If people don't want to wait, look up some of the Twitter accounts or Discords that post stock updates. Forgetting about the ton of stock that's appeared in Germany, France and Spain. 5900X have appeared in stock 10 times in the last 2 days on one specific UK website, I'm not tracking the others, but I imagine they'll be similar. It's not even ravaged by bots like Ampere is, I was 8 mins late on the alert and there was still 5 left. In comparison, don't bother going to a 3080 link if you've missed the update by more than 30 seconds.

Honestly I have been checking almost hourly every day and yet to be able to pick up any from anywhere that is within at least £40 of the release price for one so yeah I would say they still pretty difficult to get ahold off tbh.
 
Don't panic, I'm ~50 and not heard either. I think for some reason when they have a shipment they start at the bottom and work up. So they got about 300 in and they start at position 300 and work down to 1 for some reason. I could be wrong but it seemed to be what happened with the 200 shipment
 
im waiting for snow to be used as an excuse for the mythical 300 5900x's not turning up. I've got more chance of sticking a unicorn in my new motherboard.

bah humbug
 
Sorry, I don't know the methodology used for OCUK's shipping.

Also as I had paid for next day shipping (Mon-Fri), I doubt that I will see it until Monday, unless OCUK are covering the extra cost due to the delay.

I paid next as well, but it makes no sense to work backwards. If, for example, 10 go missing/are defective or any other reason they cant be sold, then that leaves the first 10 people in the queue getting shafted, when they should have been proritised.

Oh in that case then I have no idea haha! Just tried to spot a pattern I saw from the last shipment but it could be anything. I'm just guessing, I know as little as everyone else here haha.

Perhaps they sort out what is defective before they start shipping.

I stand corrected as I have just received the shipping email, thanks OC, let the good times roll
 
Has anyone ordered other components with their 5900x order? Maybe they are prioritising orders with other components? Or just 5900x only orders? Trying to figure out if there is some sort of pattern because I don't believe it's random or done in reverse...
