MSI Gaming X Trio 3090 arrived this morning after 30mins of clicking add to basket yesterday elsewhere.

Just put my cancellation in with OC this morning so everyone behind position 8 goes up one.

Was an interesting journey and hope folks get their cards soon!

That's a good move, a more opportunist person would have kept the OC position and scalped the card when it did arrive. I think that moves me to 35!. Just a little bit miffed that other retailers (small) are getting the Trio out. Starting to wonder how much influence OC has with manufactures.

I do find it really odd that retailers seem to be getting more regular stock, I know I ordered the palit which I'm sure a lot of people will see as an undesired card, but I know of other retailers which has had further shipment's since launch day and sent out orders (my mate has been one of them that's received his)

I'm queue no 33 for Strix card... i don't expect to see one before Christmas :(

It's been seven hours and fifteen days
Since you took my pre-order cash away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since you took my pre-order cash away
Since you been gone I can do nothing I want
I can't afford a single thing
I can't eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

it took you 9 years but that was beautiful.

Here you go. Literally every single slider maxed (including grass quality) in both graphics settings and advanced, +4xMSAA + TXAA. Resolution was 'true' 4K, at 4096x2160, which is pushing a fair few more pixels than 16:9 4K...

How did the queue jumping happen?
Because until recently anybody deciding to swap cards kept their place in the queue.

He didnt order a 3080 until several days after launch and then after seeing the 3090 OC Strix he changed his order to that on the 29th. OCUK kept him where his 3080 order queue was and he got a place in the queue based as though he had ordered on 3090 launch date. Thats wrong.

i was told a week ago that i was in queue number 43rd for the Asus TUF 3080 (non oc) and that i would get updates after each shipment.
it's been a week now and i've got no email. so either there's been no shipments of the card or the system has bugged?

A Danish retailer stock levels showed they were getting 45 Strix OC imminently out of 150 orders, so I am hoping OCUK get a chunk more than that.. Lets be hopeful.

Maybe at 369 mine wont arrive this year :'(
