How do i get onto the waiting list! Ive been checking it everyday for about a month and a half,Every time i add to basket it just says there is nothing in the basket, also been checking a site that tells you places with stock and OCUK are always the only ones to have stock but when i go to OC theres nothing!! I have built my first pc and had to buy an old 1060 from gumtree because i didn't do enough research, and found out that the processor i picked does not have intergrated graphics, so i got the 1060 (for £230) just to make sure i had everything put together right and that all the parts i bought where working! Now im stuck between a rock and a hard place with the only way out seems to be by jumping into the black hole of the internet trying to get on a waiting list for a card! I’d settle for the waiting list, at least i wouldnt have to keep checking 10 different sites 3-4 times a day looking for one!

I’m away to have a drink!!
Ah thats right the pubs arent open either!
maybe theres a waiting list for them too!!
Down to the offy it is then!!

Cheers

Finally cancelled my order after 6 months. Ordered the Ventus 1 hour after release and still only 88 in the queue. Managed to bag a Suprim X through pure luck from somewhere else. Can't say it's been a fun journey but I wish everyone luck in their hunt for a 3080.

Damn that sucks, I got an order in for the ventus 20mins after release and got the card 4 days later.

Enjoy the Suprim though as far as I'm aware it's a far better card than the ventus.

You can’t get on a waiting list at the moment. You just have to wait for stock to increase in my opinion you should sell the 1060 and get a rtx2000 series because you’ll most likely be waiting a year or so unless you buy a scalped card

We have a separate list of people waiting for replacement cards and they are given the first allocation when cards arrive.

Good question - what kind of failure rates have you had so far? Any particular models have a greater rate? And is it about the same as previous generations?

I know it's insane to be 943 in queue and remain waiting since Oct, but really hoping to get the card. Perhaps OVERCLOCKERS should publish mental health support information as a pre-order warning ;)

Mar 19 - *** waiting for the weekly email

If the rumours are valid and the 3080TI is released next month, then I will definitely try like 1000's of others; but just saying that after waiting so long that it will be insult to injury if the same situation occurs again.
That's Really strange
I got my Que Number the same day and I'm way below.
I was 1144, on Oct 23
With 541, 19 March

How do OverClockers put people in ques? Is it time base or random?

Just wanted to say thank you from the perspective of an Irish customer, doing your best to refund us VAT so we don't have to pay it twice etc. I'm sorry some other ROI customer a few pages back doesn't understand import fees and that they are unavoidable...
Got a queue update yesterday for this first time this year so I assume you guys are moving couriers? Can I ask does this mean I should be getting the VAT refund? If Gigabyte were half as productive as you guys I'd have my Eagle by now, so thank you.
