Just waiting for it to be picked packed and shipped :D

FYI I got my order in at 14:28 just by refreshing the page every 5 seconds or so

lucky :p. I was refreshing ever few seconds since about 14:05-14:45 nothing :(. That is usually my luck though, nonexistent haha :mad:.

Will probably wait for next 3090FE drop or 3080Ti FE drop which ever comes first.

Yep mine was just like you, around the same time in stock appeared. Mine has also progressed to payment authorised!
At MSRP too, who woulda thunk it! Time to sell my 2080 Ti for a profit...

Where will you be selling your 2080ti? Looks like I'll be doing the same with my Zotac (would be good if remaining warranty is transferable too...)

Not true, sorry for any confusion. Since we know that we can't trust our website to manage the traffic currently we decided to follow the same process that we've followed for the last few graphics card launches. List the cards, don't sell.

We aren't selling the cards currently, at all, we are working on a way to best serve our loyal customer base and we'll hopefully be in a position to do something next week.

The sales guys were all under instruction to say "no we can't sell you a Ti today" but it's our fault that we didn't explain it clearly enough to them why.

Also, before anyone says 'but you've got systems available with Ti in'...correct. I was given a grand total of about 30 units across four models by my closest SI partners. This is a LOT less than the retail allocation received so far.

For anybody who thinks we're wrong for doing this, the information from our ecommerce director is that in the last hour 96% of the traffic on our site was from "bots". Had we actually put the cards on sale, there's almost no chance that genuine customers would have been able to buy.

I've got access to members market, so might just sell my 2080ti there for a sensible price.

See that right there is the right thing to do, everyone moaning about scalpers then putting their own GPUs on eBay for silly money. I already thought today that if I managed to get a 3080ti that I'd sell my EVGA 1080ti Hybrid on a forum somewhere for sensible money as a way of helping someone out and at the same time not contributing to the massive price hiking that's going on. Yes I know, supply and demand and all that but I'd feel much better knowing I wasn't part of the problem and at the same time helping someone out.
 
I have skimmed through the last 15-20 pages on here and can see a few were successful, some disappointed.

So now the dust has settled (and I have been outside DIY'ing all day) what was the conclusion from todays successful launch ?
Did anyone manage to bag a 3080ti whether FE or AIB ?
Did we see thousands of 3080ti's for sale because "Nvidia have held 3080 chips back" ? (noticed 3080ti have been completely removed from one e-tailer not OCUK btw)
I see OCUK plan to come up with a solution to serve their customer base the best like recently with forum announcement releases so some good news for people there.

More importantly did anyone get a card they wanted ?
