I suppose now that my X3 is a way off, do I switch over to a 3070? I'm running at 1440 and won't be going to 4k any soon. Currently have no GPU and will want to play something.

Am I likey to get a 3070 quicker then a Inno3D X3 3080?

Don't count on it, their "miscommunication" deprived us of that opportunity as well.

I ordered when their site still listed an ETA of Sept 23. At this point maybe they should offer those who have an active BACKORDER an option to PREORDER an RX 6000 series card.... but that would be good customer service.

At this point with rising prices and long queues, cancellation just isn't worth it for me at 16.

don't be daft, there's another few thousand AMD fanboys they will want to put into queues as well.

Someone doesn't understand business, if you have thousands on overdraft with your bank at criminal extortionate interest rates and then you stick a million of other peoples money in your account you now have no overdraft, and you don't pay whatever the rate was, say 18% which means all that money was worth 18% interest to you because as long as you have the money you are not paying the interest on the overdraft, simples

HELLO MY FRIENDS

No chance I'm reading back through all of that ^

I assume there are still no Eagles? I *think* we're a couple of days after 'delivery by 23rd September' now?

We're also past the "ok amount of eagles coming in at the end of the week" (Last week).
Who knows where they are. Other retailers seem to have gotten their eagle deliveries and shipped them out, OCUK looking for them in the warehouse. Lmao
 
I could not be a mod on this forum it would drive me insane. People are now waving an emailed reply from an employee as the smoking gun evidence to back up whatever narrative they told themselves was the truth. Turth like beauty it would seem is in the eye of the beholder.
Recently Currys told me in person and on the phone via text my TV is valid for warranty replacement - on going back to the store her manager says no - I'm 5 days after the warranty ran out. I'm not pleased but its not a major conspiracy Currys have enacted is it?

By releasing more delivery comms with the worldwide disruption ongoing its very easy to pass on what you've been told and then have that changed. If you've been here 1000 pages you will recall that sometimes the shipments gets stopped until more can be grouped and sent. Recently its often without comms also going upstream. Nvidia shoulder the blame for this situation in terms of stock. COVID can take the blame for worldwide distribution and its lovely cousin BREXIT will sharp make its mark on imports too.

Its not Overclockers fault if comms they have got have not panned out. Gibbo's job as far as I can see is to secure stock and deal with all supply lines - I want him doing that not responding in here every 5 mins.

Regardless if you feel that "in stock next day" on launch day is lying (I seem to think it was true but for only 1 or 2 cards that made it) but it was still showing after a tidal wave of activity hit all sites on launch day and it could not be updated immediately. You could make the claim their systems need work - thats fine, that they are not quite up to current crazy demand but hardly that its pure dishonesty.

They take orders still - as long as they inform about the huge delay and give customers choice I'm fine with choice. But if anyone thinks they are hiding cards or not selling things deliberately I would argue your nuts. They would *want* to fulfil every order they have ASAP - they are a business.

I will say the forum did apply early on the right pressure to get the order queue numbers out which was good and they did take a while to come around on that - I gave them a bit of slack since we are in COVID times. Bottom lines its their business to run as they see fit and they will take on board or ignore any feedback again as they see fit.

If you want to cancel do it - else wait. Just stop with the rabid drivel.
 
Gibbo posted PNY 3090 a large amount is due end of this week.
PNY 3080 a small amount is due end of this week.

HAHA Not sure "A lot" will be relieved - the prospect that having ordered well within 30mins of launch, currently being 16 in queue and unlikely to get a card in this 1st drop and considering the sparsity of any ASUS RTX 3000 series deliveries right now... i could still be waiting until the new year...
 
"A lot shall be relieved to see this !!

"A lot" shall be relieved xD dude, its less than 10! In almost 2 months.
Its good they're finally making it to your inventory but as someone in even the 20's, I hardly find it "relieving".
