but I move house next month, am I right to assume I'll most likely move home before my card is shipped? In which case do I need to phone support to change delivery address?

We got 1k codes and we ain’t shipped 1k graphics yet and as MVIDIA expiry I believe is October I think the redemption date shall expire before we have shipped 1000 cards anyway but I’d like to be wrong on that.

I will ask NVIDIA about more codes again also as awaiting response but I don’t see large volumes of stock coming before the redemption period runs out. :(

Just FYI Gibbo, Ubisoft have said the game codes are valid until 30th November.

Cheers for the response. Obviously super disappointing on the expected numbers, but we can live in hope! Hopefully nvidia will extend the offer as well.

Hopefully can grab mine soon then as there's only 180 people left In my queue for the Zotac card just hope Zotac update their bios to let the card have great performance!
 
so is it only shown in the first 1000 orders or do all orders show them because I feel bad for anyone who gets one after the expiration date (this was about Gibbo's post about the watch dogs codes only just now realised I could quote)
 
I just want to know a rough ETA on the KFA2 cards as that's what I'm waiting on. They weren't in stock on Thursday according to the list Gibbo posted and not mentioned at all since as coming in soon. Though they haven't been removed from being ordered unlike the EVGA ones, so must have some comms with them?

OCUK are the only UK seller of KFA cards to my knowledge so should get all uk bound stock? Looking at some EU stores it seems they are getting them next month and had some at launch?

Not on all orders as it was removed from the products but there will be more than 1,000 orders that do show it as included, but of course many will cancel so a bit of a moving target...

So if your order confirmation email shows the watch dog promotion is it safe to say you are apart of the first 1000 cards going out?

Welp, considering I am 1300 something on the waiting list for Asus Tuf non OC it looks very unlikely that I will be getting my card anytime this year if you have yet to even ship 1k GPUs :(.

Although my confirmation email shows as me having a watchdogs code so maybe I am in the first 1000?
