Kyle at hardocp reckons there will be plenty of stock coming through pretty soon.

What you are going to see will be different from what NVIDIA has done.

AMD MBA cards will be in short supply up front. However, where you saw NV front-load almost all its cards, AMD is backloading. Once AIB cards hit, you will see 5 to 7 times the inventory released than what NV has shipped total in NA at this time. AMD will be heavily back-loaded into the channel. AMD is shipping ASIC BOM kits nearly daily to AIBs at this point and it will continue to happen throughout Q4. There will be a decent supply through Q4.

Now let me say this again as it is worth hearing. There is no way that when AMD was doing its projections for supply, that it could have even fathomed that NVIDIA would totally **** the bed on 3080/90 supply for the quarter, effectively abandoning the $500 to $1000 GPU TAM. NVIDIA has left such a gaping hole in the market that there is no way it can be filled currently. From my information and analysis, AMD projected to grow its portion of the TAM and will have inventory to do that. The sad fact is that NV simply abandoned its customer in that market and there is no possible way for AMD to fill the void.

Managed to get my order (Powercolor) in at 14:31pm, now confirmed. Anyone before me?

Same product 14:29 not confirmed.

"Your order has been shipped"

Took a gamble and returned the RTX 3070. Paid off .

no.12 in the queue for a 3070 with "Barcode". Cancelling. I have absolutely no GPU

 

[hyperseven]

Is there no launch game bundle

 

[SnR3]

I snapped one in at 14:27 wonder if that's preorder already or actual stocked product

Thread delivers, what a total pillock.

Do forum members get free shipping?

Not based on if you've been here for a decade or spent thousands of pounds with them, mostly based on how many posts you have in the forum.

After all the comedy today and all the farce of 6800 launch - just got stock alert and snagged a 3070FE for £469 elsewhere.

I got an order through, had email confirmation and status is "Order received - not yet shipped". Fingers crossed!

Same, as a favour for a mate as he couldn't be at a computer at 2pm. He was happy to pay £80 over RRP if it meant getting a launch card. Didn't manage to get an order through til like 2.30 though so I doubt there will be stock and it'll be cancelled.

Disappointed in OCUK though for the pricing, personally I'm considering a Sapphire Nitro 6800XT when they arrive, and this has certainly made me consider which retailer I'll buy from more carefully. I'm not fussed about getting a launch card either.

Oh my God! My order shipped!

Of course making money is the goal here, bogging down a discussion in semantics is a waste of time, I think we came assume most, if not all people understand the basic premise of buying and selling, what I am alluding to, if I have to actually spell it out for you it why the considerable increase in pricing over their competitors? What are OcUK offering to justify that?

Scarcity.

Awesome, MSRP too! Congrats

 

[Deleted member 66701]

The ebay scalpers are even worse than OCUK!

Those prices are maddening, and the fact that people might pay it is even more insane!

I've been chucking some 100k bids on scalpers cards today

So have lots of others.

The irony is that most people I see with many thousands of posts are also the same bitching about *insert daily reason here*, yet it's the datum that matters the most to OCUK in regards to loyalty and reward.

I had no idea! I've been a customer for decades but only joined the forum to complain about the AMD CPU launch

I got my order at 14:40:10 and got the confirmation email Although, I have to say I was traying to checkout for a lot longer than that so maybe they kept me in the queue or something?

Still feeling this bitterness... I am happy I got it but no so happy for the overprice...

 

[Combine Harvester]

Scarcity.

and snarky almost non existent communication as a free bonus

Wait and see if you get a shipping notification, if you don’t, you’ll be refunded.

Indeed, what a total Jarrod.
