I’ve been a bit under a rock but can anyone tell me why OCUK don’t have a single GPU (worth having!) for sale?

That's globally not just UK

Nvidia and amd don't want to make graphics cards, they only want to look like they're making graphics cards for shareholders but actually they're just making AI accelerators for datacentres

The only explination for all this is its intentional, they dont want to be making and selling gpus when they can make so much more money selling as AI. They dont care about us and even if we all stopped buying gpus they wouldnt care until the AI bubble bursts. Then they'll start selling gpus again and we'll all lap it up as there is no competition.

the bubble burst on that one with DeepSeek, they proved ChatGPT level AI can be done without massive server farms full of NVIDIA GPUs hence the stock drop..
 
Zotac are selling cards directly to gamers via Discord. Zotac on Discord (via VideoCardz), "we want to reward real gamers and active members by giving you the chance to secure a slot to purchase a Zotac Gaming GeForce RTX 5080 or 5090—no bots, no scalpers, just my fellow gamers."

So I sent them an email saying Ive bought Amp extreme since the 10 series and that each card was registered on my Zotac account

Response:

Hi Hobib,
We do appreciate the brand loyalty, and hope you’ll continue to have many happy years with our products!
Unfortunately at this time we do not sell directly in this region (UK/ Europe). Since you’ve already placed an order with OCUK, you are guaranteed to receive a 5090 by July 2025, and we are working on making more stock available to hopefully reduce the waiting period.
Kindest regards,
Eurotech Team
