ARCHIVE - *** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 SERIES STOCK SITUATION *** - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION

Guys just to let you know below info is from 6 months ago then no surprise ;). If they would release end of this year or start new year we would avoid this nonsense with boting ;)

"There are still folks out there who believe we might just have witnessed the initial revelation of next-gen consumer graphics cards – likely based on some past nuggets from the rumor mill – at the conference. However, it was always the likelihood that GTC might see a heavyweight (high-performance computing and data center) GPU launch, and probably some kind of in-depth architecture discussion.

Which would certainly have been interesting stuff, but not a new RTX 3080. That said, we obviously don’t know for sure exactly what announcements were planned by Nvidia, and there might just have been a hint of something on the consumer side.

Whatever’s in the pipeline, we are going to have to wait for it now. Obviously it’s understandable that Nvidia wants to be cautious here, and measures like Nvidia’s staff working from home – and potential supply chain disruption from coronavirus – may well have an impact on future product launches.

That could, of course, go for Nvidia’s entire roadmap for 2020. It was certainly expected that Nvidia will launch new consumer cards this year, and recent speculation has pointed to the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti being unleashed before 2020 is out (with an up to 40% speed bump over its predecessor). But that situation could well change with all this ongoing disruption (presuming it was true in the first place).

Given all this, the other question is whether AMD will be looking at similar delays with its incoming GPUs. As we recently heard, Big Navi (next-gen RDNA 2) graphics cards are scheduled for release at the end of 2020, although you may recall that previous rumors indicated that they might arrive much sooner in the year.

With the specter of supply chain and broader economic disruption looming large, however, AMD could potentially now be looking at 2021 for the launch of its next consumer GPUs.

So the prospect for PC gamers is that we might not see the next generation of graphics cards from either firm until 2021, although all this remains conjecture, of course."
 
This wont really help anyone, but i'm still running a 2600k and 980TI so i *need* to upgrade my CPU at the same time, i've got 11 years out of that CPU and a good while out of the 980. My plan is to wait for Zen3 CPU wise, i'm 2k plus in the queue for a 3080 TUF. Really reconsidering a lot of my choices now, but it's a big stick or twist thing.
 
Any info about when the ichill X4s are shipping?
I emailed the EU email address for inno3D and they gave this short but sharp response,
Hi,

Thank you for your interest in INNO3D product.

Please contact them(OCUK) directly for availability as we do not provide relevant info regarding this.
 
I got a Zotac, the order was completed at 2:04PM and the tracker says I'm number 4 in the queue, here's hoping I'll get it soon.
Not sure I place much trust in tracker as someone at position 13 got theirs yesterday whilst Im right behind you at 5
 
As far as EVGA goes, there isn't much Gibbo can say until they decide to answer.

This is why unlike almost all the other cards, you cannot currently place even a pre-order with OCUK for an EVGA 3080.

Also it isn't that EVGA are ignoring the UK, they are currently ignoring every market outside of the USA as far as we can tell from EVGA rep tweets.

What happens to those customers who have already bought an EVGA card, with regard warranties within Europe?
 
I gave up. I have cancelled my order with OCUK and purchased off ebay. Sorry guys. I need it sooner rather than later.

At least whoever ordered EVGA might get their card on 13th of December instead of the 14th...

Sorry OCUK, really would have preferred doing through yourselves.

You paid more than you should have then
 
EVGA announced on twitter yesterday saying millions of cards available starting this week and would be distributed to all retailers.

Did they? I must have missed that. Got a link please? I did see the one that said 1000s would be arriving next week to America only.

Hard to know exactly what's meant by "on the way", but it's better than nothing...

On their way could mean getting put on a boat with 6 weeks until they get distributed.,
 
Are you sure you didn’t incorrectly enter your number?
I’ve gone through the programme around 5 or 6 times at this point to see how consistent it is, I started off around 1240~ and today it says I’m 1142 so it’s what I’d say is within error margins.....:D
Very sure, I ran it multiple times, several versions of it infact. It's consistent alright, just consistently placing me over 1000 behind you in the queue :( It may not mean much though, we really don't know how OcUK are approaching this yet, well unless I have missed something this morning which is a strong possibility as I haven't had a chance to catch up yet.
 
A lot. £300 over retail. But that's what you pay when you're an impatient moron like me :)

And yes directly off of a robot. He works at skynet, and had a funny metallic voice.
 
From observation the order number is linked to the time of payment. I have an order time of 14:57 and payment confirmation 4 minutes later. My order number is higher than the person who has an order time after me. Their payment confirmation is before mine too
