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

Same as pretty much every other card manufacturer, they are able to produce enough 3070/3090 to meet demand, but not the 3080.

It appears that they can't get enough 3080 GPUs from Nvidia right now.

I dont understand how they can have less 3080s, its a joke at this stage, the 3080 and 3090 both share the same GPU, but NVIDIA seem to just produce more 3090s even doh the 3080 is the most popular.
 
I’m pretty sure the 3090 has been produced in similar numbers to the 3080, if not less, only reason people are “getting cards sooner” is because there are less people buying 3090’s

No, Nvidia don't make predictions about FE availability.

We do know that the numbers of them being released for sale have dropped significantly, as has the frequency.

Right now, even if you know where to look for them and how to get alerts when they are available you need hair-trigger reflexes to stand a chance of getting one.

Thank you for that information. At least those rumors I've been reading don't have any truth to them. I'd better polish up on my old man reflexes during the wait :)
 
I am in the Gigabyte Eagle OC 3080 queue. I have moved up only 254 places since I ordered in the first hour of launch. Is this a particularly slow queue? Out of interest how many places has the Gigabyte 3080 Gaming OC queue advanced?

I have been waiting since November for my GTX card and other items associated with the order, and I can only say positive things about Gibbo and the OC team. Only those that have great experience in being spoilt in life can complain and judge negatively about not receiving their card. OC team have been clear and transparent with their comms, they have upgraded cards for free and as a business I will forever applaud. I really do hope that the team does not entertain users/customers that wish to be abusive in their complaints. In a fair world, a policy that automatically cancels orders from abusive customers and remove them from the pre-order queue would be a great policy.

Each one removed cists OCUK another Merchant fee, to perfirm the refund.
If staff are being personally abused they need to be protected. But if a customer is venting at OCUK in general, and not being personally abusive, then it's not so clear cut. After all, it's a forum, and the mods can cut them just from here.

I think OC is registered for Irish tax. Otherwise they'd need to refund the UK tax and take payment for the new tax rate. Customs could be an issue.

If tax is covered we still will be faced with customs due to it being over 150 euro. OCUK might have a better idea of how it will work for us if we get an update or statement from them.

Could we send it to N.Ireland and do a legger across the fields? I've heard custom agents are afraid of cattle.
 
Gibbo said:
No 3080's will be appearing on sale for sometime I am afraid, probably April onwards because as and when we do get any free stock we shall use that stock to upgrade customers who have been waiting.

Only cards we plan to open up for ordering soon as in end of week / next week is 3070, 3060Ti, 6800, 6800 XT and 6900 XT.

What's the current plan with this?
I mean I'm literally refreshing all the time for this 6800XT drop.
