Well at least if OCUK go bust soon I'll rest comfortably knowing Gibbo will be inspected like a dog at crufts by HMRC.

Jokes aside, anyone familiar with consumer rights if OCUK does fold?

Looks like the Asus TUF should be ok - Jay said, and I also had a quick look myself at images of the card, it actually uses the more expensive capacitors for all of them, so shouldn't have the stability issues (assuming that's definitely what the problem is)

Where did you see these images? I pre-ordered the Strix OC so figured if the TUF is running all 6 as the more expensive ones then surely the Strix will too. But I went and looked up images for TUF and Strix, I saw the black cheaper ones on both of them.
 
This thread is beautiful, it's like 30 new users complaining about a company not giving queue positions on a paper launch product. What other company is going to sit down and give you a queue position on a gpu?

this calculator is rubbish, it started showing a lower position than it is now looks like they haven't received any card for a week

What part of the UNOFFICIAL calculator do you not understand?
It's based on user submitted data. Assumes the data that is not submitted. Doesn't factor cancellations or shipped cards. How could it? It wasn't made by OCUK!
Jesus you'd think after 372 pages people would get it by now...

As long as it has two of the more expensive ones it meets spec

Literally just do a Google image search for it, and look at one of the images showing the back of the card. You can see the six arrays of the more expensive caps rather than the single cheaper black ones on the back of the GPU.

All the press images have them, but cards in the field appear to have mixed condition. Chances are nobody is building the old designs now. If we as consumers know about this issue, you can be sure the people designing and building these cards also know and won't be risking warrantee bill if there's a known solution.

Well I think paying by either Amazon pay or PayPal get u covered pretty safely. Never had to ask for money back through Amazon pay but knowing how well Amazon handle all returns etc I'm certain there would be no issue for prompt refund
 
If the KFA card has the cheaper caps and had an issue I will be sending it back (when I finally get it) not putting it on water for it to not even be able to boost or overclock. F that it's a waste of money

I haven't had need of this forum since deciding which q6600 revision I should buy..But since they are restricting their updates to here rather than even a courtesy email on status I'll add my own thoughts to masses of displeased customers, old and new.

Either way, they are filling their hamster pouches with cash and have hibernated for the weekend.
