Aorus Master / Extreme (3080+3090) Thread

Had a queue update just now for the 3080 Master. 90 --> 87... 6800XT looking better and better tbh.
you think there is not going to be a que system for that card?...im pritty sure that card will get sold out just like the 30 series did. so you will end up waiting longer no doubt.
 
So Aorus UK on Twitter said there was a shipment this week for the 3080 Xtreme and OCUK have managed to get none of that?

I went from 4 to 4.. no change.
Another retailer didn't get a Gigabyte shipment yet either and they are still expecting it for today (says on their website) so I think it will be the same for OCUK so don't jump to conclusions just yet.

It will definitely be sold out quick. I ordered the master days after release. I intend on being as quick as possible on release date, but also having a bit more faith that there will be better supply. Who knows tho. I'll sit on this pre order still. See what happens over the next few weeks.
 
Another week went by, moved 3 position on the 3080 master queue, at this point we already know the velocity and it won't change at all, so we're talking about moving about 15 positions every 2 weeks, it's a pity how gigabyte is dealing with the people who are buying their premium versions of the cards, lesson learned.

This update is for cancellation I believe, as some ahead report no movement.

Yep, I'd expect the premium cards to have some kind of priority as well.
 
Confirmed no movement in queue for 3080 master, i was 34 last week and am 34 again today. As someone else mentioned, a competitor has a post saying they are still waiting on the gigabyte shipment still so odds are OC are also waiting on this weeks shipment.
Also gigaman said somewhat recently that we should expect larger volumes of the cards in the next week or two, being as bulk cards are starting to show up from other manufacturers i would guess that this is accurate.

I honestly think the Xtreme will still be 3-5 a week at best for a couple more weeks, Gigabyte Aorus I have no clue what they have been doing but not what the competition has been doing, getting at least some volume through, last order for this brand I'll ever make, I mean why trust them?

based on historical reasons, I have no reason to believe it'll be different in the future, it's all about history, we gotta learn from our mistakes... Let's try the AMD 6900 XT, but that is not going to be a gigabyte master, even though they are going to make a version for it, I'll avoid it within all that I can.
 
Cards have just started to make there way to people in the world so they do exist and are now in transit. Whether they are coming here imminently or not is anyone's guess. But they still managed to create them before the asus strix 3090 non oc.

Because of the long delays Im actually thinking about a watercooled 6800XT, probably similar money to the 6900XT and Im betting unlike the Ampere cards the 6000 overclocks, certainly to at least 3090 level's, stock beats it in some situations so watching reviews soon.

But yes NEVER AGAIN Gigabyte or Aorus products ever, and will be happy to tell anyone thinking about products in future, and while I speak as one man Im betting Im not alone.
 
Day 68 without a GPU.

Had my update for the 3090 xtreme, 13th to 12th. Guessing someone finally hit the send button on the refund request. I’m holding out so far, I’ve rigged up an elaborate elastic band system to exercise my trigger finger, but its visibly thinner. I’ve found a few activity’s to keep my wrist nimble but it’s taking a strain on other body parts. I made a GPU out of a cardboard box just to fill the void inside my case, hoping it would give me some sort of visual hope. I ran GPUz, it was just habit I couldn’t help it, it was crushing. I found myself considering what COD mobile would look like with ray tracing, my god - I’ve got to keep it together a little longer. I’ve managed to stop moving my mouse and mimicking key presses while watching streamers on you tube, but the need is still there. Maybe I could create a niche video site called game hub, aaagames or fragbang, for those really in need.

Lol!

I have started living out my GPU hopes and dreams through Youtubers who have 4-5 of the same cards each from different manufactures, it's amazing how many faces one person can pull for a Youtube thumbnail looking shocked.

Also swear if they sent less cards to random youtube knobs who sell shizzle the supply problem would be halved.
 
Very nice Ronski, Q do your LianLi GPU cables block the Aorus master display much? I have same cables and awaiting for same card and this has worried me. Why GPU makers are not hiding the GPU connectors at rear or underside where they cannot be seen yet is a mystery!
