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

Well see, the thing is. Part of the software I work on is covering order to cash and fulfillment. Generally what I've seen is that when stock arrives the user can see outstanding orders and allocate as they see fit. But the normal practice would be oldest orders first.

Assigning to the higher price orders might put bigger numbers on the book short term. But ultimately they're going to need to fulfill those orders sometime. If the customer cancels, it's just more of a negative reputation issue.. So, longer term to me at least, it doesn't make sense to allocate stock that way. But, for sure they could, if they wanted to.

Please stop with this, where did you get the proof that more expensive orders get filled first?

Yeah its essentially a fancier TUF with more RGB, actually prefer TUF Shroud vs Strix purely form an airflow perspective.

Hope the strix is genuinely binned higher so I could potentially get a really good undervolt but right now no evidence of it and we know 100% that non-OC vs OC theres no binning.

All these cards perform about the same, doesn't matter what version you get. We will have to wait for a few months down the line to get any sort of better silicon. by all the reviews it is clear that Samsung 8nm is really not the best and Nvidia had to push the crap out of them. So even with the current best silicon you won't be able to really see much difference. Atm everything is to due to how the card looks, cooling and sound.

As I said several times already: if we are allowed to complain only when we're on the verge of death, then we shouldn't be every complain about nothing and nothing would ever be improved. That's a frankly stupid mentality that only works against your interests.

Being frustrated especially since Nvidia botched this launch, I can fully understand but what's not happening is perspective.

I feel like I made a huge mistake ordering the Strix non-OC. I'm more annoyed with Asus then OCUK and NVidia combined. The lack of information about a release date is so poor. I got my order in at 14:27 and i feel I'll be one of the last to get a card.

You are almost an hour ahead of me so would be interesting to see when you get yours :p

Woah woah woah there buddy. Read what I wrote more carefully. I said I know that in many systems (including the one I actually work for), the process can be manual and the user can choose orders that get stock. I then go on to suggest it doesn't make sense to do this in the long term, because of the ill will it would earn for short term gains. So, please point out the part where I suggest they're going to do it? If anything, I'm saying they'd be quite crazy to do so.

If you're not suggesting they are or are going to do so, why even mention it? WTF?
