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

Having previously visited the OcUK Warehouse, I can't see there being any truth in that - please don't start baseless rumors

Where are the baseless rumours? I’ve never ever had to pay over £800 for a pre order up front. I’ve always been charged on dispatch. Why should this be any different?
 
I'm hoping to hear something about EVGA cards this week... I figured if I write it down, it would will it into existence! That's how this works, right?!
 
Literally ordered my Strix OC 3080 around midnight last night.
Currently waiting to see what ridiculous number in the queue I am :eek:

Ordered a whole build worth of overpriced ROG based kit elsewhere slightly afterwards which has a fair few parts that are OOS including the case and motherboard.
Hopefully all this stock situation gets resolved and I get something built eventually.

My G752VS Laptop (6700hq, 16GB DDR4, GTX 1070) has started hard crashing frequently so this evening I'm reverting back to my old university budget build (i5 2500K @ 4.5Ghz, 16GB DDR Corsair Vengeance DDR3, EVGA 970).

Fun times!

Yet you did pay upfront for a pre order but have now decided you don't want to pay upfront. Fair enough.

Nope, wrong actually. When I placed the order I thought I was placing an order to purchase the item. Unlike some I didn’t know to look at a post hidden in a forum which stated what cards were in stock. That’s where my problem is. If I would have known before I ordered that I was paying up front for something that wasn’t out for a month I would have tried elsewhere. Now I’m stuck and don’t really have an option since it’s out of stock everywhere

Lesson learned for the 5080 at least

This made my toes curl....

"Although we may not currently have the stock available to fulfill every order immediately, we are in the best possible position to acquire it before every other UK retailer. This means the only place to preorder right now is at Overclockers UK!"

Not to mention this Gem - "We are receiving and shipping cards on a daily basis as they arrive from the various manufacturers." - taken from here - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/nvidia-30-series-status

If they are receiving and shipping daily, why isn't that being reported?

Pretty much, every update we've got since last week has TUF OCs coming in. Wish I was a queue jumper now

Did they get the last batch of TUF OCs in ? I didn’t see anyone say they had got any. If not this batch may be the previous batch we thought they had got ?
Hoping they get some non ocs this week.
I’ve seen people say they are prioritising the OC version. Is this a just a rumour as I’ve seen nothing official about it ?

You must be near the front to recieve one then as it sounds like you got your order in straight away before the site went down. What number are you in the queue?

I'm concerned with the lack of chatter regarding this palit shipment on Gibbos forum. Is it an indication that the ship ended up capsizing or perhaps the shipment was ordered from another UK company?

Wouldn't be concerned in the slightest. They got Palit in last week and there's nothing about it in that thread.
