I know right, twenty-pigging-four this week with over 1300 back-orders! I was expecting big numbers this week but if this is the rate then it's going to be some wait.
I, personally, don't think it's fishy - I'm in a queue at another (big) store and it's been the same. The truth I reckon is that either a) the logistical side is knackered or b) AMD can't make enough or C) a mix of the A & B.
It's C I think. There have been logistics problems at the ports...
eBay will be making a fortune from the scalpers.
I don't care what they say, this is a paper launch - I bet overclockers have shipped less CPU's this week than they usually do in an average week.
I don't blame the websites, it's entirely AMD's fault - disaster.
There's been a very useful update at the other place:
They have some dates where they are going to receive something, though the dates aren't definite and the quantity unknown. :rolleyes:
I assume the quote refers to the 5000 series CPU though as that's the thread we are in :D
On the subject though, I managed to bag a 3080 but now the 6800xt's have been reviewed I have buyer's remorse and want the top 6900XT. Can hardly believe that AMD managed to make up so much ground! :)
