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

I don't understand why you all appear to be falling over yourselves to get a GPU which seems to be having major stability issues.

One can't help but think that OCUK has suffered quite a lot of reputational damage surrounding this launch, and rightly so considering how they've conducted themselves.

What stabillity issues? Drivers fixed the "capacitor-but-really-a-boost-clock" problem.

And OCUK have conducted themselves? Where? :D
 
MSI Ventus
Ordered: 15:18
Position: ~170
Estimated Position: ~290

Seems to be in line with other Ventus orders (aside from one at 16:36), here they are so far:

14:46 #29
14:57 #38
15:07 #47
15:17 #164
15:18 #~170
15:19 #188
15:21 #218
15:23 #237
16:36 #160
21:16 #531

15:19 here with 192 queue
 
I wonder why the TUF OC seems to have such a big disparity between the official and unofficial queues compared to everything else? All I can think is lots of people jumped ship to another SKU when this queue-hopping business was going on but I expected more people to try and snap up TUFs, not less. Not that it matters much, just interesting.

People probably jumped ship from that card because they thought everyone would jump ship to that card. :eek:

Of which has so far been resolved with a driver fix iirc ?
 
Thank you for your pre-order for the MSI GeForce RTX 3080 Gaming X Trio 10GB GDDR6X PCI-Express Graphics Card. You are currently in queue position 210.
Order was at 15:15 on 17th Sept.

I think this is alright, not ideal, but could be a lot worse. If they get a shipment of 30 a week then I am waiting 7 weeks.

Well you ordered at 15:15 and have 210, @Dugganator ordered at 15:17 and has 221, but heres me with my 15:16 order with 1142. Wonderful. Glad I can be the anomaly. This is going to be FUN to sort out!

Out of curiousity, I ordered by credit card, how did you pay? Should I have gone with Paypal/Amazon?
 
If they ordered an hour after release and has such a low queue number surely that suggests some have been sent?

Yes I imagine some have gone out but this is still a paper launch imo, nvidia and board partners said they underestimated demand but stock levels are well below even a regular GPU launch without the extra demand.
 
3080 non-OC TUF
Unofficial queue 1800
Official queue 943
Ordered on the 18th sept 11.09am
That's ok I knew I was in for a wait.
Be interesting to see with the weekly update how quick (or slowly) that number drops.
