8800GT Stock?

Are nvidia having trouble with these chips or getting bad yields? Getting 10 in at once reminds me of the x800xt-pe fiasco.

Apparently, it's lack of some power components that have held things up so far. They have plenty of G92's piled up ready. Some of the usual websites have had various news stories along those lines anyway.

Also, OCUK have had more than 10 in today, the stock level said 10+, and I understand that was after fulfilling backorders, so that could be anything from 11 upwards!!

The huge demand for these GPU's is what the problem is really.
 
Sold out again!!

I bet they wish they could get more.

I was tempted by another one to go SLI, but I think I'll wait for the asus to come back in so I've got a matching pair - I'm funny like that! ;)
 
I feel a bit sorry for people getting in from work, who have been waiting a while for there card, then read this thread and realize they have missed all the stock that came in and the chance to change their order and get a GT.

Yes m8 I think I was, I dont know how many they got in but like I said on another thread, I ordered on the 29th and it arrived on the 2nd, when I expected to wait over another week when the ETA changed, so you could get yours anytime no matter what the ETA is, just keep an eye on your email inbox.
 
I bought a Gainward one yesterday my order spent 3 hours in security validation and by the time it went through to the warehouse queue all had gone.

Clicked on a OC version today at 2.20, web showed 10+, in security validaton until 5 ish, now in warehouse queue. Web now shows pre order, so will find out tomorrow if I've managed to bag one, not hopeful though.

can i ask what time you ordered yours ? ordered mine at 3:13pm still no sign of being shipped which i find odd as i could pick and pack and send 100 on my own in 3 hours.

Well they have to send all the pre-orders first. Mine still hasn't shipped and I pre-ordered Nov12th. Bit miffed cause prob won't get till Monday now (Ireland) :(

Missed it :(

Managed to find one elsewhere so fingers crossed will have it on Friday.

I have been playing Crysis today and I need more power. Online is unplayable, in anything other than low!
 
Well I ordered mine at 1.39pm and it is in the warehouse queue still. I know they use city link for most of their deliveries who I am pretty sure run a lot later than Royal Mail. Cmon pack pack pack!!!:p

Errr, 3:00am last Friday.

I got an email saying it'd been shipped at 5:30pm so there's still a chance yours will be shipped tomorrow I think.
 
Ok this is not good if mine isn't dispatched tonight am canceling no point paying a premium and getting a slow delivery imo.

I am refreshing both this page and my order page like a madman, my wife thinks I am nuts! I have never had this problem before when ordering. I am not giving up yet! I was assured on the phone it would be sent so they best not let me down!
