With three great games coming out soon, these 3000 series cards are def needed, especially in my case as I have 1060 Strix OC. Fingers crossed there's an update soon on 3080 Strix OC.

*** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 SERIES STOCK SITUATION - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION ***
I'm in official number 9 for the Aorus Xtreme 3080, no shipments sent out for the card yet. Hopefully I should be in the first batch that gets sent out.
I'm not even sure Gigabyte has an official release date on the card, just sometime in October they said however it's the 11th and no shipments so far. Fingers crossed the card gets here by November.
Honestly I'm not even expecting to get my card by November. You'll be lucky to see one this year with how many non-OC cards asus are pumping out currently (seemingly zero)
Looking at all of the info, this is the probable scenario for 1 model of card:
NVIDIA gave a very short development time to the OEMs. Assuming this, production starts 2 weeks before launch. First week is tuning production processes so everything off the line is junk so production really starts 1 week before launch.
OEMs will run a card off the line every 2 minutes when ramped up.
Week 1 ramp up for one card on one line - 5040/wk.
5 weeks from ramp up to now = 25k cards off one line.
If half are stocked for container and half flown it means 12.5k for the global market off one production line from launch to now.
This does not leave a lot for each e/retailer across the world, even if you work out 4 production lines per card.
The scenario of running single cards on multiple lines, limits the SKUs available so this is more likely the scenario.
Looking at container deliveries, it takes around 6 weeks from leaving the factory to get to the e/retailer. With these numbers, you are looking at 2 weeks to fill a container as most will be flown to satisfy demand.
That means the container leaving on 28th Sep so there will be no large deliveries until 9th November earliest.
There is the Maths.

Alright lads, I was bored so I registered our own club domain.
ocuk3080.club now redirects back to the Unofficial Overclockers 30 Series Queue google doc spreadsheet.

Appreciate that. I've been searching everywhere for the date. Hopefully, fingers crossed, I may actually get the card before November.
I ordered the masters card at the end of September and im 156 I haven't had any updates about it since my first email soooooo hahah
Me too mate. Ordered 20 minutes after launch, no updates since the official queue email. Fingers crossed for the both of us

Yeah it's kind of crazy, thought Nvidia would have kept up the founders edition facade for a little longer but they just flat out gave up already lol.

It was showing as "delivery 23 September" for a good while after launch. Loads of us got taken in by that. Probably 500 at least.
Thought as much. Similarly with the Asus TUF, which looks like the most popular here.
O.c UK could be clever here. Everyone should be aware bulk buying has cost saving implications in shipping. Perhaps drip feeding just causes frustration with consumer so the collect all the orders keeping people on a hook. One bulk order later happy customers and scrapped more profit off the top. Extra bag of haribo thrown in for damage control
I do feel your pain with the 980 bottlenecking my system. I get 5.8k which is bumped mostly by the CPU.
