To those who picked up a FE from Nvidia this morning, have you had shipping details yet?

 

[neikosr0x]

Rip. I'm like 200+ in that queue so it's gonna be a long wait if it's only 50 cards or so each week, and it hasnt even started yet.

Regretting buying it now and would've just gone for Evga in that case. Only reason I went for MSI was because it said "available 18th Sept" whereas Evga said pre order.

Same boat... Only because it said Due 18th

I ordered the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3080 Eagle OC 10GB GDDR6X PCI-Express Graphics Card at 15.11pm, tried to order from 14.00hrs but page kept freezing, according to the page I am no 207 in the queue so am unsure when I will get mine, I'll check every day though.

Your origin story is very similar to mine, I ordered the Asus Strix OC though, but same as you I was trying from 14:00 but only managed to finally place one at 15:24. Not helped by Natwest putting a block on my card when I did finally get through just after 3pm.. But oh well, can't be helped

same as you guys actually.... tried ordering from 2 till 4pm. by the time the site finished crashing and i was able to go to checkout i realised the price changed. so i called up manually placed my order...they honoured original price too, not the inflated one around 4:30/5pm and my order number is wayyy before others who ordered at like 2pm, i guess it was due to the system being clogged up!

Lucky you, I'm 963 in the queue, Ordered at 9.35pm. I'm not confident of getting it this year tbh, constantly checking stock for both 3980's and 3090's on other sites, except eBay

I haven't heard a thing about when the ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 3080 OC might be coming in, my friends approx. 24 in the queue and I am 47 ish, and we are wondering when we might see our cards. What sort of amount are they talking when they say 'We have a few TUF cards arriving tomorrow' for example? Literally a few i.e. 4 or 5, or do they mean higher numbers but relative to the orders waiting to be filled it is a few? Information for all of us waiting would be amazing at this point, even 'All we know is this, but it's not much' type of info

Don't suppose any of you have tried getting your shipping method changed on your order? I've left a question in the CS forum about it. Last time I used their DHL shipping the label didn't include the mobile number so I might switch to DPD if it wont mess up my spot in the queue

Is this it then? It's been a week. And another card has launched, in the meantime we don't know anything from OCUK, our individual brands or Nvidia.
One Week and we don't know our place in the queue, what's happening about deliveries or expectations or what conversations are being had, what OCUK are actually trying to do other than "their best" and no details.

And another card has launched in the meantime.

Is anyone else's patience slowly souring as the most we hear is that scraps of X card have been shipped (a meaningless piece of information to anyone not receiving that information through an email already) and seeing that other companies have schedules and are at the least communicating their plans.

Forgive me but we should not have to be begging for information like this.

It has been a whole week and we are still begging to know what's happening with our £4.5million worth of orders.

I think this is fair, i think on the day stuff happened some that is abit suspect (price changes but not delivery dates) but there was a lot going on.

Now saying this the fact a week has rolled by and we dont even have a firm grasp of what year we will get our card's in does start to get abit more quesitonable?

I think it is fair to say we should have some form of an answer by now and while the occasional update about a smol amount of stock leaving is good news without any concrete or firm answers it does make it hard to work out.

i agree the lack of updates is scary. And should be getting done on individual customer basis, not sticking a lazy post that a few cards are arriving on a forum nobody even see's

 

[TotalWarGeek]

yeh ive been 3rd in line since Friday the 18th... no news yet. :-\

How do you know you're third? What time did you order?

 

[Lamy]

05:30.

So I suppose, to be safe, we have to set a 5:25 alarm every Thursday.

Load of rubbish

I know its to keep customers happy but why on earth do retailers say " we are only getting 3 or 4 shipped in " surely that would frustrate folk more than settle their nerves.

 

[Flake87]

Might be a naive question here, but who is making or rather stuffing the PCBs for these cards? Wouldn't surprise me if it was Foxconn. Some are using 'reference' cards, some such as the FE are not.

Are there a set of different PCBs used by all vendors or do some have their own made and stuffed for them by other companies.

I'm trying to make some sense of a knot of third or even fourth parties.

its called crowd control, they give little updates so not be mobbed with emails and messages asking where the stuff they have paid for is. If they said they had a 100 coming in they should get emails upon emails to them asking

i just want to know how long i will be waiting, if im going to be waiting a month, im can cancel, wait for big navi, and use the money for the ryzen 4th gen cpu and then buy the gpu once we have more info/stock, or if im only waiting till next week, then i wont cancel, but right now, its getting close to the end of the month and bills time, im going to be selling my 2nd pc with my current 1080 in once my 3080 is shipped to help cover costs, but not knowing means i cant do this as i may be without a pc if i do. its a bit frustrating,

 

[TheBB88]

How do you know you're third? What time did you order?

the estimated que... why does people say what time did i order? surely its going off order number? and my order number lower than most... 58601**
