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

[Xyclops]

This whole situation doesn't make sense. No company sets out to alienate customers. I do not believe they are putting them in prebuilds. It is possible that some of the first stock went to staff but wouldn't think there would be many and I consider that to be OK- a perk of the job.

There is something else going on. There has to be.

@Gibbo Inno3d 3080 x3 stock secured yet?

I give it time until 31st January, i have a 2080 super with me from Amazon until that date.
Anyway i would cancel straight.

Meantime i keep looking other sites, i have set stock alert, plus i check often manually, unfortunately no luck so far.

I just think that about 95% of cards coming into the UK are going to competitors with a few crumbs coming to Overclockers. We just backed the wrong horse on this one.

Yeah, I am not sure it is going pre-builds. But does look like it is going somewhere. Shame because it is clear from this forum they are alienating a lot of people by the way they are dealing with it all.

How you can get a single 3080 from competitors if there is no pre-order, also out of stock all the time?

I got one last week after a reccomendation from a member here, theres a few competitors who have no waiting list and a few in stock.

People on this thread should be checking the parent company Casekings' Twitter thread to see what they are up to compared to OCUK

This from 17 hours ago on this weeks cards:

ZOTAC 3090 Trinity 3080 Trinity 3070 Twin Edge 3080 Trinity OC 3070 Twin Edge OC
Gigabyte RTX 3080 Gaming OC 10G RTX 3090 Gaming OC 24G RTX 3080 Master 10G RTX 3090 Master 24G RTX 3070 Gaming OC 8G RTX 3070 Eagle OC 8G
INNO3D 3090 iChill X4 3080 Twin X2 OC
MSI 3090 Ventus 3X 24G OC 3090 Gaming X Trio 24G 3080 Ventus 3X 10G OC 3080 Gaming X Trio 10G
ASUS: 3090 TUF Gaming 24G 3090 TUF Gaming O24G 3080 TUF Gaming O10G 3090 ROG Strix O24G 3080 ROG Strix O10G 3080 ROG Strix 10G 3070 ROG Strix O8G 3070 Dual O8G 3070 TUF O8G
EVGA: 3080 FTW3 Ultra Gaming 3090 FTW3 Ultra Gaming 3080 XC3 Ultra Gaming

I wonder what the range of cards OCUK are shipping this week?

From my own point of view I see Caseking are shipping Inno iChill X4 yet again, something Gibbo told us were 'rarer than gold dust', and I have to wonder whether stock is being diverted to Germany in preference to the UK.

Wow that's super interesting, not seen an update for a couple of days here lol, certainly not buying my Ryzen 5000 here, we will likely experience the same queues / disaster...

 

[J1GS4W]

Good Morning all! Ready for a hopefully good day movement wise for the MSI queues? (or, at least the 3080 Trio one, but hopefully the other cards listed in Gibbo's posts will also be in the same shipment).

I think only tomorrow when we got Email about position queue to know. Anyway, what is your number in the queue for Gaming X? I've ordered the same current 211

 

[Aionard]

I thought France was in total lockdown with everything closed? How are they going to ship it if everything is shut?

It's not that bad, my brother in law is still working so far (flight attendant) and although going forward vast majority of flights are cancelled, post office should be OK still, and you can always order a courier to your house etc. I mean amazon does it, and I don't imagine those companies would be closing down just before Christmas aka reaping time. even if I have to wait a month for lockdown to lift, it's most likely quicker and cheaper than anything happening in here, even if I spring for an international next day delivery since I paid Gbp 640 for the card...

Yeah I'm praying for FE drop today but I've secured evga ftw ultra gaming from France just waiting for shipping date, hopefully this week or next however, really wanted the inno3d x3 for the looks and price.

Unfortunately I don't actually know. Some weirdness with my order means the queue email isn't accurate for me. OC are aware of it and suposidly the MD is tracking it manually and will make sure mine and the few others hit by the same system error get sent out at the correct time... but who knows. I'm expecting to have to call customer service again once the people around me have had theirs shipped to complain they forgot me despite their promises.

I do know that someone who ordered a minute before me was 189 in the latest update, and a minute after is 196, so I have a window (that isn't likely to get in this batch, since large + small maxes at 129, but if lucky very large could be up to 249, so I have a very faint glimmer of hope).

 

[Xerphiel]

@Gibbo are we seriously only going to get updates every couple of days now? A few more words a day likely make the difference between customers avoiding OCUK or not

 

[Adam Pewis]

Just had a shipping email for MSI Ventus 3080, I was 10th in queue.
My time checking this forum is over. Good luck everyone

Not many Ventus arrived by the look of it then.

Good luck and enjoy it......finally.
