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

As soon as we get our queue position update we'll understand more. I can imagine if those numbers go in the wrong direction for people things will get a little heated ;)

No, if you had some patience, you would've got the 3080 for ~£500. Your impatience cost you £300.

The hype takes over and sends people on a mad one.

I'm still on a 1080ti and just waiting for my card, probably 2021 but my 1080ti can still hold its own until the 3080 arrives. No rush

An "OK" amount of Ventus came in, a small amount shipped out, what happened to the rest? :D

We know from people who have got shipment emails that queue position 47 got one sent out. Gibbo might just have been simplifing for thisd update (or they got slightly less than expected, though if small is >10 and average >50, "ok" may be slightly less than 50).

Im starting to think we, the Asus Strix OC many, have been duped. I don't think Asus has made any! its all a figment of our imaginations, maybe a bad dream! They are sat in their boardroom laughing their socks off at us all!

Seriously though, some real news would be very welcome!

We know they have, as other UK retailers have already shipped some
 
Gibbo reminds me of dungeon master from dungeons and dragons. Pops up unexpectedly, gives them a nugget of information while raising more questions and then pi$$es off leaving everyone to squabble amongst themselves! I hated that little pri**

LOL, now THAT'S a blast from the past! And yes, he was a bit of a kn*b. (Dungeon Master, not Gibbo)

Then again, gibbo could also say 25 turned up, but actually 35 turned up. We wouldn't know any different if they held some back. This must be down to the NDA and also not wanting to guarantee deliveries to customers.

NDA with who though? If other etailers can give out numbers they can't be under NDA (or are in breach of it), do you think nvidia & AIBs would target little ol' ocUK with an NDA banning them specifically from giving numbers out?
Seems daft if you ask me.
 
It's funny how there is a brief moment of cheer and happiness after gibbo posts an update...Then 2 Days of aggression where the pitchforks come out.
Now, where the **** is my Trio you ****** ******!:D
 
Right folks, Parcelforce has lost my founders edition at the delivery depot. Now I need some advice: what card at OCUK do I have a chance of getting? Which have the lowest queues/fastest shipments?
 
Nvidia have made a right mess out of this launch so i am going to cancel my 3080 Strix oc pre-order and wait it out for the 20gb version.

I am 721 in the queue and with zero news on shipment numbers coming out i do not see the point in hanging about.

Good luck to everyone waiting and i hope you get your cards soon.
