There has been a month since the 3080ti, the 3080 has had 3 drops in that time, so much for the 3080ti hurting 3080 drop theory.

Managed to grab a 3070. Glad I didn't click on the 3080 link as I probably would have missed both.

Well done lads who got them.
Would've had a 3070 if I had seen it.

For anyone that might be interested, partalert have a Google doc that they update after each drop:

Whats wrong with the 3070FE when you got if for 480£ ? how much more the AIB costs that is amazing price the performance of the AIB isnt even that much extra and considering how much more they cost unless you meant you really wanted the 3080 FE ?

£480 for a 3070 is very good!

Cadder · 13 Jul 2021 at 13:46

I wouldn't be upset with a 3070 FE for £480.

What's wrong with the FE cards? I'm also bagged a 3070 today.

I feel like they have inadequate cooling.

I seriously regret not pulling the trigger on a 3080 a month or so ago. Had it in my damned basket and for some stupid reason unknown to me, I backed out at the last minute. Was on the toilet this morning and missed the drop, well missed that one anyhow! :cry:

Finners · 13 Jul 2021 at 15:15

Order still not been picked yet, here's hoping it doesn't get cancelled

I recall waiting a considerable amount of time before it was all confirmed and the boxes were ticked off. Hang in there!

They do run a little hotter but for the price… can’t go wrong.

Nah, you would have probably got it declined as per their nonsense website as some have said.

I got the 3080! Although would have preferred the 3070 haha

Sarge2255 · 13 Jul 2021 at 15:32

Are there still people queuing up for these on the ocuk waiting list?

3080 is way faster and worth the extra cash.

Maybe but it's an FE card, if only it was the Asus Tuf OC haha
