Think it's safe to say the picture is wrong as the FTW3 are normally in the same tier as the ROG Strix etc.

On the latest EVGA stream, when asked about availability for EU, Jacob Freeman advised all air-cooled cards are planned for 17th release.

Really? Well, no other UK store has them and the EU store is dead for a long time.

Yeah, he's normally pretty reliable but who knows!?
That's my ideal scenario tbh but also my worst, I work nights so I would get down there, grab it, hurry back home but would be
Only 4 days from "release" of the 3080 and still no news from all the suppliers yet?
Or did the original post just not get updated?
In my brief research, seems like only EK have been upfront with their water block design, leaves me concerned or am I just over worrying?
*EDIT*
Oh I see by clicking some of the GPU's on the main website you can see the estimated price.
Ok good enough

Any news on stock?
Either they are under an NDA or there is no stock and will just be selling pre orders.
I have genuine concern here about how this is going to work.
I like shopping with OCUK, but I am not happy about me ordering a card and it not being available, then having my money taken while I wait on an ETA.
I saw the same with a monitor recently, and it really made me look at things differently as no regular updates were given, but OCUK still had my money.
Really your money should not be taken until the order is being shipped, that is how a lot of other suppliers do things and if I am being honest there is no reason for the money to be taken at pre-order other than for cash flow - which i don't feel is a valid reason.
Just my opinion, is all I have.

Yup said the same many times myself, nothing changes. Ofcourse we all have the possibility to go with a vendor that charges on dispatch.
Much as I dont want to have that one company dominate all.
I'm guessing OcUK can't say one way or another, but it looks like Caseking are not expecting to have any cards on Thursday:
Translation: "As far as we know, we won't have any stock.
We don't have any info on when we would get the cards.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask."
Read into it what you will, but looks like there's going to be a shortage of cards if one of Europe's biggest retailers doesn't expect to have any on release day.
