Kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place though as you cant seem to pre-order any other cards from anywhere

On the bright side, it seems like Asus are at least trying to send OCUK what they can, they seem to be one of the more consistent suppliers so far.

Its the EOL issue with some of the cards added to Gibbos projections, which are not positive.
Which card and what was your last queue position?

Asus Strix 3080 OC, last email was on 21/05 with position 321. Down from about 1050ish when i first order so 321 seems low now!

How come these are already at EOL? Because of the Ti release or the LHR variants?

I feel the only way to get my hands on a strix card to complete my strix build is to buy one off eBay for double the price I’m 11 in the queue
That queue position is higher than the number that's been shipped so I'd definitely look around for alternative.

It's not often I get called out for it but every once in a while someone will spot it.I can spot a wrong un. Going to block you now
MSI and Zotac each cancelled one of their 3080 SKUs a while ago. Yes I think the changeover to the LHR versions is causing issues. Which cards will continue as LHR versions etc

i think best thing is keep my 3080 pre-order and try and find a 3080Ti as and when they come in stock i think

I’m just gonna wait and see what happens if my order gets cancelled I’ll just buy a strix on eBay as last resort.
Without proper warranty?

yeah u have no chance, 452 youll be there forever
You have to consider how much that movement is down to cancellation and how, if someone has been stubborn enough to stick around so far, they are unlikely to willingly leave the queue now.
So, ignoring the apparent supply drop off and threats of discontinuation, if we were to somehow get the same number of cards over the next nine months as we had over the last nine months (269 pcs), you still wouldn't receive your card. It's a bleak situation but that's where we are.
genuine question, do Asus not require copy of original invoice any longer? I know they did when I last bothered to register something.
This and now factor in that the 3080 production will no doubt get somewhat split between 3080 and 3080Ti, the numbers could be even smaller, though technically I believe the 3080Ti's are 3090's with half the ram and a cluster cut off but still the board partners will always focus on more profitable SKU's, but saying that right now they probably make more money on 3080 considering how massively all the AIB's pumped the 3080 pricing up since launch.
Probably about a month now - not too long. Hoping for a card before the end of summer
