Well after much thinking over the weekend - I've cancelled my ASUS TUF non OC order this morning. I've decided to drop down to the 3080 and order the new LG 4k 27GN950-B monitor as well. Going with the gigabyte Aorus Xtreme 3080 model which realistically will do for my needs - I use Davinci Resolve 16 a lot but I am only doing 4k video projects and some adobe work so I'll be OK with a drop down. The very helpful OC chap this morning confirmed to me about 1700 odd awaiting the ASUS TUF Non OC 3080 model with 700+ also waiting for the OC model. Good luck to everyone still queueing and I'll still follow the updates and owners thread to see happy installs!
Given that the RTX3080 strix was 2 weeks delayed after launch I believe the 3090 will be the same. So the first peoplle to get a 3090 Strix will be around 8 October
I quizzed a guy on eBay who was selling a ROG Strix 3090 when he was getting it and he emailed me a scan of his order from Scan, which confirmed an estimated despatch date of 5th October. That seems to confirm that will be the day everyone is getting stock, so some of us at least should be getting our Strix cards on the 6th. Here's the exact wording from the scan:
Re: Order Status Update
Hi,
Thank you for your order from Scan.
Please regard this email as an update on the progress of your pre-order.
We estimate that your order will despatch on Mon 5 Oct
Your pre-ordered item:
LN110488 - ASUS NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 24GB ROG OC Strix Ampere Graphics Card (ETA: Mon 5 Oct)
I’ve had the same email from scan.
Taking it with a massive pinch of salt personally.
If their ETA’s for the 3300x I ordered back in august are anything to go by![]()
Yeah me too! Scan have a 3080/90 series update link at the top of their homepage, tells you when they’re expecting deliveries from each of the board manufactures.Fair play. I guess we'll see. Just clutching at whatever I can find out, really.
Dunno if you saw this

im sure you wont go to those lengths to get an OC but interesting to see.

At least they’ve stopped taking orders.I think that competitor will have a few angry people if their order is not shipped on that date in oct. For all the flack that OC are taking right now - if the stock flow is as tricky as people are making it out to be at least they are not locking in a date that may potentially slip.
My order email says the 25th....but I had an update email later that evening.Mine said 25th September, even though their delivery calendar states they won't get their first batch until 30th at the earliest lol.

I presume that order status is only based on the fact the item was ordered with next day delivery.
