I'm glad people aren't smart enough to find the unofficial queue calculator because it saves me time having to look for it myself because for some reason I haven't bookmarked it yet.
 
Something, ANYTHING, is better than nothing my friend. From an outside perspective it just looks like OC are taking money hand over fist for preorders and staying silent without giving people any real meaningful updates on stock.

Even if OC came out tomorrow and said "Look, we have no idea when stock is coming in, that's the truth, we have been in contact with vendors and it could be anywhere between now and next year, we really have no idea" then at the very least people will know what to prepare for, it just seems like they won't say that because it will obviously stop people preordering when they don't have any real hope to hold on to.

The truth is, once someone has preordered and stock refills remain in limbo and the small chance remains that they may still get one this year, people stay hopeful and keep their orders locked in which means OC have money in their bank through little more than the fear people have of not getting one before christmas.

Doesn't feel right to me.
He literally has said that. :/

And OC are keeping us updated with the little information they are being given far better than people who ordered off the other sites are being updated.

It's right there at the top of the graphics cards forum, it's stickied!
 
Ehrm it does not work and it says in calculator that order number starts with 50, my starts with 40.

From the link: The order number is in the format of 58XXXXX and can be found in your email from Overclockers. It is not the same as the online order number that starts with "OC".
 
Well, my Gigabyte pre-order (ordered elsewhere) should have arrived at retailer on 21st Sep, but has been delayed without-date. I am tempted to skip the 30x0/6x00-generation and wait for an XBOX Series X and PS5 instead.
 
Come across this, had a chuckle :D

Anyone wondering about Palit cards, according to Palit support, there will be a shipment of GamingPro and OC models arriving in the UK next week. They didn't mention if OCUK was included as a recipient but it's understandable as I explicitly told them I was a consumer so that was likely sensitive info to just randomly tell people when and where specific shipments are going, but I'm definitely praying OCUK will be receiving some of this shipment. And in their words "it's not a large batch". I didn't want to bother them any further than I already have so I didn't ask them to clarify what that means in terms of numbers but I hope it means I can get the Pro OC by next week.

And as requested, I have tagged you in: @Raheem when I received word.

Under the assumption that OCUK will be receiving some of the OC shipment too, I don't think I'll be using an intermediary GPU and I'll stick with my HD graphics for now.
I did and my order was 16:35 and I picked it up yesterday. There was someone else here who also ordered Palic Gaming non-OC at 16:37 and his was also shipped last night.

Thanks both - that's really encouraging news!
