Holy ****, actual information. Thank you.
A little bit of info I just got, I asked about changing my shipping method but also asked about queue position. Was told they're not giving out queue positions but are working on solution (as we know). However they did add that I'll be waiting a 'considerable amount of time' for my order to ship, for reference, I ordered MSI Gaming X Trio at 14:05 on launch day so for any fellow Trio orderers

In that scenario, yes it has it's place, but given what a CF the 3080 launch has been, you can be almost guaranteed that the majority that are buying these, are buying them primarily to game on.
Awesome, thanks for the update. Do you know when the Vision cards are landing? I know they were added post launch, so perhaps not many of them ready to go.
asus will do everything in there power to get it to you in october
between amd on the 28th And the fact that rebates from nvidia witch is to belived to be around £45 will end if they dont get it to you in october so they could loose a order to amd or loose £45 ontp of your money i can see all compainies pushing as hard as they to get massive stocks to storesGot my palit card last night, what a beast of a card! Going to hook it up to my OLED later and give it some testing on there at 4K 120fps! It'll be worth the wait and this is coming from a 2080ti owner.
Congrats on getting your card, im excited for you i cant wait to feel that excitement as i benchmark and play some games with RTX on and ultra!!

That thing is a beast. Just the size of it lol.

I wonder what chance the rest of us have then when you ordered at that time... I got my order in for the same card @ 14:15.A little bit of info I just got, I asked about changing my shipping method but also asked about queue position.

Glad to hear this. I rang and changed my Ventus order as I ordered a bit late and was like 2000 in the que for it. Changed to a Palit card hoping for a quicker arrival. Nice to hear they are being shipped.
My only hope is that the 'considerable amount of time' comment is just a one size fits all comment they are using for anyone who asks. But I doubt it
I would tend to agree with you there. Especially given the marketing and YouTuber (LTT & MB) videos pushing 8K gaming, which then leads those thinking it would batter 4K. Just a bit of rough math alone with the cores etc, shows that the 3090 isn't going to be hugely more powerful over the 3080. The Nvidia hype train grabbed hold and lead those to think it was aimed more at gaming. Granted, there are those that always want the best and are willing to pay handsomely for it, if for relatively small gains. Were I to use one just for gaming, I would simply stick with my MSI 3080 Ventus order on OCUK, which I am unlikely to see any time soon. After seeing the results on rendering for the 3090 and the 3080 crash due to lack of VRAM in certain scenarios, for me, it allowed me to work more effectively from home than I currently do, and what I could do with the 3080. The cost is crazy, but I never could justify a Titan, but I can just about justify the 3090.
I may cancel my MSI Ventus 3080, considering from the small amount I've read on here, that the MSI is unlikely to land anytime soon and the only reason I bought it was because it said available this week.

So this "Printer function" competitor is regularly updating people through twitter and their website on deliveries and queues for cards. Apparently, from some cards that had 500 preorders, almost 250 have shipped for some of the brands. So is OCUK not as preferred in terms of card allocation? Or is this just good marketing?

Good job. That is a monster, isn't it. Nice clean set up too
Enjoy and run away from here as fast as possible!
