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

It went straight from coming soon to out of stock. I feel like I didn't even get a chance

it was there for a few minutes this time - i was not particulaly quick on this occasion but seemed to have bagged it
the nvidia website literally never updated. The only people who got a card either were using bots, or got a link from someone using a bot.

I'm literally so disappointed at this point, I've tried so hard to be patient, but after @Gibbo gives us his metrics for terms he uses, only to receive SIX cards (putting me from 23rd in queue to 17th) is literally terrible. How within 3 STRIX OC shipments in a month do you get shipments of 3, 9 and 6, it's literally ludicrous at this point. I know the size of the shipments is nothing to do with with Overclockers, but stop with the BS numbers. Don't list a shipment as something as low as 10 but potentially as high as 30 only to get nearly HALF the lowest number.

The gap may even be narrower when they move to 7nm or release a Ti version, for just gaming it's really not worth it £650-£800 just for a GPU is enough already. I'm not into self mugging.
lol same. DOn't
The competitor listed the FE. Because they're like the partners with NVIDIA in the UK I believe.

Constantly checking the webpages and discord, but needed to take a work call around half past. Get back to see the FE have been and gone.

52mins till mass cancellations anyway 
Everyone that I can see that got one weren't using the Nvidia site...
I'm really hoping for some good news today. The dream would be: comparable performance by most meaningful measures, £200 undercut, and explicit acknowledgement of Nvidia's clusterfeck launch by telling us: and we have a million of them produced and they're already on the way to retailers.
It's very clear to me that Nvidia is engaged in disruption tactics. Probably because they're scared that this time maybe, just maybe, AMD got it right.

We can all hope that the AMD stream will cause mass cancellations for us 3080 people. Im not one for AMD GPU's personally, had bad experiences in the past so Im just gunna stay with my 3080 pre-order. Its not end of the world for me because im 30 in the queue for the Palit Gaming Pro non-OC
