My friend ordered an MSI Ventus from OcUK on the 23rd and recieved it yesterday :confused:

I wonder if when a customer orders the MSI Ventus at £650, they would then have to wait for a batch of '£650' Ventus's while those who ordered the more expensive batches later will get them as they arrive. I dont see why your friend would get the card sooner than those of us who ordered on the 17th.

Had an update regarding my Gigabyte order from a competitor. They are receiving their shipment for these cards at 20:00 this evening. From there, they will know the quantity and whether or not they can fulfil my order (44th in the queue - ordered at 14:13 17/09/20). They are talking like they will only get 30 in stock today, but aren't willing to release exact figures yet. I wonder why everything is such hush, hush and under NDA?

That is absolutely bs, Retailers know in advance how many cards they should expect. It isn't random, you place an order for a particular ITEM and they will let you know if they can fulfill it or not, they use a "guide" for that. MAYBE the customer support for marketing doesn't have a clue.

How does this happen?

Because it is? They aren’t allowed to discuss specific stock levels.

But why? It makes no sense at all?!

Retailers are currently being bombarded with tweets, emails, live chat requests, and phone calls! Which could all be significantly reduced if they were to release information such as: On day X we are getting X amount of cards, you are X in the queue. The next shipment is on X day where we expect to get X cards. Please check our website for further updates and details. But instead, they are releasing very little, thus creating hype and increasing it significantly. Online auction prices for the 3080s were £800 last week, they are £1100 minimum now.

That would remove the need for a queue system or the constant bombardment and influx of questions.

He's got no reason to lie, I was speccing him a new build and told him to get a 3080, but he'd be in for a long wait.

I'm in the queue for an Eagle so I'm a bit miffed as well.
 
The problem is, all the retailers have employed the same company to produce a queue system. They are all in a queue for the queue system. OCUK are currently 1000 in the queue system for thier queue system to be released and are waiting for an update to update us about our queue positions based on their queue position in the queue system, waiting for their own queue system. Simple.

Ok, that's a big WHAT THE ****.

Are you sure he ordered from OCuk and not some other place? Not that I don't believe you, but if this is true then OverclockersUK is really ******* outside the toilet now.

Yeah I had it at 3800Mhz at some point but lowered it to 3733Mhz and tighten the sub timings more. I have around 63.5ns latency.
