Just asking as the general level of updates is and always has been **** poor, I think you need to start telling people how many items are in a shipment becuase if people are moving back spaces in a queue ... and i dont know how well that is substantiated no one has had any expectations set yet. From my perspetive if your not getting any info .. your speaking to the wrong people or your contacts are not the right ones to be using in this instance.

I'm not here to be criticised for my spelling I'm here to find out about my order that I placed 15 minutes after it was released.
If I was being completely honest with myself its not life or death that I get a new card right now. I've got a 1080 at the moment which is working away. Like most of us though I want a new card to do me through the winter months ahead for games like Cyberpunk and Flight Simulator 2020. Both of which warrant a new graphics card upgrade. I've got a 4K monitor but game at 1440p (and thats pushing my 1080 as it is) I'd like to game at 4K. I know the 3070 will struggle at 4K where as of course the 3080 won't.

the updates are very vague compared to competitors having full tables with exact numbers and dates. thats why people are getting annoyed

High five. Evga rocks
Detailed updates or not changes little when there is very limited stock out there.
I don’t disagree that OC have done a poor job here (Gibbo should lose his job really - reputation has been ruined by his actions in particular) but posting everyday chasing for updates when there just isn’t much to update on is pointless. A queue update is sent to every person with a pre-order and that’s about as much as should be necessary.

No that's where your wrong . Scotti b in the little time he was talking yesturday had already said they are recieving MSI cards ect . That info was known by oc and gibbo before he come into the thread . If that was given along with other info that they get then you wouldnt have people asking . It also shows care to customers that have parted money . And while I don't believe everything Scotti said he's atleased tried .

this exactly. in the few hours talking to scotti we've had more information than the multiple months that gibbo has been updating the other thread. and scotti has shown that there is a place that they have information stored on more specific numbers on certain models. it just seems that gibbo doesnt want to give the details

Yep but is the reason I don't believe him on everything though . I still believe retail cards are going into pre builds and he couldn't state how many cards they are getting. I do appreciate him coming in though
Not sure how much clearer Scotti could be on that point, retail boxed product is 100% going into pre-builds because that is what the manufacturers are supplying to the SI channel.
... but that is product that was allocated as SI stock and where he has received a surplus of SI stock he has been releasing it to the retail channel to help with the queues.
I suspect that a lot of the confusion relating to comments from manufacturing reps here has been them not distinguishing between retail and SI channel when commenting on expected deliveries to OCUK.

No he made that clear . What makes me think cards are going into pre builds or out the back door Is the ok amounts turning to 20 ect . That still has not been cleared up I don't imagine it will be. I also find it hard to believe that a company don't know how many cards they are getting untill the crates are open .
