*** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3090 SERIES STOCK SITUATION - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION ***
Urgh, not unexpected. Still can’t believe the only card I’ve ever had to RMA in about 25 years of building PCs has to have been a 3080. Zotac I f’ing hate you and your horrid quality fans. Close to two months not able to use PC now and not a Zotac shipment in sight. Gotta laugh I guess

No queue movement in 3 weeks </3 the downside of these lower queue position is no one wants to cancel anymore
I was thinking the same thing haha

Me too and I am now in position 23. At this rate the 4090 will be out by the time the manufacturers make enough stock ...

Also this forum has slowed down so fast since the new year, there was almost 2 pages a day and now its so silent. I guess most people got what they wanted and we are the few who were at the back that stuck it through
Been stuck at #93 in the queue for Strix 3090 for 2 weeks.
3 weeks ago I was at..... #94.
Tempted to cancel, it’s not looking like I’ll get it before Easter and by then my enthusiasm will have gone completely
The 3080ti is so close now, probably best to wait for that

Chinese new year will slow everything down, not many around even now. unless you want to buy at scalped prices.

Might just be me but I keep reading that the 3070/3080 is going to be very limited in Jan/Feb and into the Chinese New Year but the 3090 seems to have been even lower in shipped numbers and there's no real mention of it? @Gibbo

I preordered the MSI Suprim last Friday. When I called the salesperson said there was 7 in queue. I called up again yesterday as I didn’t receive an email with my queue position. I’m number 5. I don’t think anything will happen till Chinese New Year is finished, which is the 22nd of Feb.
I pre ordered 2 weeks ago so maybe I'm closer, not had any response yet though.

I would leave a Web Note first, and if they don’t reply after 72 hours, give them a bell if you have the time to wait on hold.
Be interesting to see where you sit in the queue too.
I did get an update, I'm no 3. It'll be worth the wait to be able to use my pc again

Placed order end of October, I new there would be a wait, but this store had the lowest priced 3090 card at the time. on Thursday got a call the card had arrived. So off I went to collect my AS’US rtx3090 tuf. Paid £1400 for. I put the 3070 on eBay with a start at 99p auction, thinking it would give someone a chance at a fair priced card, I thought the scalpers wouldn’t be bothered about a card with a 7 day auction. Boy was I wrong, I got bombarded with messages from people with all sorts of stories and would I sell it for xyz price? It the end I ended the auction at £720, I intended to end once it got to £650, but the bids came in so fast it was £720 before I knew it. The 3070 I got from OC before the price went up.
It's not scalping if you set an auction with a £0 starting price! Can you tell us some of these stories you were told just so we can have a good laugh?

Mainly along the lines of ‘I’m a uni student and....’ nothing hilarious, just desperate really.
That’s very nice of you, I don’t think I’ll end the auction if I can replace my 3060ti with a 3080
