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

[Nicko32]

Well OC do state on their 3000 series FAQ that they are receiving and sending cards everyday, whether that's true, I do not know. Competitor stock seems to be way ahead of OC.

 

[joedeath332]

There is no such this as a demand problem.. They should have forward planned with atleast somewhat acceptable supply to something which was obviously going to be high demand. Instead they gave plans to AIBs last min, and had like a month production of a chips. They forced the launch early to get out before AMD/the consoles and to please shareholders for reporting.

This exactly 100%

Oh yes. Biggest and best manufacturer relationships my foot. I was suckered in. Just sticking with my order because I can't see any alternative at this stage.

Exactly my logic, too. I'd love to cancel my order at this stage, half on the principle of feeling a competitor deserves the sale more, since they're far more transparent, but... Queue positions & a lot of other retailers aren't taking orders.

Exactly this, but for certain I won't be pre-ordering anything with OCUK again.

Have you considered why these other competitors can't order stock? Maybe because it's already been ordered by OCUK?

except that other competitors have been receiving, and shipping stock, and of a much wider variety than we've seen here?

we're seeing people receiving Strix and Gigabyte cards for example.... why aren't we seeing that here if they're all ordered by OCUK?

One competitor has a very transparent table detailing when each brand is expected/will be shipped. It's clean and straightforward. I'd stand with the dozens of people in this thread that are just asking for some clarity for their £600-800 loan.

@GIGA-Man

Thanks for your update it is much appreciated.

Is there any chance you can sort a priority delivery for me direct from Aorus via helicopter drop. That'll make me feel a lot better.

 

[DexterMorgan]

A lot of talk about TUF OC, still no word of non-OC? I'm #15, I gotta be in the next shipment, but when will it be

cant believe it, :/

by rights they "should" but if there's money to be made then they already have ours so do the math

Shouldn't.
Orders must be dealt on FIFO system.

Looking at the situation from today and recent days info. With my Gigabyte Aorus Xtreme and being 168th - I should probably check back in a month (probably next e-mail update around then) as the earliest those cards will dribble into OC is very back end of this month. Probably mid Nov time to see if I have cracked 100.
Nov will be interesting to see the inflow of the top end Gigabyte cards especially in Nov as there is a promised ramp - i.e. will it be Dec or March for me depending on replenishing stock quantity.
Hopefully I can win the war of attrition with those who are fed up. If they cancel that would help me climb a few spots!

We shouldn't need to 'consider' anything. OC should be able to tell us. They obviously choose not to, which is the crux of most of the complaints here. Not that stock is limited. We're all grown-ups, we get that. It's the fact that OC has taken million of pounds up-front but a) seem immensely disorganised for the 'best' in the business, and b) treat their paying customers with contempt.

Like the promise last week with the queue emails that we would be updated at every shipping point. Just more lies.

They stopped taking orders when they realised they couldn't fullfil them all in a timely manner. OC are still taking pre-orders. When people are looking at next yr now why are OC still taking pre-orders? The other shops appear to be sending more than OC. whether thats just poor comms on OC's part who knows but it defo doesn't look good for the guys in here waiting

 

[Lee Trimble]

Does anyone know when OC are sending out gigabyte RTX 3080 masters ? I pre ordered mine on the 17th of September at 16:34 ! But it's currently still saying "order received - but not yet shipped" how long till oc receive gigabyte RTX 3080 master's ???

Gibbo's original comment was:
Small is less than 50
Average is over 50 (50-100)
Big was more than 100
1000+ is a dream

My guess would be that OK falls in the 50-100 space

Would be nice if they said we expect 50-100 tomorrow OK could be anything haha, but cheers assume its the average one then

 

[u2coop]

Is everything being ordered by Overclockers or by its parent company and being distributed between its companies.

 

[joedeath332]

we're seeing people receiving Strix and Gigabyte cards for example.... why aren't we seeing that here if they're all ordered by OCUK?

Wouldn't surprise me one bit if they were coming in and being used in pre build pc's where there is even more profit for them.

 

[ixwild]

This whole TUF incoming and then not getting shipped thing is making me nervous for the Ventus' cards...

 

[ceekay]

Imagine the outrage tomorrow when people who ordered Ventus will say their cards got shipped...

 

[Ben Kuch]

I've been wondering about whether PC builds with 3080s are being prioritised. Isn't it still a matter of order number? If we ordered those cards on the 17th and someone ordered a whole 3080 PC on the 18th, I doubt that this will be prioritised as it's a lower queue position. I might be completely wrong...

With regards to shipping confirmation emails, yes it is exciting/nerve wrecking. I have a feeling those are sent out after hours when everything has already been packed and shipped.

 

[Bazz21uk]

hence my comment that they "should" be in the same queue as us

 

[MoX_Farrow]

I sincerely hope that OC have more visibility on their expected deliveries than they're telling us. It seems from what little info we are getting that mostly they only know when stock is arriving that day or the next day.

 

[Clownface]

I just want to know where the zotac 3080 trinity non OC are at, as it seems there is nothing anywhere even on there forums about shipments etc, if I don't hear anything by 15th I will just cancel as I'm 168th in the queue and il just be waiting probably until January or even after... Would be nice just to have a bit of info from OC across all the brands of cards not just leaving the customers to find out themselves.. Just seems lazy on their part., just my opinion guys don't bully me
