Honestly. In the last month I have moved forward 110 places in the queue for a 3080 non oc strix and I'm sure the vast majority of them have been cancellations based on the stock thread

I was 1 of those that canceled think I was 236 almost 4 weeks back. I get that covid screwed a lot of this up but even so. I feel really peved at Asus for the lack of info onto why they have such a crap supply. They fobbed me of instead of saying it will be a while.

Nothing worse then sitting in a q for months and getting no info. This ain't a dig at oc BTW. I rang um 5 weeks back and was told I should see the card in Jan 2021.

I was lucky to get my hands on a 3080 trinity.

Nvidia do need to own up they launched with bloody low stock ready togo.its a shame they don't give a care

Have you tried the customer service forum?

Also I'm not against you asking on here but constantly spamming multiple times a day isn't going to happen, just use some discretion :)

Something I really don’t understand is if Gibbo is active on other threads, how hard is it to pay this one a visit? Is he that embarrassed to even reinforce the situation and give at least some explanation on how the situation is going, even if it’s a “we’re trying this, trying that, ramping up stock, not seeing any stock coming in be patient”.
I’m a pretty laid back person, but when I see he’s commenting on a Toyota post and the AMD posts it’s infuriating. Try adding up all the poor souls waiting on orders for 30 series alone, an estimate they easily easily easily equate to millions, this is a big customer base. Where’s the 10 second out of your time?!

MSI Trios just dropped in a very special place for £ 757, gone in minutes but why OCUK sells the same card for £ 829 ? Greed?

You and I don't know how much OCUK had to pay for these cards. We don't know their margin. A shop selling at a lower price may have ordered ten times as many cards as OCUK at a lower original cost, for staged delivery over 12 months. A large high street store would shift way more cards than OCUK through sheer footfall, so could order such volume.
We just don't know, we don't have the information.

Wut? If OCUK go to the factory and say listen mate we have 10000 orders, we have money, factory will give them better price. After all they are the oldest and most established nvidia partner. 30 pounds more on a card times thousand of orders.....you do the math.
