ARCHIVE - *** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 SERIES STOCK SITUATION *** - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION

[Viirus]

Any chance the Gigabyte Vision can be added to the unofficial queue?

God knows when we’ll see them

 

[DelBoyJamie]

So in @Gibbo latest update he's specified 30pc, I'm guessing the NDA on stock/inventory has lifted.

Could you confirm?

Will be interesting to see if these 30pcs are the original 5+1 caps and MLC or the newer 4+2 caps and mlc

To be honest it wont matter which retailer you ordered with, with the only cards coming in via air freight and the national holidays next week, I have seen it posted from many sources that these cards wont arrive in quantity until the end of October.

By quantity i mean retailers getting more than 100 of a particular card.

So I am working on the basis that unless you got one that was in stock on launch day or you are very high up in the queue so the odd dribs and drabs coming in over the next few weeks, dont expect your card until the end of October.

Gibbos said, depending on how many was ordered of each model, anybody ordering after 4pm wont perhaps see their card until November.

Even Scan said they pulled their pre orders once they got to the end of November delivery dates.

EVGA are unlikely to even start delivering any cards until November to the UK.

Just sit and wait. Or change your order to an unpopular card like Palit.

I banged £900 on the Aorus Xtreme in the vague hope: a) it would be worth it (unlikely) and b) it would come sooner. (Also unlikely)

at this stage I’m praying for F.E

I think I'm just not going to bother ordering anything until I know when I'm getting it. It's why I didn't order at the start because this was a huge clusterf***. I have a WC system and as long as there's an EK block for it and the card isn't terrible, then I don't even care which one I get. Which is even more frustrating as if there was some info on what cards would ship 'sooner' in relation to stock/demand then I'd get one of them.

@Gibbo no update about queue system? Even just saying it's coming along, your still doing it or not bothering now. I was told in email on web ticket last week we would have it by the weekend.
Cheers bro.

Really curious what happened to the Strixs

 

[Thancred]

Any update on the Strix 3080 OC?

 

[Del-Dredd]

Its not a guess.

Most psu's use 8awg wiring as its cheaper.
8awg is rated for 24amps for power distribution

300w over 1 cable is 25 amps

If they were to use the 6awg it would be fine as that is rated for 37 amps

May use 8AWG inside PSU but highly unlikely from PSU to Card as the conductor should be 3.26mm diameter, you would not be able to easily route that.
Hence why they use thinner flexible wire in multiple parallel paths.

It would seem ASUS spotted an issue with the STrix, pulled them all, redesigned the cards and started remaking them putting a week so so delay in dispatch.

30 MSI due in and could be well over 2500+ pre-orders for them. In for a long wait lads...

It's a paper launch no matter what way you look at it. Even if there was only half the demand you'd still be waiting months for one.

 

[sonnytbh]

Typical, 30 cards coming in and on the unofficial calc, I am 39th!

 

[james2594]

Good luck to anyone that gets a card tommorrow

 

[MrsMops]

On hold for refund. Best of luck to those with a stronger stomach for poor communication.

Could be you, some people could have already received theres or cancelled, the queue doesn't count for that

I'm 43rd Maybe an outside chance we both get ours.

Having said that, I might want to wait for the next batch if they have the updated capacitor config.

There wasn’t any kind of recall on the Strix

 

[Rambojazdude]

If you used paypal can you just cancel it through paypal instead of messing about being on hold for a week?

 

[cadmunkey]

Gigabyte dont seem to be interested in trying to keep that original "due 23rd Sep" that was there on the page when ordering. OCUK can't have just plucked that date out of thin air.....can they?
