Don't get your hopes up too much, it's a complete joke how badly OcUK are handling this in terms of giving us info. Even if its just acknowledgement that the issue is there and they're doing all they can. I know Gibbo posted in the other thread but come on, surely someone who isn't on the other side of the world knows something?
 
If you're not looking to get them from overclockers they are available elsewhere.
I checked about 10 minutes ago and the EVGA SC reference is still in stock.

To be fair, if they are not being provided solid ETA's themselves, then providing us flimsy ETA's would just irritate us in the long run. Sometimes no information is better than incorrect information.

But don't get me wrong, i ordered a hybrid on release and still haven't seen or heard of a ETA, but EVGA cards are pretty high in demand.

But yeah i see your point and understand it, hopefully we get some news soon:)
 
Sock horror announcement, and I know these are the ocuk forums, but there are other retailers out there you know. I don't get the blinkered loyalty some people have with buying *everything* from here sometimes

These were available for a very short time a couple of days go from anoth€r r€tail€r. (according to EVGA forums). I have 'auto notify' selected for that particular item but never heard nothing from them, yet available, they were.....apparently.

Seems that he who sits and obsessively refreshes the order page, wins....unless he doesn't win, and just drives himself mental instead.
 
Thing is, I'd rather not be gambling on other sites for my ACX 2.0 980ti.

I just want a solid "Sadly, we are unable to receive a solid date of shipment at this time". Instead of the typical bull we are being fed at the moment "hopefully today!"....

Bought from here cause the EVGA stock was ETA'd at 3rd June, thinking I'd have it for the weekend to finally get a GPU back in my PC. Now wishing I'd gone for a US / international site on Monday as it would've got here in time for shipping.

Taking a gamble on an MSI card at a different retailer right now, just praying it comes in stock for Saturday delivery.

It's not just a case of buying exclusively or loyally from here, I bought from here because they were the first to list the 980 Ti series cards and have what I thought looked realistic ETA times.

Because I used my credit card to pay for mine it's also not a simple case of cancelling the order and going elsewhere now anyway as the purchase is itemised on my card even if it is cancelled, Im close the max limit of my credit card at the moment. Having spent about £1500 on bits from here and elsewhere for a second build I am not in a position to cancel and order elsewhere unless I use my debit card again, but with other bills and car insurance etc coming out thats not really feasible either.

So Im hoping OCUK can deliver on what they advertised as ETA for the 3rd, even if that is a rough time guess, I would rather they didnt advertise that at all as it kind of gives off false promise and expectancy - especially when I believe Gibbo said late last week there was stock in the warehouse, yet as we have found if there was stock it was reported to be less than 5%, not good at all. Very dissapointed, especially due to the lack of information. So hoping for some news that orders will be coming for tomorrow or Sunday, but its looking very unlikely.
 
The problem is is that Gibbo is away at Computex at the moment, and it seems whoever is looking after the graphics card section isn't doing a great job of communicating any information!! As you know, Gibbo would be on here a fair bit during work hours but due to the time difference he has to sleep sometime :D
