Any idea what kind of queue there is on these? The website says new stock ETA 30th Jan but if the list is long and there is no chance of getting one then not much point. If however the stock is likely to cover the pre orders may well give this a go. So is there any update?

I seem to have resolved it now. Did a complete clean re-install of windows and got a better quality Displayport cable as well. Its working perfectly now. 3D working as it should and no flicker. I think that the problem might be the Asus GPU Tweak II software clashing with the Asus Ai Suite 3...

Just got a couple of Asus GTX 1080 Strix Aura 8G GPU. Set up in SLi and mostly working fine. However when I try to use the Nvidia 3D Vision setting then I have problems. It works initially but after a short time when playing a movie it begins to flicker and won't stop until the 3D Vision...

Gave up on the 1080 Strix OC. I was 180 in the queue having ordered on 1st June. Just didn't want to wait any longer and I am suspicious that Asus have a serious production problem and its going to be months not weeks before any large quantities of stock come in. I may be wrong but that is my...

If you paid attention to the other comments by Gibbo you would realise that the price is so high in order to deter anyone from buying it. At this point OCUK are trying to clear the back orders first and to stop that list from getting any bigger they have effectively priced themselves out of...

Hmm another retailer (in Bolton) has the Gigabyte Xtreme Premium pack back in stock. Any idea when the Gigabyte Xtreme Premium pack or single card might be back in stock at OCUK? I don't want to go to a competitor as I had a lot of hassle with their customer service and had to basically...

So any deliveries expected this week at all? I have pretty much reached the end of my tether waiting for the Strix OC so I am looking for an alternative that might be in stock sometime before Christmas.

I agree with a lot of the comments about the unfairness of this but I would take the swap. My view of what Gibbo said reading between the lines is that around 30 Strix OC will come this week and then after that there won't be any for a long time. Asus are switching production to cards they can...

So did any stock deliveries come in today?

Yeah thats true but due to the cards length I can't even fit one. I have a Corsair Graphite 760T so its not exactly a small case but it is not big enough it seems.

The Zotac looks like a really impressive card but it is just so big. I wanted to go SLI but no way I can get 2 of them into my system. At 58 mm wide it covers 3 slots so I would have to drop my sound card out and then the clearance for the fans would still be rubbish. It doesn't look like it...

The issue is not the problem of Tariffs although they have an impact its really about the non-tariff barriers to trade. They are far more of a problem and much harder to deal with. As an example say we took the David Davis route of no EEA agreement and fell back on WTO rules then we would be...

Quick question. sorry if this answered earlier in the thread but with the length of it is getting hard to check back. I am 180 in the Strix OC queue but it seems like a decent level of stock won't be coming anytime soon. I am thinking about giving up and paying up to switch to something I might...

I voted yes but I have a great deal of sympathy with the comments people have made about the inequity of being asked to take a lesser product for the same price because Asus can't deliver the original product. I feel the same about it but was willing to trade down simply because I have just run...

I voted yes. Currently 180 in pre-order list. Order#OC3103099 Is that enough detail?

Free trade deals mean lower to no tariffs and potentially lower non-tariff barriers to trade this means more trade takes place and more trade means more income for UK. Why is that so hard to understand? Have a look at Ricardo's theory of comparative advantage and then try some of Paul Krugman's...

Seems OK to me. Wolf whistling a woman in public like that is harassment. It is not invited by their behaviour or the context of the fact they are in public going about their ordinary business. In a situation like a bar the context is varied so demonstrating behaviour that signals a sexual...

No deal means less trade, add in non tariff barriers and the effect of distance (rule of thumb if distance doubles trade falls by a half) and you are talking about a possibly substantial reduction in UK income. Right now the USA is 17% of our trade. The point is that whilst in theory you might...

USA always puts ISDS provisions in its trade treaties, it is part of NAFTA as well which Canada has found out to its cost. Ironically in the EU we had more chance of avoiding it as a lot of countries are skeptical about ISDS provisions and the EU is big enough to push back at the USA as its a...

Sorry but he has not been using dog whistle politics because he has been explicit in stating the view that the rich should pay higher taxes. Dog whistle refers to using words or phrases that communicate a particular message to a group by way of coded references. That is not the case with Jeremy...
