NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - Technical/General Discussion

Mine said 2-12 weeks but has just changed to awaiting picking

This is normal. Doesn't mean you'll get one, most likely it will sit there until next week until you submit a CS ticket.

Next stores will see stock come in is in two weeks, likely, after Chinese New Year.

Finally got a pre-order in elsewhere. Same place as you I think. It was partly Scan and Visa issues. Such a late pre-order now! Shame. Planning to get a Heatkiler block when pre-orders are taken. Did you say you preordered one? Can't see them anywhere yet...

Edit: I see them now! Not expecting any orders anytime soon!

What a catastrophe! Never happened to me before, getting screwed over like that. I even got a 3090 and 4090 next day last time.

 

[BubbySoup]

3 of these sold, apparently

I'm getting FOMO now, wonder how long until more 5080s are in stock.

Do yourself a favour and wait for the Super. This 5080 seems so weak??

£2999 for the Asus astral 5090 WOW

I got in the preorder queue elsewhere for a whole 300 quid cheaper on that exact model.

Just don’t understand the insane markup here specifically.

OC pre orders on 5090 £300 more than identical card elsewhere that I pre ordered…

OC always upcharge. Haribo ain't free ya know.

 

[varkanoid]

Just laughing at the prices on you know where. Hope OCUK are checking the names of the resellers like last time to cancel their orders.

One place I looked at had the 5080 at rrp and available but unable to add to basket. Then price increased and no stock. Feels like a con to pretend that they had some at rrp

 

[delpy8]

I paid £2700 for the oc model earlier but yeah £3000 is taking the biscuit

Yip just ordered the astral OC for £2700

 

[Monkeyboysteve]

anyone have any experience with other official resellers (namely the official reseller of the FE) and whether they are good or horrific at keeping the ETA for cards? my initial ETA is March 30th for a Palit gamerock. it's now changed to April the 30th. some other cards are May.

Standard OCUK!

 

[VincentHanna]

I'm just about willing to pay just shy of £2000 for an FE

I'm not paying another £500-600 on top of that for an AIB.

What happened to not upgrading for the sake of a few more FPS?

I think Palit has maybe fell behind with supply as other sellers have April/May on their products

My brother managed to pre order a 5090 for a smidge over 2K
He's happy
