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

Hey Guys, I have never had a good card before, best I've had was the 1070, so today to keep me going while I wait my 2080TI arrived I have been in VR most of the afternoon, tell me is it normal for the fans to be going full bore most of the time?
 
why is everyone freaked out about the non OC TUF?
some have already been sent weeks ago... it's the strix non OC that's nowhere to be found.
Tuf non o.c is easily the most pre ordered card and was the MSRP initially and represented a good deal. They shipped some and as far as we can tell none have shipped globally in five weeks. More orders equals more rage

Because they've gone fully Incognito since launch, and Asus only seem interested in shipping OC labelled cards.

The Strix non OC is definitely disappeared and some Asus reps have said as much, I believe. But that doesn't mean anything great for getting a TUF before they've soaked up the market willing to pay the OC markup.

You're joking right? It's been over a month since a single TUF non-OC and almost that much to the OCs too. I ordered 16 mins after launch and I'm still here 6 weeks later waiting lol

Strix non OC isn't sending either, both are in a bad spot, it's not a contest lol

Must have been a cancellation for the Tuf OC as I moved up one place to 97... order time was about 10pm...... passed the peeved period and just in the it’ll turf up sometime zone...

Oddly enough I’m still running a pair of 970 striks and they can cope with MSFS 2020 at highish levels.

run a vive pro on an msi 1080 gaming x and it runs fine maxed-out with no fan increase.
 
JUST got the email to receive my inno3d 3080 + waterblock . Though before that, I was 19 in the cue. The official 3080 posts that have been coming up didn't even mention they had stock coming in or not.
How's this possible OcUK? I'm 1st in position since the beginning and no email... Here we go again :D
I suppose if I would buy more items I would receive an email ahah
 
bit of a shame, oc seemed to pay some attention to peoples concerns and even came on the forum to answer questions and provide updates. Sadly since then they seem to have gone into radio silence mode again. I really don’t think they get how annoyed some people are. if you are one of the laid back ones, who constantly berate the others who ask questions that’s fine, you can ignore any updates, you don’t have to read them. For the rest of us radio silence doesn’t seem a great way to run a business.
 
In case I want to return it. Also, my system is SUPER old, so their would be serious bottlenecks...

Intel 4690k
16gb DDR3 Memory
Gtx 980

Would be bottlenecked more so at 1080p and 1440
4k not so much
I am gonna be using mine in my old rig with i7 4790k and 16gb ddr3 while I build my new machine
Undecided to go with Intel or AMD processor yet
