This one is still up

Don't know if intentional?

Was on the fence during the initial announcement out of excitement, but i refrained again. I hope AIBs deliver!

Thanks for the efforts OC team!

I think my upgrade is going to happen in the winter. Am waiting to see how these budget lines turn out.

Wise decision.

It was posted on HUKD - probably increased the traffic quite a lot.

would any of these be a worthwhile upgrade from 2060super or waste of time?

riz1337 · 27 Jul 2021 at 22:07

Can finally stop stressing about looking for a GPU holy **** it's been a while since I had a good one, never selling my GPU before I get the new one in hand again
dont recommend 0/10 experience

2060s to 3060, definitely not.

2060s to 3060ti, maybe if the price is right, and you get a good return on selling. But still a bit iffy at current prices imo.

Out of curiosity, those who bought said Zotac card. They will still receive them? Just whenever the stock comes in.
Obviously, I bought one or I wouldn't be asking. Just bit of peace of mind is all

Thanks

Overclockers have already stated what the score is. The demand is just too high to control. Non forum members just diving in and others sharing the deals adds to the demand.

OC were very good and delivered 3080s that were pre ordered last year despite losing money on each card. Preorder price was lower than current cost.

So you or OC just won't know until they get their stock in.

Yes of course I pulled the ability to order down as they were selling way to fast and we don’t want to risk overselling, so you will get one.

Ok, that's wonderful, I was just a bit confused by the listing is all. I checked sort of when my mate sent me a link and at that time it was "in stock" as a fully purchasable buy it now kinda thing. Then when I bought it was pre-order. But I've bought stuff from overclockers before so I trust you guys. Well, now I'm just happy I bought one.
Thanks

LHR, surprised there is big demand for them, gamers defiantly bagging these.

Demand is still insane across the board, when the prices become even close to reasonable it goes absolutely bonkers, we did not even promote the products. If left unchecked its still easy to sell 1000's upon 1000's of cards.

Basically you have the huge wave of gamers that were looking to upgrade that now can get hold of a good GPU, you have basically almost a years worth and more to come wave that wanted to buy end of last year.

What I learnt from this, buy the flagship on release, I am gonna ignore everyone that says why buy the flagship etc... yammer yammer, I will expect all new releases at the high end to have a huge amount of demand from now on.

Even the Elgato mic arms that are newly announced are sold out.

Yeah anyone who brought a 3080 on release is laughing.

Graywolf · 28 Jul 2021 at 18:50

All sold out but waiting to get a 3070 or 3080

Hi there

This is a heads up guys, the pre sales are going absolutely crazy on these deals, 500+ cards pre sold already, as such we may pull the ability to pre order tomorrow to avoid any crazy back order situation as we don't want a repeat of the 3080 situation.

As such if your a forum member reading this and considering a card, get your order in ASAP, because soon I may have to remove the ability to pre order to play it safe until stock lands as though I have ordered around 5000 cards, there is no guarantee that 5000 will be delivered, yep that is the true reality and uncertainty of dealing with the AIB's at present it is hard to get them to actually ship volumes of stock, does not make the job easy.

So if your on the fence, get your order in, as I will probably play it safe and potentially remove pre orders tomorrow until I have confirmation of exact amounts shipped as we don't want any back orders waiting for weeks let alone months.

So all of the pre-orders from the first day will have their orders

Gibbo said:
If all goes well we expect the stock to land in around two weeks time.

so if you pre-ordered you're guaranteed to have a gpu from that exact stock or is it a possibility that you might have to wait for another restock

The days of the PC community saying, just wait, there be something around the corner is over, and to be honest its also the worst thing about the PC space right now, on a forum where someone told the person asking for advice, you should wait 6 months to a year on a CPU recently, I just flipped.
