*** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 SERIES STOCK SITUATION - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION ***

[LostPenguins]

Thanks fellow Gigabyte Gaming OC buyer.

Cheers

Fingers crossed we'll both be in the next shipment!

If they did get any this week it will have been a pitiful amount!

Is 6 months a realistic time for 700+ then! Is this inside info or is that you exaggerating.

I’m pretty sure it’s an exaggeration. He knows about deliveries as well as we do.
I mean, he may not be wrong though. Fingers crossed he is for the people that high.

That card is listed as "ordered" for their prebuilts too, so they definitely don't currently have any

It is really great to see first 5/5 review of asus TUF card on OC UK website. Congratulation to whoever got it. Queue for this card is not moving, like at all.

Yeah, well I'm in that 700+ and was ready on site from 1:30pm on 17th. I did give up about 4pm and came back at 5:30 to get my order in.
Think I was pretty unlucky and picked the wrong card choice

Same. I didn’t get on till 4:53 and that was me constantly trying from 2. I’m 153rd in the queue for a TUF non oc. Luckily it wasn’t a popular card at the start. Orders went way up after 5.
Not sure if that was due to that specific page not loading for most people or due to people seeing the reviews.

Very strange. Just looked at the pre built that comes with a gigabyte 3080 and it says all item in the build are in stock

 

[DexterMorgan]

Any updates on shipments of tuf 3080 non OC?

Seems to be in stock for the watercooled prebuilts, but not air cooled

I will attempt to pre-order one of the new RX 6900's if still no luck with a 3080 FE or my TUF OC pre-order Waiting 17 weeks sucks.
This situation is very dire and I guess if the 6900 is in supply and as good as a 3080, I'd need a new FreeSync monitor, too!

 

[Bazz21uk]

Pretty sure they can't even list a pre-order on eBay anyway as they have no idea when they are going to get the cards!

isn't that what a lot of us have done - As we keep getting reminded we've paid for our place in a queue. We're not entitled to anything.

Whilst "scalping" isn't good practice it isn't actually illegal and they're not breaking any rules. I didn't see anything in OCs Terms when i ordered about scalping.

At the end of the day OC buys its stock elsewhere adds some margin to it and sells it. How is that any different?

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RTX-3080-confirmed-pre-order/333736365993

"EVGA XC3 Black RTX 3080 currently on preorder, which was pre-ordered 17/09/2020 at 2:21 and therefore not currently in hands. Will be dispatched when recieved. Dispatched with Royal Mail Special Delivery (TM) 1:00 pm."

Delivery location will be Cardiff as per his eBay description.

Should be enough information on this one for OCUK to find the order even if his forum name doesn't match

How many games will support DLSS when AMD is being used in all the consoles. More likly that games end up better optimised for AMD in the long run no?

DLSS 3.0 is rumoured to work on pretty much every game according to Moores Law is dead

https://www.tweaktown.com/news/7388...could-work-on-any-game-that-uses-taa/amp.html

I think DLSS is going to become a huge factor unless AMD counter it.

So which one on eBay are you then?

Well, I am slightly more informed than the general user

Inside tip: just because only 47 cards were accounted for on here doesn’t mean the queues didn’t drop more than that. Don’t forget there are cancellations and RMAs to consider....

 

[Generalray]

Long time lurker, first time poster here I have a Gigabyte OC pre-order (163 in queue).

Gibbo stated earlier in the week that:

"We shipped a small amount of the following RTX 3080 cards to customers yesterday. MSI Ventus 3X OC, Gigabyte Aorus Master, Gigabyte Vision OC, Gigabyte Gaming OC, Asus TUF Gaming OC. The following small amount of RTX 3090 cards also shipped to customers yesterday. Asus TUF Gaming OC and MSI Ventus 3X OC".

It does not appear that updates for any Gigabyte OC queue dwellers have been sent out...I would hope that they are expecting more in today/shipping today hence no update...

Unless I am mistaken of course any of the other 162 Gigabyte OC queue dwellers had a queue update please?

Thank you, knew i had seen that somewhere and not dreamt it lol

Of course. I just meant with future deliveries. Nobody knows how big they are going to be later in the month/November to make any assumptions that people could be waiting 6 months. Not to say they won’t be !
Yeah I’m hoping when some TUF NON OC come into stock and I get a new queue, there will be a couple of cancellations will be more noticeable the higher people are in the queue !

PS. Everyone else started getting ads on here again ?

Yeah, I seem to remember the reviews for the TUF started coming in about that time.
I was foolish enough to fall for the ETA on the Trio.. Just assumed it was a live update of the stock allocation. I should have switched when I had the chance. Never mind, just annoying when you're try to do a new build.
On the other hand, it maybe a good thing with the new AMD CPU in a month. Just hoping that's not going to be the same situation as this
