I would’ve but unfortunately there are none. Only reason I would go with strix is because it is top 3 3080 plus my monitor is strix tooLooks good, enjoy! Thought you would have gone for a 3080 Strix

Lol, don’t worry I play other games too. Got call of duty warzone, apex legends, and some other games like far cry 6 and assassins creed valhalla which came free with the CPU and motherboardCongratz and nice system. However someone has to take a dig at you for using it to play Fortnite...
Congrats on the FE - it's a good investment that's worth 300% more than you paid for it (assuming you paid MSRP)
I think most of us posting are still waiting (I'm doing my best to get the thread to 2000 pages
), but I'm at the stage of jumping the other way and getting a 3090 at ££££ then having to mine to make up the cost difference. 
After all it's only money... waah

no I actually received the card late March, I just built it recently. They sent me an email saying they sipped mine and it came within 2 days! Gigabyte seem to be pretty good, more shipments of gigabyte cards. Also my card is gigabyte vision 3080 which is not on there
@StrixGaming thank you for anwser mate!

You cant go wrong with 3090 for mining.
Im using my 3080Fe for mining when I'm not gaming. Im getting around £6 a day on mining. Thats around £180+ a month. Not a bad investment
Had my cancellation confirmation but not the refund yet - although I'm not expecting to see it for a couple more days yet. I imagine 570+ refunds is quite the chunk to have to do at once so it's probably gonna take some time as they said.
Didn’t you already have a 3090 though?
I'm doing a trickle on my 2060 when I'm not using it, bit of a reluctant conclusion it's probably the only way of getting a 30 series before we get to the order anniversary in September. Now I want a beefier PSU to be sure it can handle it and they're all out of stock too...!
I think you can, when you discover your card has been fried .
You may want to check your payment method, I received the "refund" email but have just received this:
Apologies once again for the dissapointment caused by the recent announcement made by MSI regarding the card you ordered.
Following on from the last email we sent you on 16/04 regarding the 3080 not being available a refund will be required on this item as there is no vendor support for a replacement. However depending on your payment type used, or whether or not you have other items on your order the outcome may be a little more complicated. Further details below:
1) If your order was placed via PayPal and is over 6 months old you will need to call us directly using the contact number below and provide a card number for us to refund back too, as PayPal wont allow us to process a refund back on an order over 6 months old.
2) If your order contains other items please contact us via webnote or phone to confirm if you still want the other items or a full refund processing.
3) If the order is on finance and contains other items and the order total drops by more than 50% when the GPU is remoted then the order will need to be cancelled fully.
I paid via PayPal so despite being told I've been refunded, I haven't actually. This whole thing is just ******.Following on from the last email we sent you on 16/04 regarding the 3080 not being available a refund will be required on this item as there is no vendor support for a replacement.

Sorry to hear this, as it's a big amount of money so understand your gutted.
OP is still going get it back, just on a card.
