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

How can we tell what numbers are for each card in que, does OCUK not tell us?

i want to re-order a 3080 but obviously will not order on a 3080 brand that has a huge numbers of preorders.

OCUK competitor shows what orders they have and how many for each brand,

atleast that way we can order a brand with the least numbers in que
 
And if I want to discuss with others about how I might not get my card for weeks and what might be a viable alternative where do I go then?

Reddit. Or if an OCUK sourced card, that's ok to ask here. It's a bit of a lottery so I doubt ocuk customer services would want to stick their necks out to advise what to go for, you'd be upset if they got their best guess wrong.

The competitor won't allow you to place an order though! You shouldn't even be considering placing a order and certainly not one based on queue length. KFA2 and Inno3d have short(ish) queues but they haven't shipped a single card and are unlikely to do so until next year (if we're lucky!)
 
Maybe Gigabyte should prioritise actually making stock for the current cards they have already 'sold' before bringing out new models to split the silicon further. Absolute joke of a company as of late.

There is 1000s of Eagles on order since launch yet they don't even seem to exist in the wild, @Gibbo or @GIGA-Man aren't helping the current mood either with their absolute lack of information on the MIA shipment from last week.

I just can't understand why the don't tell us anything. I get that they don't want to provide too much information as the Karen mob here will just use it against them. But they set the expectation of a delivery last week. Seems fair for a brief update saying a) It's delayed and still on the way, arriving in the next week or two?b) Gigabyte was not able to allocate any to you after all c) It's got stolen by Pirates rounding the Horn of Africa, d) It was a miscommunication, e) Your dog ate it.

If you don't tell us anything, we'll be forced to make something wild and inaccurate up, as many here are doing. I get the feeling that Gibo has just had enough of being yelled at (fair enough), and won't talk to us anymore, secretly hoping we all die in a freak yachting accident.

Can't wait to be in the queue for a Ryzen 5900x next week.
 
They've been shipping every week as I've said we split them with all customers.
But not to OC? I was 9th in the Queue at the start, and am 8th as of last Friday. So I'm assuming someone ahead of me died of old age, but OC have definitely not shipped any. Unless they are doing the queue in reverse order? Nothing would surprise me anymore.

Are you able to give us any idea of the amount shipped over the past few weeks? It's confusing when you say they are being shipped out but OCUK say that none are coming in. Is it in such small quantities that it might as well be next-to-nothing (Less than 5) or is there just a few pallets gone missing and nobody knows here they are? They should be signing for your deliveries, right?

well apparently some guy ordered a Zotac card last week, he said he is on number 35

Thats a very low number compared to giga and asus's 1000+ pre-order list

So im not sure if he is is mistaken

then you get other ppl stating they ordered cards on friday and received on monday, just doesnt make sense
 
Seriously, 1 Gigabyte Gaming OC leaving OC UK warehouses a week is just a joke at this point. Am I going to wait a year????!!! @GIGA-Man can you let us know why OC UK is getting such low stock numbers? Are you really just sending like 4 of these card to UK per week? How many shops is there in UK with these card? 4? 5? Is this all that UK gets per week?

Nope every one is getting more than that on average, they've been shipping in every week. There is a decent amount arriving late this week, I'm checking on estimated numbers. Should know more tomorrow.
