The Sapphire XTX MBA card oversold by 200-300 units. So you'll be waiting!

I hope its a decent email and not a generic one , i need to know rough wait time and my place in the list so i can make an informed choice , lets face it 1.3k is not a small amount of money to have paid out for something you may not have for a month so a bit of extra care from customer service would be nice
Pics or it never happened lol.

7900XT's are still in-stock I see, and I did ponder after reviews whether or not to hit that buy button.
Then I asked myself the usual question that gets repeated daily... is my current GPU struggling with games? The answer... no, plays everything maxed at 1440p without breaking the sag bracket. Not many games out there pushing my 6800 XT to its knees right now, I'll hold off perhaps till next gen and eek out that value left in it.

My GTX 980 is struggling quite a bit with the 1440p monitor I got last year, so it's really time I moved on. I've just assembled a new system, except the GPU, so since it's looking like I wouldn't get mine till after Christmas I think I'll have to make alternate arrangements.

Someone trying to scalp a 7900xt on the that website I only did a search and browse to see what was there and just had an email from it saying they were now accepting offers! Its £300 or so over cost.

if it's AIB Gibbo said it might be January/Feb.
The reason we are not sending the email right now is because I was up until midnight speaking to AMD USA, then up at 8am this morning speaking to Powercolor, Sapphire and all other AIB's in Far East and now working with AMD UK as we speak.
We hope that in a few hours time the relevant parties will feedback to myself and provide some realistic ETA's or potential solutions.
OcUK is AMD's no.1 UK GPU partner, the fact AMD USA reached out to me personally to congratulate our sales performance and assuring me that OcUK is at the top of their thoughts and that their UK guys will ensure OcUK and its customers are looked after, so they know the score, I have worked with AMD for over twenty years, we can be assured solutions will come.
But guys, and I don't mean to upset anyone, be realistic things do not happen out of hours, they do not happen in an instant, it does take time and that is why the email shall be sent this evening and it may not be conclusive because it can take days for companies the size of AMD and its partners to offer a solution or ETA, nothing is a five minute job like we all wish it could be.
Please stop posting order numbers as everyone is in the same situation:
Sapphire & Powercolor MBA cards we await a solution as per above, we doubt anyone will get a card before Christmas, so let me put that out there right now, so if you after a card for the holidays or have no GPU you need to be selecting another GPU now, but we do hope any solution provided to us will be a solution for this month or start of January.
Custom cards, as pointed out VERY CLEARLY in the opening post of this forum, the ETA was and always was end of January, some of you may get one sooner but again as I put in the OP, you were all warned of a long wait, so please don't be complaining, it was made crystal clear and I am pushing just has hard to get custom cards as quickly as possible as I am MBA cards.
All pre-orders will be given priority and no cards will be placed on sale until pre-orders are dealt with, I assure you this!
The Sapphire 7900 XT model is still in stock, we have around 150pc left so anyone who wants an AMD card before Christmas, buy a Sapphire 7900 XT or an Asrock 6900 XT OCF!
NO ONE IS GETTING AN AMD 7900 XTX PRE-CHRISTMAS, THE CHANCE IS UNDER 1% SO IF YOU NEED PRE XMAS PLEASE SELECT ANOTHER CARD OR A REFUND, OUR SALES/CS TEAM CAN HAPPILY ASSIST YOU AND WE DO APOLOGISE.

Considered a 6700XT as a replacement? Getting cheaper but old tech as everyone will state. Wallet check.

Well my XTX has been delayed due to an unexpected event in my area. Wouldn't of been able to use it tonight anyway so hopefully it turns up tomorrow now when I will be able to have a play with it. Be nice to replace my Red devil Vega 64 that has coil whine you can hear from the next street over.
@Gibbo I know you are not doing this out of the goodness of your heart and OCUK is trying to make a profit but your communication and honesty with your customers is excemplary. No one does customer service like this other than OCUK.
My 7900xtx should arrive in next hour. Come on DPD Dave.

I'm running an RX580 still, I kid you not, so my upgrade is justified, plus I don't mind living off beans and toast for a while to pay for my card
Happening a lot with DPD recently, I suspect two reasons, extremely busy and some of the snow that has impacted certain areas can unfortunately still impact areas with no snow.
i hope you have a bag of haribo ready for the driver

Royal Mail strikes seems to be having an impact here.

Yeah I am not bothered about it in the slightest, first delay I have ever had with them. Everything I have ordered either for work or personal has been delayed the last week or so, so it wasn't a surprise.
I fight for my customers 24/7 if I did not need to sleep, some may not believe it but I do and I also feel no competitor even comes close to our service overall, tell me one other single company where you can talk to someone around the clock, get updates and insight to the business. We are literally unique and I will never stop fighting guys, just remember things don't happen so quick when dealing with such huge companies.

RX 580 was a true fine wine card, such insane gains in performance over its lifespan.
It can still play Forza Horizon 4 medium details, Forza 5 at medium also just hitting 60fps, I didn't really need the upgrade as I ain't a hardcore gamer these days, but thought what the hell, I've worked hard this year, so a wee xmas present to myselfI fight for my customers 24/7 if I did not need to sleep, some may not believe it but I do and I also feel no competitor even comes close to our service overall, tell me one other single company where you can talk to someone around the clock, get updates and insight to the business.
