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

Imagine if all the chips NVIDIA sends to ASUS are able to hit their OC threshold. NON-OC versions will never be available .
The OC and non OC models are the same card with the only difference being the Vbios and since all the chips hit over 1800 they don't need to bin the dies.

I guess they prioritise the OC version as it brings in a larger return especially since supply is limited.
 
@Gibbo you still didn't clarify which cards do or do not fall under "most". Can we get some clarification because it honestly just feels like you're too lazy to type out the list of ~10 cards right now. You're getting hopes up for people who wont receive cards.
 
There's a lot of misdirected hate in this thread towards OCUK. Sure, updates aren't frequent or are vague, but what else do you want them to do if they themselves don't have any further information or updates to share?
 
@GIGA-Man - please chime in here. A shipment was due in last week - no news. Other retailers have had theirs and shipped. So either two things have happened here 1) None were shipped to OCUK, so we were lied to in the first place. 2) They were shipped to OCUK and they got them like the rest of the retailers, but aren't telling us. Lying by omission.

Please....keep them honest, did they actually receive a shipment?

Now getting taunted by pop-ups from the UK Rainforest with Eagles in stock (at inflated prices)!

They could stop selling lies, that would be a start.

Stop anymore pre orders from this point until they do have a clue

Not give misinformation on upcoming shipments

Not lie about when we might get a card before ordering, was told by their sales team before Christmas before I paid, week after I paid I am 1180 in the Strix OC que with 0 hope before February at this rate

Those 3 might be a good start
 
I've heard a rumour that they're being held here

Did anyone get a Gigabyte 3080 last week or Eagle for that matter since there was meant to be a very small amount of them? My queue position hadn't changed as of the email going out on Friday so just curious.

I was even defensive of OC earlier in the day. But reading previous updates then seeing nothing but silence when they don't turn up is mind boggling. And they're not even updates for a card I'm waiting on.

Whoever is at the top making these decisions needs to take a long hard look at how much they're ******* everyone off here. Dangling a carrot then ignoring people that had a nibble.

Honestly, if you're not customer service Vs sourcing the cards - fine. Then put someone in charge of updating people and give them the tools to do their job.

At this point it really is coming off like they're intentionally trying to upset people.
