None expected, it's awful. They're still being produced but none from OCUK for months. 15.19 launch day order here, Christmas was ruined, on my own and without the ability to even play some games to pass the time as I'm on a barebones gpu.

Ouch that's about 20-30 mins after I ordered that same card and got it three weeks after release, it's horrendous how inconsistent OC are receiving cards. I hoped back on the forum to see expected it to mostly be sorted 4/5 months down the line but wow.
 
a rival has also cleared around 110+ 3080 TUF non-OCs since the new year, or perhaps they were upgraded to TUF OCs since their backlog of those was cleared. either way, that's 110 people who got their card.

i've been sympathetic to OCUK of late because it became apparent that my card wasn't being sold anywhere, but seeing a rival churn through their order numbers is pretty disheartening.

loads of PS5s coming in to the UK as well as Asus 3080s, along with the new fancy white strix models

If the manufacturers provided sufficient numbers then scalping on the bay would be eradicated overnight.

Holy smokes, unnamed main competitor seem to have cleared circa 1000 EVGA 3080 back orders (one way or another).

In that same time, from the information gleaned from various threads it seems OC have sent fewer than ten cards total.

Embarrassed for you lads and lasses. I really am.

Yeah their Gaming X Trio Back order has only 5 people waiting for It, while I, that bought on Launch Day, am still 230-something here(not gonna double-check my emails)... This is really embarrassing.
