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

[Illuminist]

I'm thinking of making a music album out of this whole charade with the RTX 3000. I've got the first three songs so far:

It's a hard TUF life
Thank you Mario but our GPU is in another shipment
Don't go breaking my bank

I see gpu baby, shaking that cash, shaking that cash

 

[BigBuffalo]

When do us TUF non-OC chums give up?

 

[Kangaxx]

So far I've seen gaming oc and masters this morning

I have also seen some GameRocks go up and sell out instantly. My F5 key is worn out now

 

[LordOfBeyond]

Promo period ends 29th oct and codes must be redeemed by 29th nov so there is still a slim chance

Can we like get different game? Will nvidia for something like this when we finally get our cards. We purchased these now so should get the code for something if we keep the order. Can we beg for a code?

Add that one in lol

It would certainly not be my 1st choice either, but desperate times call for desperate measures.

I don't even want the game but it's the principle for me. Not my fault that nvidia are so incompetent!

Anyone in the Ventus 3080 queue above 96th, you've just improved by one spot.

Managed to score a Aorus Master from a competitor this morning so cancelled my order here.

When do us TUF non-OC chums give up?

I'm going down with the ship lad. I'll be holding on all the way down to Davy Jones' locker. Gibbo's grandkids will be living off the interest from my TUF non-OC deposit.

@Gibbo Please can we have an update on the Asus Turf OC, I don't mind if you have none coming in till November but would just like to know, as then I don't have to keep checking on here or the update thread, and I can switch off the email notifications as my heart sinks every time I see a notification for a different card getting stock and no information on the Turf OC. Please just let me know some information on approximate arrival. Thanks

 

[Matthew Bell]

need to get a new gpu, was wanting to pre-order a 3080 in the next week, is it even worth going for it with the queue times? Should I try my luck on the 3070s when they launch?

They dont have any info, which is why they haven't given any. They don't know

Me too in that case, OcUK will live rent free in my head for the rest of my life

NEVER! WE SHALL FIGHT, TO OUR LAST BREATH!

Or when one of my 11 watched websites gets pretty much any 3080 in stock. Whichever comes first.

 

[Vesalius]

If I don’t get my card by EARLY November I am going to simply refund

That's your right to exercise

Try not to let the purchase of a graphics card weigh so heavy on you. Overclockers process the refunds quickly if you can't wait.

Do you work for OCUK? (if you don't I would rather hear it from them, not a lot to ask really)

Just had a Palit 3080 Gamerock in my basket from a competitor site for £748.99 but didn't buy. I've decided Im waiting for AMD and then decide. All the Palit cards are now gone.

I know @GIGA-Man said that there will be some low numbers of Eagle (in the teens) coming next week, and a larger shipment the weeks after (Still no idea if that's to be shared out over all EU/UK retailers) - either way, it's not going to be enough to get me my card.
But.....the lack stock arriving at all (Nothing since 24th of September, and that was a 'very small' amount), and the fact that details have been super sketchy suggests that in contrary to what GIGA-Man said, there has to be a problem that is keeping from shipping. They are one of the most popular cards - but with one of the lowest confirmed shipments. The power connector has been an issue with early cards - but this is not meant to be slowing down the process....

....so what is? A bit of honesty please. Info about a delay due to issues 'might' lose you (Gigabyte) some sales - but weeks (Sorry, months) of no info and very few cards will (IMO) cause people to grab any card that shows earlier availability - I know the moment I see another 3080, I won't even look at the brand...
