I seriously considered going up to the 3090. I decided to wait and go for the 11th gen instead espiecially as I can't be asked to sit watching discord or twitter for updates, maybe when it gets closer the the MSRP??

I mean I managed to snag a 6900XT StrixOC LC Edition and zero of those have popped up again after almost a month!

Erm Covid, is a world wide thing, so like everyone else they are taking care, so less staff less productive.
The we have BREXIT that's a totel cluster F U C K on its own, and also add Chinese New year. And also add on the fact nvidia knew they didn't have enough for supply. And then you have the scalpers knobs, and it's a known fact that ocuk could not handle the sheer volume on release date, they were in the poop b4 they even knew it.
Hope that helps
Sorry about spelling mistakes I'm on my phone rushing this message while at work.

OCUK kept taking pre orders for a while after release but Tbf they probably didn't expect the stock would come through this slowly. They are also losing money now on some pre order cards as suppliers are charging more that what they were sold for but I guess they're making some back with the new scalper prices of the cards they had in stock recently.
 
Did someone mention cluster f * c k earlier? Here's a picture of one, or 78 to be exact :mad:

Just finally got another webnote about dpd deliveries to Ireland saying they still have no info when deliveries will resume and now not even any indication when they might oh and helpfully suggested I can refund if I'm sick of waiting yet again after I have made it very clear I do not want to refund about 3 times after waiting since sept in a que and having my card shipped on Jan 7th....are you guys just giving up on your Irish customers now and asking us to refund ? Sure feels like it and that you don't care at all.

Bump!
 
Ok, this is going on to another level

3080s now selling for £1800+ on auction sites

Desperation for gaming or mining?
It's the 18th Feb, nearly 4 months since release
Not just GPUs
Most other components too
Maybe the government should get involved.

This will take a long time to recover.

It was the buyers choice to accept a non time-limited, first come first served pre-order system, no one forced anyone to do this. The whole episode is a joke, but retailers can't be criticised for false selling or making specific promises on when an order would be dispatched. I got a queue number and that was it.

The fact countless people who ordered cards listed as “in stock” “estimated delivery by 21st Sept” would argue that the retailers can be massively criticised. Some people even paid for fast delivery and some game codes sold with the cards were massively limited. They knew they’d have high demand, they’re not stupid, they can say whatever they want, but mine and everyone’s in the queues money is right where they want it.
