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

    Stock has badly dried up since those times months ago though, more than likely any movement now is odd few taking the alternative offers if still going but mostly cancellations. I cancelled mine in November last year as I got a 3080 elsewhere, even got a Founders Edition for my brother end of...

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

    It was always hit and miss if anything was posted in there, even when 30 odd came in of one SKU it did not get mentioned, we only knew by people posting they received dispatch notes in here or the previous starting thread.

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

    Two or maybe 3 mentions in 12 months is hardly banging on, going by data on the customer database that was set up, orders for all skus but one (Zotac 3080 Trinity for which no records past 28 Sep) were still being taken in mid October and did not cease until end October and into Mid November...

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

    Most all other retailers stopped taking Preorders within 4 days of launch, most a week, OC carried on well into October some in November, hence the massive rod for their own back, especially as they were getting smaller shipments of stock than other retailers as well. On some SKU's they actually...

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

    Weekly email only came weeks after forum members had created their own database for estimating queue position and estimated date of arrival, most if not all suppliers stopped Preorders within a week of launch when it became clear major stock shortage and supply was an issue, OCUK were still...

    They should be on seperate lanes at least from the GPU in any case so I would not worry about it.

    They are doing the discount/upgrade emails in Queue order so your friend should not have been allowed to jump the queue so to speak, it is entirely unjustified to get a discount he was not yet entitled too. The people answering the webnote should have been diligent in assessing the situation...

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

    The guy was on about Queue update emails not the Update thread which is updated infrequently, mainly by Gibbo, We have had relatively large quantities delivered in past with not one mention in that thread. Queue update emails on the other hand were being done weekly but seem to have tailed...

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

    Producing the Queue update emails is OC's responsibility and they started producing them after a two months of pestering from customers who wanted it, this was after forum users produced a spreadsheet of estimated dates from user provided data. They should get the one man who knows how to...

    ** NVIDIA RTX 30 SERIES (3090 / 3080 / 3070) NOW ONLINE AT OcUK **

    Did not even know that it has been in operation for months, thought the Deal thread at the top of the Graphics Card section was new here apart from the one in the MM section. Not that it lets me and many others see it anyway.

    Help for long time existing customer but new to forums

    That would be my assumption as well, a very small range has been set instead of greater than or equal to 50. Its either that or the forum members database is not fit for purpose.

    ** NVIDIA RTX 30 SERIES (3090 / 3080 / 3070) NOW ONLINE AT OcUK **

    Most people cannot see the new section that went live you can see with 180 days and 50 posts, supposedly a technical issue is preventing the majority from seeing it, not sure how, it must be a very picky system to only let a few see it.

    Help for long time existing customer but new to forums

    New section still not visible too many including me it seems. Are you getting any people with only 50 posts or whatever seeing this supposed new section, would be interesting to know how many can actually see it if any.

    They were still taking orders a week later, all other retailers stopped orders within 2 days as they realised they were not going to be able to cope with the amount of stock estimated to be coming.
