OK The Inno3D has massively oversold.

There was only around 15, so far I am seeing 57 sold and counting. Those who do not get a shipment notification by next week I would suggest cancelling and our CS team may automatically cancel the over sales.

Zotac one looks OK so far, but orders still downloading.

This is how quick this stuff sells and that is just via a forum post, we could literally sell thousands per minute if OcUK puts its full might behind selling these products.

When do you think things will get back to normal? March time?

I bet you wish you had the stock eh? Frustrating all round lol. Oh well hopefully stock starts rolling in faster soon...

Indeed, I'd rather just let the website do the work rather than me sitting here at 9pm on my day off pressing buttons inside the OcUK software.

Hi @Gibbo

I got ordered a Palit 3060ti at 15:06 today and received an 'order received' email.

Does that mean I have secured one ??

Stupid question i know, just excited and want to start selling my current gpu

Thanks!!

last chance?

Its full might

. Oh lord, pull the other one. The full might of a website keeling over and payment muck ups and no stock. Christ

Went for the zotac even though it cost more just because of more stock, on order received processing payment hope to christ I get it now lol

Zotac is looking good, about 70 of those seem to have sold and we just have enough to cover those.

Inno3D is now 70 and counting.

We sold 1200 units 6800 XT in two minutes, that is difference between letting the website and marketing teams do there work, whereas in five minutes this way looks to be about 100-150 units.

As such it is why the last few product launches OcUK has decided to not launch product, simply because the OcUK website is too mighty and ends up selling thousands of a product that will take a very long time to supply, best to avoid the launches all together whilst launch stock levels are under 5000 cards and stick to random forum post pushing out the few hundred cards we have and trying to avoid taking any back orders.

If OcUK had say 50/60k of these cards I reckon they'd last about 2hrs *max*

Thomangg · 3 Dec 2020 at 20:42

Had put through an order for one of the inno3d cards, how long will it take a refund to come through assuming I am in the majority not getting one?

Yeah, trouble is most of those sales would be scalper bots doing their thing.

Dogzey · 3 Dec 2020 at 20:43

Sweet! I made the right choice

Gibbo · 3 Dec 2020 at 20:44

I shall post a final update on numbers later tonight but so far:

Inno3D looks to have over-sold by around 50-60 cards.
Zotac OC models looks OK so far, pretty much sold them all but not oversold or shall be very minor.

BOTS cannot order from the site, all the orders coming through are genuine orders, a lot are repeat customers, the need to upgrade this time round is strong.

jonnylaris · 3 Dec 2020 at 20:46

So if my Inno3d 3060ti order says Order received - processing payment, it will probably get cancelled?

Repeat as in buying their 2nd 3060?

AtariNinjaGolf · 3 Dec 2020 at 20:47

Are more waves happening tomorrow or has all the stock been gone through? Thanks for any help with this!

I'm assuming repeat customers as in have bought something from OC prior to this

Good to know!

Yes everyone who ordered shall get one, next week I will give another opportunity for people to grab some more of those.

Thank you sir!

I've subscribed to every notification service i can find to try and get a 3080 / 6800 xt and not a single one of today's drops made it out to the general public They work as well as i bagged a ps5 this morning at rrp ... @Gibbo has definitely found the best way of selling these that stops bots / scalpers getting a sniff. Give that man a raise!
