That's all I think most people here wanted to hear, might stop some of the ranting.

RYZEN 5000 SERIES NOW ONLINE - 5950X, 5900X, 5800X & 5600X COMING NOV 5TH AT 5PM **NO COMPETITORS**
- Thread starter Gibbo
- Start date
So currently the 5600x wait time is going to be going into the multiple weeks before it gets cleared? just seems no new cpus have been sent in along time meanwhile people keep posting about snagging them and having them delivered already.
Yeah I'm not bothering to buy a motherboard or other parts at this time. Even at Black Friday "discounts". Because there's no point. You won't have a CPU for that motherboard until March some time. Or a GPU.
So really I don't want boxes of useless parts lying around, that I can't even test to make sure they work.
Maybe by *next* Black Friday I might be able to get hold of a Zen 3 CPU
Unless I've missed something that's different to what you said on the other update thread.
You said you had 220 5950x cpus 'delivered' as in with you in hand so that would mean that the first 220 people in the queue should be receiving their 5950x chips soon yet some under the 220 queue number have said they haven't been notified of shipping
You also said that you had another 40 'official' being delivered and another 35 'grey' within the next week or two which would mean in total the first 295 people in the queue should be getting there cpus with 220 guaranteed now.
However your statement above doesn't match as it's stating that you have shipped 189 so far with just shy of 100 next week which is less than the number you originally stated - has the number arrived been miscounted or is there now less stock than first said in or coming in?

I'm kicking myself for ordering the RAM and Motherboard etc, stuff is here and just laying around... the icing on the cake will be needing to RMA something when I finally get a 5900X next year.
I'm in the same boat feel the same just hope it all turns around soon
Exactly what I'm worried about. However so long as you manage to assemble your system within 6 months of the purchase of the faulty part, the law still assumes (iirc) that the part was faulty when you bought it.
If you don't manage to test all the parts within 6 months of buying some of them, I'm not sure what you could do then.
I already know I can't get hold of some of the parts for my build until 2021 (PSU and more). So really not worth buying the other bits, sadly
About the only thing I can do is upgrade my monitor!

You can't, they've stopped more orders until the pre orders have been delt with.
bah, was afraid of that, thank you for the answer though.
who on earth is pre-ordering at these prices though? way above msrp - takes 2 minutes to see that you can pre-order from other retailers for much less.
in addition have you now seen the price of the 3600? £230! what on earth are they playing at!

I'm gonna guess we get it at about 22:00 this week... Every week the email update time has slipped. My previous queue update email times were:
1st - 12:29
2nd - 16:43
3rd - 19:36
Also thanks Gibbo for finally pinning the update thread so we don't have to search for it!
100% agree. We all know they can't promise anything or even really talk about "expected delivery dates" because they inevitably slip and it upsets people. But knowing what they have done (e.g. stock shipped per day or week) at least lets us know that the queue is moving in the right direction.
Props to @Gibbo - keep em' comin!
