Phew, I feel better now... :|
Well, we're in the 2k club, definitely mile high club.

That's over £1.5m OC are sitting on just on TUF non-OC's. Wowser, that's a lot of money.
 
Still exactly the same queue position. What a great supplier. Good news ASUS TUF non-OC, you're about to move up exactly 1 position. No longer giving money and definitely no longer recommending this site for people. Terrible communication, terrible practices and generally an awful business trying to squeeze every penny out of their customers with no products for the forseeable future.
 
I noted that the 3080 Ventus were listed as "3080 Ventus - OK amount shipping from MSI factory 31st, due with us a week later.", the other three didn't mention where they were shipping from, so whether they expected them today, and they were late, or they have only left the factory today and will arrive in a week or so doesn't seem clear to me.

Give 1-3 days to not stress yourself out
My card got shipped today from a batch that was originally meant to be here Wednesday
 
Position 1005 for an Eagle. If you get to the number one spot they should reward you by sending you an RTX 3080 graphics cards. That would be so cool.

I can but dream......
 
Hello everyone, long-time compulsive thread-checker, first time poster. :)

I'm in the Strix 3080 non-OC queue. Went from 113 to 104 today. Getting very twitchy watching the Strix OC backlog numbers coming down on other retailers with no word on the non-OC versions. Also watching Big Navi with growing enthusiasm. In 20+ years of computer building this would've been the first time ever that I got a premium Nvidia graphics card at launch, but looks like destiny wants me to go back to AMD. :D

BTW, I work for an industrial tech company that imports components from Asia, and in a meeting today we heard that freight coming out of China is a nightmare right now. Air freight has been a mess because of global travel restrictions (a lot of air freight travels in the hold of commercial passenger planes, so if they aren't flying then freight costs skyrocket and queues build up in warehouses) and shipping ports are a mess with the added cargo (not to mention Brexit is making everything for the UK much worse). Plus Apple has apparently out-bid a lot of businesses for new iPhone shipments on air-freight, so stuff is being delayed because of that too. All in all I'm not surprised that the OC team is getting very sporadic updates on where stock is and when it'll arrive. I guess it's going to be really telling what happens when Big Navi launches and whether the same problems occur.
 
Ok, so I'm quite chill about stuff taking a while, meh whatever. However today I got a bit triggered :) So I decided to catchup a bit on whats been going on in the forums, and see that Gibbo said: "Asus are going to be making none OC products as well, but as with all launches the first waves of stock are always the OC models, Asus have made no announcement stating none OC cards will be made and are still requesting resellers to setup and take orders for none OC products."

I'm sorry, but thats nonsense, unless ROG have been lying to me on Facebook and Twitter, where they have said that OC and non-OC cards are being produced equally.
Anyways, I'll message ROG again asking if what Gibbo said is true. I'll let you guys know on the outcome.
 
We need be positive about the TUF. ASUS are one of the biggest gpu manufacturers. We have seen hardly any stock of the TUF or strix. They are making cards so they must be somewhere ! Hopefully we will start to see stock come in within a few weeks in larger amounts.
Maybe due to the larger amounts they have decided to ship them by sea ?

Also, 148th down to 144th on TUF non oc. Better than nothing !
 
MSI RTX 3080 Gaming X Trio queue position
02/10 - 570
15/10 - 531
23/10 - 496

Not bad movement in the last week. Just still wish I ordered it earlier than the 4:58pm on launch date.

Let me just also add a quote from Asus ROG "Hi xxxxxxxx, all Strix, TUF, OC and non-OC are all coming at the same time. All being produced equally"
