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

HI there

A little update, as others have posted some Gigabyte cards were booked in on Christmas Eve, hence the shipping notifications.

Also the 70pc Asus TUF NONE OC 3080 are booked in and awaiting shipment, when they will ship no idea as I am on holiday now until next week, but the stock has landed so will ship at somepoint, but suspect maybe Monday now, with festive break.

There have been no new shipments this week as expected with most of the industry on festive break, just stock we were owed turning up.

Let us hope in 2021 the manufacturers are able to ramp production massively, particular on 3080 which is still sold out worldwide.

Have a happy new year everyone. :)

Awesome just had the dispatch email. Cannot wait, thanks for the update @Gibbo have a great new year :)
 
A stick works, make your own. Mines is a piece of 10mm dowel about 8cm long used to prop up the end of the GPU, paint it any colour you wish if you're interested in looks, or use a piece of clear acrylic if that floats your boat :)


I actually bought some "upHere Graphics Card GPU Brace" units from the Rainforest - quite sturdy and definitely prevent sag. Also looks smarter than the random piece of plastic I was using as a prop before.

Congrats! Did you get your COD and GF Now codes?
Tbh I've not checked for game codes but I don't remember them being part of the bundle when I ordered as I just wanted the card..which I'm more than happy with.i think its been covered here before about game codes that if you contact nvidia explaining the delay they'll do you a solid?I might be wrong though but I don't think its an overclockers issue as they're kind of the middle men in all this

Or the board partner whos giving the game code offer..maybe not nvidia directly
 
I know it should be tubes down on the aio but I had to frontmount the radiator to account for the short tube length.theres a tray that thermaltake does to move the radiator further to the left but your not benefiting from the case ventilation anyway by that point..anyway,its my frankenstein and I love it
 
Chrome doesn't like non https images.

I had to update my hosting service to have a cert (which turned out to be a one button, free option with 34sp), to get my hosted pictures to work.


More specifically its about mixed mode.

This forum is a https website, its frowned upon to have http content on https pages. Also if you do have https any certificate should be trusted. But as you found out now days certificates are free and easy to get. :) (thanks to letsencrypt).
 
Bad news guys... The reseller posted my £1030 ASUS 3080 TUF OC to the wrong address which was refused by a neighbor. I can now either wait for it to be returned back to him so he can resend it or ask for a refund.

I'm really ****** off because I wanted to play games on New Years Eve! :mad:

The question now is should I continue with purchase or wait an indefinite amount of time for a 3080Ti?
 
Who knows how long you will be waiting for the ti. Just like all these silly YouTube videos saying the 3080 is dead due to the ti. What? So my 3080 no longer plays the games I play anymore at an acceptable graphical and FPS? I am more than happy and am playing most titles at 4K 60-115fps with variable graphical settings based on the game engine. The cards are not obsolete after 3 months just like many 2080 ti owners are more than happy with their cards. Depends if you just have to have the best irrespective of whether you just play CS GO or not
