Spot on mate. I managed to get lucky last Friday drop. It is a beautiful object as well as a great GPU, and for £650. It seems ampere cards don’t hard OC well due to hitting power limit, so undervolt a slight OC for rock solid and cool boosts. I came out of strix OC queue at 103 saving around 200 quid, which I’m putting to a 5900x. I’m trying for another fe for my son instead of keeping that unicorn strix.

I came in here to complain about where is my queue update to only remember it’s not Friday. Don’t know why I typed this but thought maybe it would give some one a lol
Daft question probably but when the 6800 xt launch, do you think it will be with actual or mythical stock like NVIDIA. Seriously considering flipping NVIDIA and Asus off permanently.
I wouldn't be bothered with waiting but even when I log into WoW it trolls me with a 'your Gpu is out of date'.....almost mocking my situation....

What time did you order? Mine went in at 23:19 on 17/09/2020 not got an email to say shipped so assume not quite enough to get mine out. But interesting to so you have the Watchdogs code included, was this showing on you order before being shipped?
Neither,
You won’t get it I’m afraid as ocuk are apparently not a part of this promotion
410 probably!
Mine was about 10.06pm and I was 35, mine has shipped too. You must be close now, is there still some more to come in?
I have the code for Nvidia and watchdog, it came on a separate email with the shipping one and yes it was down on the original order receipt email I received as 1x 0 cost watchdog plus Nvidia bundle. So if it was on yours you will probably get it.

Right, I've been waiting for my Gigabyte Gaming OC since September 17th 10.30pm. Minimal change in queue position. Had enough and bagged myself a Gaming X Trio from a competitor. There's no right or wrong in any of this. It's just **** on the part of Nvidia. They just announced early to get ahead of AMD I'm sure. In the meantime we all think it's available when it's not. Out with the RX580 and in with the new.
I bet in the next two weeks all back orders will be fulfilled.

Common habits which are surprisingly bad for your body:
Stressing out over things that are not in your control
Think of it this way, if you stress out over something that you can’t control, the thing you can’t control wont change one bit, however, your mood will, negatively. That is some ****. Sometimes we just need a reminder to focus on the things in our control.
This is your reminder

but now it’s on its way I can blow seven shades of **** out of everything and de-stress faster than with my current card

OK thank you, I was 63 on the last email and I've never had watchdogs show on my order, was still being advertised when I completed the order but assuming it's not going to be included at this point. Looks like there is a few more due soon so will need to see where I am in the queue tomorrow.
that's fine I've been checking my emails all day and only realised it was Thursday this evening! so easily done
That’s a shame
