Not sure, just lucky I guess. I tried to access my account after ordering, but the website was pretty dead at that point so it feels like a miracle that I was able to get the order in so quickly.

Ive gone for pre order on MSI X trio - taken me all day to get this order in just now ! Bit of a joke , As long as it comes in the next 2-3 weeks ill be happy ! Its its any longer ill be very very unhappy.
MSI been getting some good reviews online so I think its the right one for me and my last MSI 1080ti never let me down once.
This chap here gives it the thumbs up https://youtu.be/wV0lcDLz6UI

Sure but take the Tuff card from Asus. Its got great write ups right? The cooler has been really praised. Why couldn't they make the exact same cooler (no complaints with it), but instead of adding an angular shroud with fake tyre tracks all on it and 'logos' emblazened on it, just make a sleek looking minimalist metalic shroud?
Wow. I was watching today with interest because I want a 3090 next week. I’ve spent a lot of money with OCUK over the years, but unless there’s a “we ****** up, sorry, here’s a refund to correct the sudden price jump” then they won’t see any more money from me. You don’t move the goalposts on customers mid-purchase. It’s not right, and if it wasn’t an accident then it shows they just don’t care.
They're still doing the "gamer" thing, or what corporations think gamers want.

Ha their 'AI' didn't foresee the 'unprecedented demand' they have apparantly had. Unprecedented? Everyone else knew this would happen today, how could they not?
Its like when a call centre has an automated message saying they have 'higher than normal demand'. No they don't, they just don't have enough staff.
Should have just ordered the FE......

Yep even a basic captcha would have gone a long way to stop what we saw today....
Spamming refresh every 3 seconds, goes from "Notify me" to "out of stock" in 3 seconds.
Totally legit buyers i'm sure....

My order was processed at 14:33 and I received a confirmation email at 19:07 (Zotac card). No idea when it will get shipped.
From the reviews the fe seems to be the best choice, the third party cards only offer very minimal gains for increased price.
Lol and I was hoping my 5PM order will be shipped by the weekend. Prob weeks
I am in almost the exact same boat.
Order processed at 14:30, got my email just after 19:00.
No other details yet
This is the one I had my eyes on for quite a while and luckily managed to get an order it fairly quickly but no idea when it will be shipped. I was just happy to get an order in and just forget about all the madness. The reviews have been really good from what I've seen, cools well, very quiet and performs better than the FE due to higher boost clocks

Ah the FEw and far between edition.
Very true, but i was mainly just taking the mick as there was no chance the FE was obtainable.

I was tempted but with a £40 markup and no guarantee. OcUK could have my hard earned for almost a month before stock. That just doesnt sit well with me. I'd have bitten at the RRP
