Gigabyte are one of the companies that haven't released sizes yet, but Asus have the ROG Strix cards are both 319mm's. The TUF's are 300mm.

Actually the "Master" version is now confirmed at 319mm's. No word on the Xtreme card though. The Eagle OC is 320mm

EDIT: Also not sure if I'm allowed to mention a hardware review site on here but a well known one has just released a story stating the ASUS ROG Strix 3080's will NOT be available today. They will be available on the 21st at the earliest.

I know thats the time for the OC site, but is that also true for the Nvidia one as well?

Yup, 2pm.

Only going to try and grab a FE card. Can't see a reason to spend more on an after market one, especially with folks hiking prices up since the benchmarks came out good (Yeah, I know, supply and demand, but it's not as if the price they bought them at wasn't already locked in before all this... just seems slimey).
 
Looks like the zotac 3080 is the way for me.. wish I had the pennies to go to the 3090 but tbh it would be way too overkill for my needs.

Reasoning for choosing zotac over soo many other brands??
Simple..... warranty of 5 years and the rma that they offer is awesome. Also they look nice and the coolers are good
Time to start selling spares and saving pennies me thinks.

5 Year warranty is awesome.

But I don't like the look of the cooler.
It appears to be blocking air flow from exiting the front side of the card and directing it mostly towards the motherboard. :confused:

UPDATE FOR FORUM MEMBERS - TO INCREASE CHANCES OF GETTING ONE ON LAUNCH DAY!

The following cards are in stock right now and shall be available to order around 14:00 today, quantities are limited and expected to sell out straight away, GOOD LUCK!

- Gigabyte Eagle
- Gigabyte Gaming
- Asus TUF
- Palit Gaming Pro
- Palit Gaming Pro OC
- Zotac Trinity


Stock arriving over next few days:
- MSI Ventus
- MSI Trio
- Asus TUF
- Palit Gaming Pro
- Gigabyte Eagle
- Gigabyte Gaming
- Zotac Trinity


The numbers incoming are limited, as such the majority will probably be waiting until October to receive a card, as demand at launch will seriously out strip supply this month.

Unfortunately hitting MSRP has proven tough, the MSRP's were set when the pound was 1.33-1.34 this can easily be confirmed by checking charts, and stock has been arriving at OcUK purchased at rates of 1.27-1.29 as such MSRP's are a real struggle. Brands are working with us to allow us to hit MSRP, but unless the pound recovers back to 1.33-1.34 levels then the prices will go up by approximately £30-£40 a card, so do be warned, pre-ordering will save you money but the window of opportunity to do so shall be slim, potentially minutes at 14:00


October shipments are looking much more plentiful, plus hopefully Brexit discussions will find a positive outcome and thus MSRP's shall be met again but unfortunately I cannot predict where the pound shall be in a weeks or months time it could get better and thus prices go back to MSRP (1.33-1.34) or it stays where it is now and prices remain higher or it gets worse.......

Be patient, we do expect huge demand come 14:00 and I realise that many of you won't be getting a card tomorrow so we ask for you to be patient please as we shall be working hard to secure as much more future allocation as possible to meet demand.

NVIDIA have a truly incredible product and you also get the FREE Watch Dogs and GeForce NOW promotion when buying from OcUK also.

This is a heads up for OcUK forum members only, don't post it on other websites it is to give you guys better odds of getting one on release day.

Less than one hour and counting.

Also we have left all cards listed as Pre-Order, even the in stock cards, this is simply again to give forum members a better chance but also because we feel as our website updates every 60s and due to cache can take longer it will help avoid disappointment from customers placing orders for cards showing in stock or 10+ when the stock actually sold out whilst they were ordering but due to the 60s cycle or website cache the customer was unaware.

As such OcUK will not display any cards in stock, even though we have stock on above lines. :)


BROWSE ALL 3080 SERIES!

Don't be silly it will be first come first served, no way are they checking orders against forum members. Even if they did they can hardly cancel normal valid orders to do so.

I only raised that because of the leaving the cards in pre-order state in order to give forum members a greater chance comment. I imagined it was first come first serve.
