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

[BurnieJNR]

I am new to this forum, this may not be the right place to post this. I ordered a 3070 but have received no emails after they confirmed the purchase but it should have been dispatched a few days ago so I don’t think I’m going to get one for a month. Anyway, does overclockers now have stock for 3080, specifically the 3080 TUF gaming. Their shop website is so outdated the description still says pre order September 17th so I have no clue what is going on. I want to cancel my 3070 and buy the 3080 if overclockers have it in stock

Come join the queue, im 22nd for that card and have moved 2 places since the 27th September only due to cancellations.

At the rate OCUK get stock, you'll be lucky to see this before 2022

It's quite funny watching the posts about 'watchdogs', when I just contacted CS they don't even know if any of the Inno cards are going to arrive this side of new year and cannot explain why Gibbo had claimed they were being prepared for shipment 20th of October and had never arrived. Trouble is that too much of the posts on the Gibbo thread are inaccurate or not updated at all, or are so lacking in detail that they make no sense at all.

Ouch if thats the case then a lot of people will go AMD if there is stock... Inno only sending x2 stock since release is beyond a joke

If they did that the staff wouldn't be overworked! And ran into the ground, specially since they wouldn't have to worry about new orders to be processed just the current situation with ongoing orders and cancellations.

you think they give a shhit ? its free money they aint gonna say no
they don't care about customers

So it seems people here are reaching out to the manufacturers, has anyone heard from Zotac? I may send them an email / message, seems strange that the updates are coming from other customers speaking direct to suppliers....

I tried messaging zotac, but after about 4 days they got back to me saying there department couldn't answer my questions.

But it ain’t like they are shipping out hundreds of OC versions is it. I think it was maybe 41 they shipped after the initial launch day stock? That is nothing relative to queue sizes.

The competition seem to be getting stock of nearly every brand. Appear to be completing more orders than o.c by a good margin. I always shop with the competition but given how fast initial stock sold I ended up in this trap that is o.c pre order queue.
I'm not gonna cancel now out of principal.

Very tempted when buy button appears with the competition and pay more for the same gpu but I'm a stubborn bloke and will ride this train till the end. I want my Tuf 3080 and will never purchase from o.c again.
I appreciate the stock issue is Nvidia issue but overclockers customer support is shockingly bad. If it were my company a few p45's would have rolled out weeks ago.

 

[manofarms]

my point being you can tell a lot about a company when times are hard and that is deffo shining through

 

[BurnieJNR]

The update on "A small amount of most of the 3080's are due end of next week" should come today. OC would have shipping notification today if these are due by end of the week.

Not sure why I'm asking as we all know ASUS will fail to deliver any TUF 3080 for yet another week. 6 weeks since launch and they have delivered sweet **** all

Yeah, understandable.

Could this be the 3080 trio day we can only hope.

we can only hope .... like all the other days of hoping and crying into my mr huggie bear uncontrollably awaiting no news!

That was a reference to Gigabyte cards though, not all manufacturers.

People whinging about watchdogs just meh, I want my bloody card lol
And COD is for weirdos and kids that scream down headset, ill be flogging that code lol

Some genuine proper ***** on COD games that think there god's gift.

This GPU is for real games! RUNESCAPE!!!!

The 3950x will be happy to see this card when it arrives... poor Alienware 15 will sit in corner gathering dust, the 1070 max q served well the I7 8750h is too hot!

I reached out to Zotac on Twitter but haven’t heard anything back yet. Seems to be less demand for their cards so should hopefully be able to get through the queue quicker...

ive cancelled. Incompetant company. Sure, maybe its not your fault that you're not getting cards when your competitors are.

But it is your fault for terrible customer service, awful one liner updates, constantly failing or lying about orders coming in.

Pre ordered day one, and you've shipped maybe 30 of my gpu in that time with absolutely no updated information on it.

GG ocuk and your "great relationship with nvidia"

I did the same. I ordered an hour after release on OC and nada for a month and a half. Meanwhile after using several discords and the Nvidia subreddit, I managed to order a card and it's due tomorrow. This was after trying for about 4-5 days.

 

[Echodelta37]

I just cant find any competitor site where i could at least pre-order. Can someone tell me a competitor, who does not give a ... to get banned who already cancelled here or got their card?

This is the problem....no other site kept pre-orders open, because they were sensible and level headed, and realised that even given their bigger supply drop (than OC), that they simply wouldn't be able to clear huge pre-order queues quickly.

The main competitor has been pretty transparent in the pre order status...as that drops, some may come up for general sale, but even that will take a while.

Customer services OCUK confirmed just now that a large shipment is due this week.
Still very cryptic and I’m asking for more details. Including what happened to the shipment of 23..

edit: of the trio

 

[Glenn Jackson]

Normally 3-5 days, just now? Place your bets lol

OCUK ain't made of money, lol, give em time

They’re made of my money.

 

[Gaben82]

Cant believe it no 3080 Inno x3 x4 comes. Please guys tell me who is the biggest competitor, i`ll cancel here and forget this place forever.
