I'm in the same boat, I'm getting too old for this day one release malarkey. And as for the extra 30 quid on top of MSRP just because - well they can cram it.

Absolutely. Especially as many will be upgrading from pretty decent CPUs already. A few weeks here or there is no biggie.

Placed my order at 14:05 and had an email confirmation at that time. However, no confirmation i am not on the pre-order list and order does not show up yet on their website.

Managed to pay finally, but pre-order only...absolute toss.
I'm not in a rush, but my board, memory and monoblock were hopefully shipping today.
I hope you're reading this Gibbo, can comb well for bots, and can sort out people like us who just watched the site crash over, and over, with a CPU in the basket the whole goddammed time until they went 'nope'

i wasted 5 mins on ocuk site. Yet got email but PayPal credit is pending still. My order too is not on their site. Wonder if the 30th is optimistic?
You gotta pay for Gibbos new Ferrari
Me too. My experience is mirrored with yours.

It's just standard price gouging. Demand is high, people will pay it, business is business.

I'm alright with that, one less in the queue.
Ordered a 5800x elsewhere, should have it by tomorrow 
It's a mug tax and yet they are still lining up round the block to pay it.

I got a 5900X from a competitor and paid £589.99, with free next-day shipping. I'm ok with this, as I have everything else for a complete system.
I did try OCUK but man, the website is seriously terrible. I don't know if I'll even bother with OCUK for the AMD GPUs later this month if this is how it's going to go every time.

I did the same. Grabbed my 5900x from a UK competitor at £509.99 at 2.06pm. I couldn't' do the hassle of OCUK, like the 3080 release, despite getting my card.
