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

[DELETED_231285]

I phoned yesterday and the guy was super polite, friendly and just generally awesome. Actually moved OCuk up in my opinion slightly.

Yeah my first call to them was like this. But not the last one

 

[LoadsaMoney]

He was comparing clock speeds under load. The TUF and the Strix weren't running the same game or at least the same bit in the game, so it can't be compared.

Yup, specsavers for me

For how amazing that cooler looks I'll take the hit (not that I think theres one to take), definitely the best 3080 variant imo

Its mahoosive!

EXACTLY! It looks like a 3090 without a 3090 sized hole in my bank account

 

[TimAhKin]

the guy at OC said im 55 in the que for msi gaming @14:27 so... yh XD

I'm 14:27 too xD. From the looks of it, it will be end of October, unless OCUK received a bigger than 20-30 batch of cards.

2 week delivery schedule apparently, Some heading to the uk over next 6 days, so they said on twitter

Thanks Dave

Guys what is going on with the Eagle, I keep on hearing about it. Is it any good or there just happens to be more stock?

 

[Greebo]

Its the AIB's not nvidia

Is it? How do you know that isnt all the chips Nvidia is passing over to AIBs each week?

Curious but how long will Overclockers be ripping off its customers.
You are more expensive than bricks and mortar stores.

 

[WatchTower]

Is Asus Rog worth the extra over the Tuf?

Prices are inflated everywhere, OC are just the only ones still taking pre orders so it looks like they're the only ones

 

[DTUOHY96]

Still waiting on reviews to determine that, short answer is probably not unless you're big into overclocking

 

[SGz_Eliminated]

Yeah can we stop derailing this thread with capacitor crap, there's literally a separate thread for that in particular. This thread is more focused on Stock/orders/queues/pricing etc

Well every outlet selling them keeps increasing their prices as they get each new delivery in for preorders. Even the Indian takeway place that was touting in the beginning as having all their 3090 cards listed as either £1400 and £1500 have now started changing them to £1680 etc.

Are you going to increase the power limit and fan speed to keep it cool so you can get an extra 30mhz or so of boost from it?

If so then yes.

If not, then the TUF is the best of all the cards IMO. And you still might win the lottery and get a higher overclocking TUF card than your strix card anyway.

Strix.

Thankyou!

 

[Pjb]

same... finally have one on the way

So have I but I wouldnt cancel anything with OC yet

 

[Eiji]

Very seem to be outstocking the PC only retailers for MSI cards lol

I don't see any 3080's on there when I searched.

 

[Nooblet]

I know but can't find any 3080's on their site.

same

 

[b0otneck]

Has anyone called CS for their position on the Strix OC? If so, what position and time.

 

[Walter Swanevelder]

You get the order number in the email from OC

Ah Gotcha! Not at all confusing because when you look at the Order on their website they have a different Order number scheme.
