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

Hello, I ordered an ASUS OC 3080 on Sunday for pre-order I am yet to receive an email stating queue position. I signed up for Discord notification and could have bought a Gigabyte 3080 today from the notification. Honestly wanted to ask would it be worth hanging around for pre-order or cancel and take your chances with notification? Only reason I ordered an Asus was the reviews had the OC at 1850 MHz and the Gigabyte etc had problems advice greatly appreciated. Plus how long has people waited to get refunded thanks
 
I pretty much expecting AMD launch gonna be far worse. AMD do not produce GPU in same volume as Nvidia and hype is real
neither produce GPUs they've only design them and their contractors producing them. AMD is on better possition as TSMC's 7nm has far more better yields. Will see after launch.

my advise you to keep your preorder until you can buy from notifications, whichever's first. All 3080s have similar performance, max 10 FPS difference across whole range so if have the opportunity grab other cards. the ony difference is noise and temps. that's my opinion. I applied for a refund last Friday (for one of my cards) and got it on Monday, 1 working day then. they state that refunds are processed 1-2 working days. hope that helps
 
So I just had a chat with someone from Nvidia on their web chat. The lady said that OC is RtX representative and I should speak with them in regards with the code, they should be part of this promotion
.. anyway at least I can use the card tomorrow.
Yes nvidia told me the same. Then ocuk tell people they are not participating in the promotion and the next thing we hear is that somebody is being offered a COD code for a lost gpu. Now ocuk could be paying for this code out of their own pocket. Who thinks thats the case? lol

It seems to me like ocuk could possibly have COD codes and be using them to appease and "compensate" wronged customers that kick up enough of a fuss. I could be wrong but does seem very odd to me and wouldn't surprise me at all tbh

maybe they're sticking them on G2A or similar lol. Wouldn't surprise me with how money-hungry and greedy they've been everywhere else in the 30 series launch

Emails are every Friday, so you won’t get one until then.
 
I'll be cancelling tomorrow, was testing the Trio OC and it's great apart from a few bent fins at the rear*.

*card was sealed, probably happened in transit but straightened them & cooling is fine

Position 22 Trinity (non OC) booking out. Wish you people the very best.
 
That’s good to know. Coil sound?

I plan to put a water block on hence why I don’t want to pay for an ott cooler I won’t use

That plan might have a stumbling block, you'll be paying a lot more for the FE waterblock if you go with EKWB. I don't know what The other brands are offering but EK is super expensive.
