Why on gods earth did you sell in August?
To get the £950 back on a card I had for almost 2yrs. Bad timing I know but wasn't anticipating the global shortage seen from September.Why on gods earth did you sell in August?
Appreciated pal, highest on there thus far is 19, certainly like those odds better than 1734 for the TUF, If it wasn't for the fact my system is all black I would have considered the vision card.
Me and you are in different universes... i would have kept a 2080ti for 4 years.I sold my 2080ti in august alsowanted to do it before the nvidia announcement. I paid 1k for my 2080ti at launch sold it for 890£ on a1 pound selling weekend. Had a rx 580 as backup no real games I wanted and only lost 100£ for a good year and half usage of my 2080ti.

Wut? More like 2000+ or 1800+ at least. I ordered two days after launch and am 1500th lol.Estimate : 1000+
I got TUF for temperatures and the price. I also need to wait.Appreciated pal, highest on there thus far is 19, certainly like those odds better than 1734 for the TUF, If it wasn't for the fact my system is all black I would have considered the vision card.
the email I got on the 29th September was the last time they had a batch of the msi cards?
Might as well cancel my order as I was 1250 on that date
IIRC I think the TUF is one of the best cards for thermals.I got TUF for temperatures and the price. I also need to wait.
Rip you're going to be in for a long waitTUF 3080 at the beginning of the month.
Only 3 entries have been submitted to the spreadsheet for it, so not much data at all (come on people, submit your queue position), but the third one was a purchase on the 28th with queue position 168, so far from the longest queue, but also not that short, no new data for two weeks, and I'm not sure we've heard of any shipments going out.
The Master is allegedly shipping this week and the Xtreme next (possibly week after.....), and im gonna lay money on it that OC dont get more than 10 in at a time, you have more chance getting a 20gb 3080 or the Big Navi2 before a Aorus card, im 25th in line for the xtreme and suspect Ill be canceling to order BigNavi before my Aorus card ships.. I placed my Order on launch day soon as the website allowed it so one of the first... A month later not a single xtreme card been shipped.
Then the order have to be placed before me on the same day between 12:00 - 12:30 not on 4th Oct like you wrote, unless you meant to says that the spreadsheet has been filled on 4th then that would line up with official queue.
@Mr Oblong If they hadn't have any chips then what the point of making extra pcbs, shrouds and packaging?
I've had an email accepting my order but never one telling me a position in queue ?

just asking to see if anyone may know better than me, anyone know anything about the aurous master/xtreme cards im 156 but wondering if anyone knows when OC may get stock of them in? thanks
Ordered my asus tuf oc late on the 18th first email position was 321 , second email I moved up to 30515 places in two weeks classs or what

So I’m looking at early next year if it carries on like this,
Would the gigabyte vision card be a better option if that que is low if I cancelled tomorrow and ordered that ?
really can’t wait very long as I am cardless and apart from buying a new cpu I am ready to build my new rig.
I got TUF for temperatures and the price. I also need to wait.
So here i am. Long time observer of this thread and the one previous and still havnt ordered a GPU. As each day passes the queues get bigger and I dont know I've made right decision or not. Initially skipping the 3080 hoping for a better 3090 - that turned out to be my first wrong move. When I looked back at the 3080 queues it became clear the more popular cards ran into the 1000's. So inevitably feel there's no point joining one now and will have to keep my eyes open for random stock elsewhere. I can't recall a time when its so hard to part with £700+! Anyways the wait continues.
My reasoning for getting on the tail end of a 2000+ queue for a Gigabyte Eagle instead of trying to get lucky and randomly picking up a card somewhere is that since Overclockers have sold 2000+ cards before even getting them its my hunch they'll be prioritised by suppliers over a high street store when cards become available. At least OC'ers can say to their suppliers we need X amount of cards because they're all already paid for.
Also, I'm more of an optimist than some people here. I think once manufacturing picks up it'll ramp up quickly. I don't believe in any of conspiracy theories going about. The most mundane reason I've heard for their being a logistical shortage of cards is probably the right one. Sales of the 2000 series cards shot up over lockdown and Nvidea had to keep production of those chips high over the Summer and it over ran into the production of 3080 chips. Thus less production bandwidth.
