Jeps · 13 Apr 2017 at 10:42

Well thats a bit of a **** move on EVGAs part.

CraigN · 13 Apr 2017 at 10:47

EVGA are saying 11/12th May for FTW3, the others will come sooner, I always put a later date just in case of delays etc. Would rather under-promise and over deliver, than let customers down.

Ben @ EVGA said:
Length of the FTW 3 is = 299.72mm

This is around 3cm or 30mm longer than the SC2 card so yes worth checking the measurements.

Ben

Just had to cancel my pre-order, the specs previously said the length was 269mm and a technical support query confirmed this, wish you would put the correct specs on a product page before releasing it for pre order...

Do OcUK still take the money upfront if you pre-order?

Yes.

A month is a long wait to be out of pocket. :/ If it was coming within a week to two I wouldn't have an issue.

Will the price increase in a months time?

I got billed next day delivery as well That sucks even more when it won't be here for a month and it says free delivery on the OC website. Nice email to CS me thinks

It is next day service from point of dispatch, as such delivery charge still stands I am afraid.

Indeed. Well, broken promises it is then. Punishment for wanting to order with OcUK? I'll remember this, remember to be more cynical next time.

V F · 13 Apr 2017 at 12:15

Still no card dimensions. Only have the length so far.

EVGA 1080 launch was laughable at best (3 month waiting time) now anyone buying a EVGA custom 1080Ti just got pwn again! EVGA what happened to you?

Reality|Bites · 13 Apr 2017 at 13:34

So the people who pre ordered with eVGA won't be getting their card on the date stated? 17th april for SC and 1st May for FTW3?

I think it would be for normal stock at retailers. Preorders on evga site still stand for ftw3 1st of may

I don't understand that as the OCuk website clearly says free shipping on 1080 ti cards. Have taken a screen shot and will ask CS.

Here is the link: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/nvidia-geforce

Maybe I have misread something! Thanks anyway

Simon Belmont · 13 Apr 2017 at 16:08

Just checked and it's nearly £80 more here at OCUK then the original preorder at EVGA site. lol

I'm assuming OcUK don't price match?

I haven't been pawned at all, when I pre ordered I knew shipping was May 1st. I would rather wait and have the best cs out there.
