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

[Nickoglas]

Currently have a 32" 4k myself to be fair. I just know it must suit someone out there's use needs

I mean I’d like it for the fact my other monitor is 27” so it wouldn’t look out of place in terms of dimensions next to it. But that’s more of an OCD thing haha

Hey guys, any rough idea on how many ASUS tuf oc were sold? As I cancelled my order and looking for another card to go for.

If you don't mind the look of the Palit or KFA2 they'd be the ones' i'd go for as Palit seem to have a steady stream of cards plus their twitter said more are coming to the UK next week. KFA2 haven't shipped yet but by the looks of it don't have a heap of orders. Steer clear of EVGA and PNY as these seem to be prioritising the US market first.

A UK competitor site has created an NVIDIA 30 series status page which lists incoming shipments to them

EVGA expected 25th-29th Sept and then 30th Sept - 2nd October

MSI, Gigabyte, PNY, Palit, ASUS and Zotac between 30th September and 2nd October

Considering stuff is getting sent over by air, hopefully OCUK is getting some cards from that shipment too

Pretty useful site tbh, but still no queue position and quantities.

This is a nice touch to set people at ease a bit.

Fingers crossed. Need an evga or founders as only 2 slot will fit my case! Don’t think there’s another other true 2 slot 3080s

I wonder when ASUS will bring in TUF OCs, according the responses I'm about 160th in line.

At least they're updating their customers...just seeing that chart would put my mind at ease.

 

[roots]

the shipping update is a good move considering the flak they were receiving for their perceived price gouging & lack of queue transparancy.

According to the calculator I am position 144, ordered the Ventus at 17/09/2020 15:09.

I'm not sure anyone asked.
Good luck getting your card

Yeah not bad, I suppose we have the stickied post here, not much about upcoming shipments here though. Maybe Gibbo doesn’t want to announce in case it doesn’t turn up

Or maybe they are purposefully not being transparent, that's the issue with not giving information to customers after taking money, it makes people wonder what the motives are.

 

[Garygary]

It's going to be a salt mine in here if it reveals these cards aren't going out first come, first serve. Either that or there were WAY more Zotacs ordered than the estimates recorded.

My only hope is that I saw an order at 14:04 who said they haven't received theirs yet, and also when I enquired with customer support about swapping for another card, they said I could but as I managed to order so quickly I'd be sacrificing one of the earlier cards.

Definitely interesting to hear of some EVGA cards coming in though, I wonder what kind of stock numbers they are getting though...

Missa wants some TUF. Seriously how many cards do you think OC can get in one delivery? Does it come on container, will it 50 of each model? Will it be 1000 cards per shipment. How many bro?

I believe the purchasing guy said "Small" shipment is <50. And very small is around 10. I think they are only getting either small or very small shipments at the moment. At least thats what information we have so far.

 

[OG Don Mecca]

Ehrm I ordered at 15.35 Sunday and am 2528th in a quee. Which card you got. I went for Asus RTX 3080 TUF.

TUF OC

 

[Jeeva]

I feel like a nerd for getting that

[Mitchell1305]

Got a delivery confirmation text from Overclockers and DPD. Got excited as hell and then realised I ordered a waterblock for the 3080

not gonna lie I feel evga are going to send 1 card over and be like

 

[ixwild]

I think that's why I feel so patient about getting mine, until Cyberpunk comes along there isn't anything out there I am absolutely gasping to flex the new card on. I have a 1080ti, so it'll be a really nice jump, but it's not like it's a slouch. I was hoping to get it before the Mafia remake came out, but that was when I was naive enough to think I was actually getting one within a week or so!

Same here mate, Mafia was the game I was hoping to have it for, even researched Nvidias UK store and their shipping times and decided if I ordered on the day I would defo have it for then lol. Does seem I was more than a little delusional in hindsight

Oof, that's painful. I was going to order a waterblock, but EK support told me I should "wait for reviews" because they couldn't tell me how long the card+wb would be. Annoying, but fair - I'm already straddling the slightly bizarre "will I get my card before I see any Strix reviews" line.

Happily, it looks like I was right and the PCB is actually pretty short in comparison to the cooler.
