ARCHIVE - *** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 SERIES STOCK SITUATION *** - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION

[LonelyDriver]

dude pls take that gamepad out of sight its an offence to PC gaming

I still use a wired 360 controller.

So, I'm confused...
Which of the queues is now the huge one? The TUF or the TUF OC?

 

[peds]

Officially cancelled my AORUS Master preorder if anyone is waiting for one, in favour of keeping the Vision preorder as I suspect I'm higher up that list...Note, I didn't queue swap, had two orders and cancelled one.

OcUK cancelled my Vision for me due to having 2 orders. Interesting that they have not done this to everyone yet. I have had to now cancel my ASUS TUF and reorder Vision from the back of the queue. Not impressed.

Any news of the kfa2 or did the ship sink on transit?
As the only UK supplier would have thought at least one shipment would have shown up by now.

Probably the same ship carrying the Inno cards - same story there too.

I got told the regular Tuf queue is by far the largest yesterday. There's no way the OC version is bigger.

I'm developing a rash at the mere thought, need anti-histamine and Jack Daniels to calm the tension

 

[BigBANGtheory]

i think january to clear backlog

maybe who know, tbh if you are waiting that long you have to question the sense of a 3080 order given RDNA2 and a 20GB variant of the 3080 (wont be cheap but still)

My PSU supports 2 x PCIe cables which both have a daisy chain (so 4 PCIe in total) so I used 1 cable for 2 inputs and another cable for the third! ideally i would have 3 cables for 3 inputs but unless i buy an new PSU I cant! L

yeah same as mine. Good to know that definitely works fine then.

mods are deleting posts left and right, but, we cant have a simple update on whether there is more 3080 cards coming or not . as simple as that. Just a basic update is better than silence. OCUK worried that bad news = more cancellations? there will be cancellations either way ! and much more of them if there is no news...

Take a chill pill.

There’s a global pandemic going on, so manufacturers aren’t exactly working to full capacity. Couple that with an unprecedented demand and you’ve got a lot of demand but very little supply.

OcUK are taking pre-orders but make no guarantees on delivery date. Who’s to say that ordering today won’t mean you’ll get a card at Christmas? I ordered a webcam at the beginning of the COVID lockdown and was given no update on the status until it shipped.

The only way anyone is going to know what’s happening with their order is to contact the shop. If they can’t give you an update then I’d hazard a guess that they themselves don’t know, but it isn’t some conspiracy.

The mod team are unpaid volunteers that aren’t employed by OcUK. We are simply here to enforce the rules you agreed to when signing up. If you want to go blabbing about things on Twitter then that’s your perogative but take a minute to think about this logically...

...you’re whining about stock availability of one of the most in-demand items in tech at the moment. No amount of stomping or shouting is going to change anything but there are still individuals out there going to work in full PPE washing their hands 1000 times a day who would love to hear you beat them down for their efforts.

Agh, damn it! I ordered at 17:07, so if peeps have been queue jumping I've got a long wait. Well, I knew I had a long wait anyways, but now I have a feeling it'll be even longer

 

[Del-Dredd]

Obviously CS telling different stories if one say TUF OC is twice size of others today and another says Normal TUF Twice size 2 days ago, unless of course a big load of swaps gone on.

At this point I should point out the majority of the games I play relate to cars and rollerblading so the controller is actually appropriate here. I do prefer good old keyboard and mouse when they are suitable.

 

[Monty16v]

Also, this is where they post card updates, because if it was in the current thread it'd get buried in 3 seconds: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/foru...deliveries-how-to-cancel-your-order.18899277/

Well several forum members reported getting Palits dispatched today from OCUK
Don't see any mention of them on the "official thread"

LOL It's mainly for GTA and pinball games. I'll be building a pinball cabinet soon to hold one of my ultrawides so won't be using the gamepad much longer.

 

[BigBANGtheory]

I know - crazy right? Mine was placed at 14:19 too, and shipped at 16:20 today. Only I’m going to have to return mine I think got 2 showing up tomorrow, 1 from competitor and 1 from OCUK

yeah that makes you a.... risk adverse customer. I get it I do but that behaviour is lets put it politely a 'me first' attitude, it doesn't help the situation and even if your return is cycled back into the stock pool it takes time and effort to process that

Who knows? Maybe there's confusion between the different models of card?

Also even more idiots having house parties, not social distancing and spreading the disease to all and sundry, hence all the local lockdowns etc.

Take a pill and relax yourself.

good lad, and good answer

 

[Yannage]

For everyone who's expecting an RTX 3090 Gaming X Trio this Friday - what are the odds that we actually receive them?

not 3090 but 3080. Given that stock was available until recently and now says sold out, I think fairly likely but I guess we will find out tomorrow.

Exactly, a great update thread it is not, had some Ventus dispatched yesterday, no update about those either.
