Everyone talking about Strix supply but where's the Gigabyte Gaming OC's, at least for OCUK this card has a relatively small queue and was/should have been available from launch. I haven't checked everywhere else but I don't know why it'd be vastly different, I would have thought cards with less demand would fill out the orders quicker than ones like TUF that has a queue of thousands.

Asus on the ball quicker than Gigabyte is at this point in time. Palit seems the most on the ball...

ASUS is giving preference to fill out TUF OC before TUF
 
I can only assume some have shipped because my position is 18 and I ordered at 15:13 over an hour after launch. But perhaps not, maybe that queue was even quieter than the unofficial calculator made out plus cancellations. Unofficial had me at 78. I would have some have shipped in nearly three weeks but I have no way to tell. Stock thread mentions Gigabyte cards but doesn't specify variant so I can only assume both, the Eagle queue is much much bigger.

More reviews for the Strix OC are popping up and, according to Reddit, someone has had theirs ship from another UK retailer. Seems like the Strix OC queue might start moving in the next day or so.

Is it just me or these reviews not making the card look that good for the money?

They use the best bin parts for the Xtream and I suspect the yields and supply for the quality they need to justify £250 more than msrp just aren't available yet.

Currently number 26 in the queue for the KFA2 3080 SG. Thought I made a good decision on going for the lesser known brand but I haven't seen this card for sale anywhere else. Tried contacting KFA2 to see if any shipments had been made to the UK yet but no response. Just hoping I can get an update soon. Sold my current card so I could pay for the purchase and now relying on onboard graphics. Probably not the best decision. Has anyone heard anything about those cards yet?

I have an Inno 3d on order, and am in a similar position. I believe OCUK are importing these directly on a slow boat from China as the cost of airfreighting them would eat into margins. That unfortunately means waiting the 6 weeks it takes from whenever the ship set off with the cards, and OCUK aren't telling. My money now is mid November rather than the 31st October they originally advised.
 
In the queue for one of the less popular cards, pny 3080 . Looking through stock update messages there does not appear to be a single pny card shipped.

@Gibbo is this the case? Would be good to know if OC are expecting any of these cards soon.
Realise everyone wants to know when various card lines might arrive, but for card manufacturers where no cards have shipped at all it would be good to get a sit rep.
 
Anyone heard about Aorus 3080 Master coming in and being shipped out? they were released Friday. Just trying to gauge how long the Xtremes lead time is after release, queue pos. No.9 :)

A reputable company wouldn't be selling a product at LAUNCH that requires such high binning requirements, especially when a chip maker only gives you 6 weeks notice to release date. This is something that should have been released a couple of months after first launch. Ironically this is exactly what is now likely to happen. They now have a situation where they can't provide the product as described and much later than announced. ****** off customers have long memories, I know I've switched from ASUS after over a decade of buying their products because of their abismal software support for products that are only a couple of years old. And the ones that they do support tend to be buggy as hell. Logitech didn't secretly buy ASUS by any chance did they, their software is the worst in the tech world now, all looks and no brains.
 
Hi all,

first time posting. Literally just scrambled the money together to buy a TUF (not oc) and got an email confirmation for the order.

Any idea when should i see my position in the queue?
Am i kidding myself hoping that I will have this card prior to cyberpunk 2077 release? (44 days).

Thanks

I ordered my GPU within the hour on launch day for a Zotac card and I'm still waiting. The queue on those TUF cards must be huge by now.

Don’t even worry about that, it will be above 1400 and based on what I have seen you will be super lucky to get anything in November. More realistically you are looking at next year unless something changes. Like a huge shipment arrives or something.
