Looking at my queue numbers, no. There was no ramping up. It was pretty much a linear decline up until around the end of November, where the shipments actually slowed down.

Now this slow down might actually be just people not cancelling anymore but it continued until January. There have been two nice shipments for the non-OC so far this year so I'm staying positive. Still sucks that I ordered on release day and I'm in this position :/

The cards have dried up as crypto started rising as AIBs are selling directly to miners for more profit while cutting out the middlemen.

The problem isnt the making more stock or receiving more stock the issue has really been ASUS and nvidia have promised updates and provided nothing, if you mail ASUS they will say WOW you managed to get into a queue, the reality is expectations need to be set and expectations need to be managed but without ASUS and NVIDIA setting expectations OCUK have nothing to manage,hence the ... no update .. no news .. dont really know

Unfortunately not. As far as OcUK is concerned, the contract of sales is not final until the we ship the goods and B2B orders, such as us buying from suppliers, simply aren't subject to any protection at all.

the only way to negatively impact those responsible for the lack of supply is to voice your displeasure on their social media and buy an alternative product instead of theirs.

I wonder what will happen the first time someone challenges the fairness of that contract in court.
