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

No. 104. Definitely in the nail biting zone. Would be helpful if OC would be straight with everyone and just publish numbers rather than vague statements about “large, medium, small, ok, very large etc”.

Gah, that sounds worse. I just have a faint flutter of hope that somehow the large + small batches ended up more than those combined numbers and hits the top end of very large. I know it isn't likely I'll get one this time. But you are right on that edge of almost certainly going to just get in this batch, but might just miss it by one or two cards. Good luck to you! (and don't worry about the man with a bad fake mustashe standing outside your house for the next few days. It definately isn't me trying to intercept your delivery).
 
I'm getting fed up with this rules about no name competitors
Not giving numbers
Poor communication
No shipments
I may cancel aswell
Illl try the amd in diferent place if I don't have a short cue I'll cancel both and I will continue with my 970 one more year with pain.
I may save that money for future needs

The competitors rule has been in place since the start, you can be fed up all you like but it's OCUK's forums and they can have whatever rules they like.
 
I wonder what **** show will be instore tomorrow with the new AMD CPU.
I'm thinking about cancelling the TUF non OC and using the money to get a new CPU + MB and then looking into GPU again next year.
 
Whats the story with 3080 Ventus cards? Sitting at 71 here and Gibbo said there was an "Ok" and then changed it to a "small " amount.

They literally have not had a 3080 Ventus in about a month like.
 
No chance here I dont think, but other outlets haven't got as big of a backlog to clear.
Ouch okay, I’ll keep having a look around then. The 3080 is weird when I was having trouble getting a switch they at least came in and out of stock quite often but this I don’t even see them up for a split second. It’s ridiculous to still be filling day 1 back orders almost 8 weeks since the launch :D Nvidia laughing all the way to the bank I think

I think they are more likely crying, imagine how many they would have sold if they had cards to sell. Now they have got AMD to compete with.
 
I'll give it until tomorrow. Going to try and bag a Ryzen 5000 if that happens that'll scratch the itch and I'll be cancelling my Eagle 3080 order.

I don't want to go in too hard on OCUK but I will say, after this, they won't be my go to. Only out of necessity will I shop OCUK again.

37th for an Eagle and really can't be arsed anymore. What a **** show - all involved should be criticised from manufacture to reseller.

Good plan if you can get one..... with no eagle stock and the pin problems I think you are right.
 
As someone in the "not likely to get one this batch, but also can't completely rule it out" region of an MSI queue I keep getting email notifications, excitedly check, just to see its another "you can still buy from our online store during lockdown 2.0" advert from a random site I haven't used in years... Gah, can people just start getting the emails shipping emails so I can be sure I'm not going to be lucky this time!

Same here, and since I'm in double digits, I know I'm covered by this delivery. I just really want my card tomorrow!

This issue has been playing on my mind and the excitment of buying a new card has fully worn away so just left thinking... why am I bothering with it.

See what tomorrow brings then I'm out! My best to all carrying on with the fight. I hope you get what you paid for eventually.
