The thing that's strange is it's happening to all brands not just a select few. All of them use the same drivers from Nvidia. Let's hope things get sorted out. I'm actually more mad about not having information on shipments etc.

Yup if its happening on all cards including NV's FE then caps are not the MAIN problem ccould add to it.
I preffer to listen to guy that knows thing ot 2 about PARTS not juzt looking on the visual side of them hehe.

Really thinking about pulling Palit order now.
What's the point in buying a £700 gfx card if they're going to gimp it with a bios update.

Yes and no. Yes they're fine at 1710MHz but Nvidia's GPU Boost likes to take them to the power limit which is causing the crashes.

Possibly because it will cause a wave of cancellations. :)

Probably more to do with how power hungry these gpu's are. I'd say GPU boost is possibly set too aggressive to give the impression these cards are faster than they probably should be.

Well played Asus and EVGA, well played.

My view is if the card (I ordered a Gigabyte Gaming OC) matches the FE in performance and boosts the same or above what it says on the box then I'll be happy but if I have to go below that or if it performs worse than the FE card then I'll send it back. As long as they deliver on what was marketed then fair game.

Just out of Curiosity, Has anyone heard anything from OC about Inno3D ichillx3 3080 cards yet? i know it's asia favoured so i was just curious what i should do in that sector.

OCUK have said absolutely nothing, Inno3D however have said OcUK will be getting some soon. Hopefully that means they are being airfreighted as the prices went up by £50 in the past few days but who knows what any of this means as a customer/consumer you're not meant to know you just have to wait for reliable info and trust that OcUK are doing everything they can. You might also want to keep an eye on Caseking.de for info too

I for one think PSU could play massive role. Not talking POWER rating more of an quality of delivered power. Till I get one card and start torture testing myself. Cause wont be playing non games on it much due to health ill see how it is with Me hehehe. I think 1200w platinum superflower with fantastic voltage characteristic should cut it.

I've just edited my post. Someone on here around 12 last night posted a pic of them getting their non OC Palit to 2200MHz stable for synthetic tests.
Palit don't have the expensive cap array so I think this might throw that theory out the window.

So if this is the case, then we actually have zero idea and the whole unofficial queue is completely wrong... R.I.P. Order time seems to indicate when your order was placed no? Rather than when the payment was confirmed? Because the money was held as a pending charge on my card for a while until they finally processed it and withdrew it. So one could argue that they actually took payment much sooner than the payment confirmation email. Guess only the official queue will answer this.

Honestly, the calculator also uses a guess for total number of orders to give you your queue position, based on the data in the spreadsheet that has been generated. OC's customer service seems to be giving a number of 1800ish for the TUF non-OC orders when asked, but the spreadsheet guesses 2700, so the calculations are likely massively overestimating. It also doesn't take into account any cards with purchase profiles that don't match the overall trend (like the TUF cards, which were slow at first, I assume due to previous generations having subpar cooling decisions, but a few hours in rocketed up as the first round of good review came in), and massively overestimates anyone who ordered more than a few days after the initial release (because it assumes all orders are 30 series GPUs, and while that was likely true when the site was broken, the further we get from release, the more orders that weren't increase the order number).

I've plotted some graphs that take the spreadsheet data and
  1. recalculate the numbers to match the 1800 TUF non-OC number that someone earlier in the tread was told by overclockers
  2. calculate based on a percentage that were a particular card at the time of the order, rather than the overall percentage, which hopefully increases accuracy a little for some of the less typical cards
Its still likely fairly inaccurate, but it does allow you to match time to possible order amounts, and provide a visual of what distance through the queue you might be (and I think with 2500+ orders logged to the spreadsheet now we likely get ratios and order rates fairly accurate, just not the actual numbers).
