Latest & greatest thing, ridiculous speeds theoretical at 11Gb/s latency reduced by 75% too

Only really became official in September this year, but there are plenty of routers supporting it:

Not much point buying something which doesn't come with the latest tech for at least some degree of future proofing

Hmm i see thats very interesting, thank you, the latency is the most interesting part there, especially for gaming

Just cancel. I did 2 weeks ago. No more stress from here, it was a marvelous moment.

No, but the worry and stress from constantly checking this thread and the other was driving me mad. I'll get one eventually, most like an AMD offering.

Only a 5700XT. But if you're wanting something better, you can always make use of the rain forest offering. That extended return period till the end of Jan was a great offering from the gods ;)

Multiple Xtremes delivered, only 1 shipped. Where are the others OCUK? Starting to wonder...

The person carrying them over to the delivery packaging boxes accidentally fell over and they managed to unbox themselves and slot into a pre built pc. What are the chances of that?!

Hey @transbaconist , I saw Gibbo posting earlier in the day that Zotac will give a shipment update (or something like this) at the end of the week. Can't find the post now and it's a shame he didn't post this to the other thread as it is relevand info for those on the Zotac queue. Hope this will mean good news for us in the non-OC queue.

Honestly it's all very suspect at this point. Why would they even bother shipping 1 card. Competitors have shipped on average 25-30+ cards ea of the Xtremes and OCUK has only shipped 1 when they received them in the TEENS. No info about why they only shipped 1, no info where they're being allocated (as if that matters considering we don't actually know how many they're getting anyway).

Very strange.

Maybe the rest were people that weren't on the forum?

This is WiFi 6 router I recently purchased I get 1Gbps download speeds on Virginmedia. And wow is the WiFi 6 so damn good. My mobile phone, laptop and my pc use WiFi 6 and it's so good. The customisation on these routers are crazy.
I was complementing getting this Asus wifi router
https://www.asus.com/uk/Networking/RT-AC86U/

But I managed to pick up this one below for £150 (same price as older one above) brand new about £30-50 less than RRP. So I got this and it's so good.
https://www.asus.com/uk/Networking/RT-AX82U/

I would prefer the triband bigger brothers to these but they are double the cost. Or this one is good too I've heard. https://www.asus.com/uk/Networking/ZenWiFi-AC-CT8/

On my pc ASUS x570 has 2x2 wifi 6 and could only get 150-200 Mbps download speeds on the virgin media hub 4. The new 1Gbps one you get only on 1Gbps plan. And now on my Asus router I get close to 800Mbps download speeds and the full amount upload

Very good. Worth the money
