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

If you actually want a card before 2022 you might be advised to either switch to Inno3d where OCUK is sole importer and likely to receive all UK bound stock instead of having fractions divided up by a middleman, or alternatively wait for the 3070 and hope you get lucky with the order, saving yourself around £400 into the bargain.

2022? I assume your being sarcastic since 2022 is when nvidia will be releasing their next gen (4000 series?) cards
 
Let us know what they say! I'm 122 so I'd be lucky to get one in the second batch. I'm praying for lots of cancellations, doubtful though and to top it off I have bad toothache. A 3080 would help ease the pain :rolleyes:


I'm 107, so even a small amount of cancellations would help. I have a sneaky feeling that the next batch will be bigger, as it will likely be getting towards the end of the month at that point.
 
Where do we stand on the Watch Dogs and Geforce Streaming thing, because I know the codes expire at some point. What happens if the delay in shipping etc causes us to get the card when they expire but we ordered within time to get the codes? Probs not the right question for here, but worth an ask.
 
Really hoping for some news on Gigabyte cards soon from Gibbo, expecting something given that Aorus twitter confirmed Gaming OC cards this week. Once I don't feel the need to keep checking the forums every minute my work productivity should improve significantly!

OcUK got 1000 codes from Nvidia, and a lot more orders. They're waiting for Nvidia to send them more.
 
Never should have been allowed, chaotic and morally duff.
Is it morally fair though that some people ordered on the site very early but happened to choose a card that overclockers have never had stock of, and probably won't for months (e.g. EVGA and some ASUS non OC cards). Those people may not get a card for months through no fault of their own

Yeah, at some point it will be pallet loads but it depends what the underlying blockers have been so far. Hopefully just one thing that they can clear?

They didn't and don't know that, the point at which they changed there was sod all supply for most cards and some misinformation about the TUF avoiding the crash issues. Sometimes it's just bad luck, you can't add justice by wronging another random group.

Is it morally fair that somebody gets to just pass their misfortune on to somebody else? Nope. This misfortune is between OC and the customer. To penalise somebody completely unrelated is basically retarded.

Three words that you aren't gonna like "Subject to availabilty". Personally I don't want another Ubisoft paint by numbers game...Hopefully they will be running a Cyber punk promo by the time my order completes hehe...
