Guessing some sort of embargo by AMD. Not just OCUK that haven't listed yet...
Either that or they don't want the launch day price hikes to be as obvious this time.

Hasn't even been a 'wink' thread...
So ridiculous - its like they count on all the day 1 guinea pigs, which is spose is fair play given the fact they will all likely sell out anyway.Hardware Unboxed also confirmed that review come on release day, poor show AMD.
Where and what time will the 6800XT be for sale in the UK tomorrow? Minimal information about it. Do OCUK have stock ready for tomorrow?

You got to add the delivery from factory to port, delivery to the warehouse, delivery to vendor, then delivery to customer.
Also, for initial shipping it is often done by airfreight, otherwise you are looking at 4-6 weeks from China by ses. Even just the loading and loading can take a week each
Genuine laugh from me. It does feel a bit like with this release strategy people don't have time to really check 5 retailers, they pick one and are desperate to get a card so they can charge anything.
Have to say, building a new PC should be pleasurable/exciting but 2020 has killed that too - literally have to battle to get GPUs and CPUs.
Do we have an exact time on when it will be available tomorrow? i would like to try my luck and purchase as soon as it comes out. thanks
Wait for the partner cards in a week or so, by all accounts they will be decent stock supply for those going forwards
They won’t stay at that price though just like NVIDIA cards. One minute later they would all be stocked on EBay at thrice the prices.
So are only AMD reference cards out tomorrow or AIB cards too?
