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

i sincerely hope that the above "i suspect the cards are available to order from the suppliers but not at the price OC want to pay" is not what is happening! these orders should be honoured and no excuses, i know there are worldwide shortages but, we dont after waiting all this time want any shennanigans! so put the big boy pants on and please honour our preorders.
That's absolutely NOT what's happening, we haven't turned down a single card...even today we've raised a quarter million pound graphics order which includes 3080s at around £850 and 3090s at over £1500. Every brand is raising prices weekly, yet we are still buying.
As I've said before, there will likely be a point where we have to say, no more, but we aren't quite there yet.

please note those costs are excluding tax & shipping

I’m 24th in a queue for a 3080 ventus do you guys think I’ll get it in the next 3 months or so or should I cancel and just get a 3070 laptop
I don't think anyone can answer that question. If you actually really want a card and aren't missing the money staying in the cue and hunting for an alternative somewhere else is probably the best option. If your not really that bothered about getting the card and could use the money for other things in the mean time, cancel and check back next year. It looks like even Nvidia are admitting it's not going to be back to normal this year.

24th is really close though. I'm at 41 for the gigabyte gaming, there's just no way to know how long it's going to take. I've seen shipments come in that are around 50 units, I've seen shipments of 5. I could get sorted in the next batch, or it could take 10 shipments coming into OCUK to fulfil my order. There's no way of knowing. I'm just going to wait, the gigabyte gaming OC has been trickling through the whole time so maybe I'll get lucky.

We've had nothing for a couple of months, the two deliveries prior to that were short shipped (the distributor claimed that they went missing) and there's nothing on the latest email of lines due to be shipped from the factory for us (Which is pretty much the next three weeks worth). That's as much as we know.
 
@ScottiB are you guys in touch with Zotac at all? It seems like the only supplier that hasn't delivered a single card. The fact that I keep moving up one position a month seems to suggest it's just people dropping out rather than any cards arriving I assume?

That's one for @Gibbo
Zotac are delivering but as with all brands at the moment, there's less production on the entry level cards in the stack...or, at least, there's less reaching us.
 
Welp, just got my shipping order... not for a 3080 mind, I'm still 130ish for a Tuf non oc...

Managed to snag a Sapphire Nitro+ OC SE 6800xt coming tomorrow by all accounts.

Decided to give my dad a nice surprise later in the year when and if I do get my 3080. I'll upgrade the 980ti I am giving him shortly...

Enjoy your waits.
 
Todays a sad day. Time to cancel my 3080 MSI Gaming X Trio. Got a good deal but i dont think its worth if im going to be waiting another year for it to arrive. Good Luck to you all and i hope you will all be satisfied.

Very hard decision to make but sometimes you gotta suck it up.

Very best wishes to you all waiting.

Peace Out

I can only guess that NVidia are directing their production efforts elsewhere to the miners / mining cards.
I'd expect production to have ramped back up after the Chinese New Year shutdown, but it never happened.
Something else is going on, and NVidia aren't telling anyone.
 
Guys there is a seller on eBay selling a used GTX 1080 Ti for £100. That’s a bargain so if you are waiting for a 3060 or 3060Ti maybe get the GTX 1080 Ti. I know it’s used but a GTX 1080 Ti for £100? That’s a no brainier. Here’s the link if anyone is interested. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GIGABYTE...321930?hash=item5b8f5def4a:g:lIQAAOSwfntgeEtk They’ve already sold 20 in the past 24 hours there’s 10 in stock atm, so I thought you guys might be interested!
That listing is highly suspect

Used for gaming only, no mining.
Selling due to upgrade.
30 sold, 4 available

Hope you didn't buy one and I don't think you should be advising forum members to buy one. It's probably a hacked account

That must be one hell of a gaming machine if he had 25+ of them in his machine. :cry:
 
Everyone saying “cancel all the orders above 50” is so selfish, I’m a day one order at 300.
Ive spent £500 on a custom water loop and without my card that is also to waste.
Either cancel everyone’s orders, or cancel none and let people choose to wait, or cancel themselves.
