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

[MxUK]

Managed to grab an FE and I'm happy with that vs the Strix OC I was waiting on. Cancelling position 36 now, good luck eveyone.

I know you all Slate OCUK about them saying they are the UK preferential supplier to NVIDIA, this is true you only have to go on NVIDIA site and they advise Overclockers on every product. However, where they are in the world for MSi, PALLAT, ZOTAC, EVGA etc, who knows? I have been following the numbers on another website and S^&n have had a similiar amount in and out. MSi not a lot has come over yet but I am guessing they will send container loads at some point to go with the AIRFREIGHT presently. It will catch up and I beleive with a thud.

So, its safe to say I know where to buy from in the future

Gosh it gets even quieter before the dawn....

everyone's fed up. It's better to not think about it, then time passes faster

Stock produced after Golden Week won't be arriving here in big numbers till early November.

Yeah, that’s true. Shipping etc takes a while. Last week I was very optimistic with the rumour of the large amount of stock coming early November/ end of October but I’m now having my doubts.
Who knows. Will just have to wait and see !

Seams no one has a ASUS Strix 3090 OC for sale

Definately not from here that's for sure.

Their estimate was a lie, ok? Can't you understand that they never knew when the cards are going to arrive, ergo could not have an ETA? How can you 3stimat3 something and when I call and ask for estimated delivery they say they don't know? Which one is a lie then? Is the guy in the phone lying or the site is lying? I ain't gonna cut it out. If there was less agreeable people like you here then they wouldn't get away with still taking orders (they're not pre-orders, no matter what they say). Stop being so nice to them, they don't care about us or our cards. Their CEO just cares about securing our funds to get better position with Nvidia and it's for sure not as good as they advertised as we just seen by them not getting any FEs but their so called worse off competition got them. You are deluded into some mystique legendary status of this joke of a shop.

Have you considered growing a pair and actually taking them to small claims court then legal eagle?

 

[sunshinewelly]

i so find it very odd that there are still posters here who are continuing to support OC over this shambles

So why does one week off cause a months delay?

 

[Doct0r]

Sorry but are OC getting any cards? Other websites partnered with Nvidia for FE's, or getting regular stock in. Here we hear from Gibbo every few days saying like 8 cards are coming in. What did you guys do to pi*s off the distributors? Or was it total reliance on the pre-orders to get a large batch in November?

Microwave three sizeable spuds for 14 minutes at full whack and then rub a little oil and salt on the skins (watch out they’re hot) before you pop them in a 180° oven for about 20 minutes and you get perfect crispy skinned jackety wonders in half the time of oven cooking alone.

Adjust micro timings for more or fewer spuds.

I’M HELPING!

Remember to stab the spuds a couple of times or if you're unlucky, they might pop. This does give you instant mash but you'll have to scrape it off the walls of your microwave.

I'm HELPING TOO!

I am very curious to know what their plan is. To be still taking preorders as well means they must have something up their sleeve or have information that nobody knows about. Hopefully you are right about the large orders in November as no competitor has been getting large amounts of stock.
Either that or this will severely hurt their reputation.

They just added Watch Dogs Legion and GF NOW codes in the cart as well! So happy I didn't have to spend £100 more for an AiB card that was gonna be watercooled anyway

 

[Stanners]

I was told the ETA was on the 23rd of Sep, when I called them it turned out they didn't know at all they the ETA was. If not for that date on the page I'd go with competition. They put it there to lure people in. Now I need to God knows how long to get refund, they don't post estimates when my card is arriving, they didn't even let us know any forecast. At this point I might as well ask fortune teller. The should just refuse to take orders when they run out of stock, period. This is scammy tactics. Anti-competition etc.

The refund proccess is normally very quick, have you requested it?

 

[peds]

Afternoon, light on news today from across the shires. Fingers crossed for tomorrow

 

[WesleyBurns]

The good thing about this it’s so bad it will never be repeated.......

Cancel, then.

The moment they didn't know when the cards would arrive they offered an option for refund, and is even explained on the forum how to request one, it takes a couple of days maximum, they are not keeping your money, if you want them back you can ask them back. I don't understand why are you still in the queue and then moaning on the forum? OCUK is the only website that is offering some kind of queue for people that don't want to refresh pages every 20 minutes. It is YOUR choice to pay for something to be in the queue, you can DROP out at every moment, grow up!

 

[TrinerScot]

No so quick based on what some people post here. Some get it on the same day, some after almost a week. To be out of queue and out of money because of this company's greed is not a ride I'm signing up for.

Do you know what prisoner's dilemma is? Cause that's what they forced us into. Knowingly.

Do you know what a refund is?
