Happy to see an appreciable amount of shipping notifications here. Enjoy your cards!

Sad that I'm sat at 681 in the Eagle OC queue and none appear to have shipped. Sounds like there might be some power cable issues. Who knew that putting 350W through that twisted mess of crap could have consequences.

14:38. My email last week said Queue position 13 so I was expecting (and still am expecting) to be in this shipment... It's a little worrying I haven't had any email and the OCUK My Orders says Not Yet Shipped...

Give them a call. Maybe they've just forgot to update the order to show its shipped...maybe?

its the connectors afaik and not the wiring/power. loose terminals from repeated plugging/unplugging and no pcb to support them so they push back into the connector. If it meant getting a card faster i'd be happy to sort mine out myself ;)

And wait on the phone for 1hr for them to hangup on me before talking (I've seen a bunch of posts here of that happening)... I have better things to do with my time. Like refresh this page ;)

I'm just gonna get CS anyway who won't be able to do anything.. especially if all the shipment has gone out, just "tough titties wait for the next one" will be the best I get :(

Yeah, a lot of speculation here to say the lease.... last week it was "oooh, the cheapo capacitors!"... fingers crossed they are going to ship soon.

I've seen internet reports that both might be an issue, but sure, the pins look shonky as hell. I suspect the cabling is just ugly rather than dangerous. The pins, though...I'm no astrophysicist, but as I understand it, if the pins don't quite make contact you can get an electrical arc, which can then lead to a black hole being created inside the gap, and space monsters come out of that. Nobody wants space monsters in their PC case.
 
Just for anyone wondering as I was earlier if we'd still get codes for the promotion with this shipment, the answer is yes. I've just been emailed my watchdogs and geforce now code so I'm very pleased
 
So we know its 3 week for Aorus Xtreme cards to arrive with more arriving two weeks later - I'll have to gauge mid Nov time to see what the numbers are like - if there are 40-50 cards I might get it this year. If its more like 5-10 it will more more like easter

Still not sure if I'll get one with my Vision OC which was shipped today.

Ignore my last about not calling... I literally just dialed the number, the nice automated man was telling me to press a button to get the right department..... and the email popped up :] Now shipped.

How do you know this? Didn't Aorus tweet last week that the Xtreme cards would ship a week after the Master?

Won't make much difference to me as I am pos. 116 so I will prob have to wait until star-date 5056 anyway.
