** NVIDIA RTX 30 SERIES NOW ONLINE AT OVERCLOCKERS UK (3090 / 3080 / 3070) **

Lads the cards launched on Thursday afternoon, Asia are like 8 hours ahead of us, then we had a weekend where people wouldn't have been about. Im as keen to get a formative update as the next guy, but you're all acting like this information they can access easily and aren't bothering to pass on or something. There will be dozens of dozens of retailers in the UK alone, all trying to figure out distribution from multiple different suppliers for multiple different versions of the card, its obvously going to take more than a quick call email to a contact to sort out some sort of meaningful solution.

I mean I have no specific affinity to OCUK or anything as a brand, Ive used them for a GPU and a Monitor in the past and thats it, but people need to think about the logistics of what unpicking this *********** would actually entail, it's not some insidious plot to mug off their customers
I'm not doubting what you're saying at all I just think it would be nice to have some clarification on what is happening when the retailer takes the money off you the day after the purchase.
 
Seems to be a common theme. I just think retailers don’t have a clue when or how many cards they are receiving over the comming weeks, and so are leaving customer’s in the dark.

Yeah could be worse. In Germany alone there was 20,000 of pre-orders for zotac cards and some people have been given an expected delivery date of 21st January 2021!!!!!
 
I dont think it means anything probably a mistake because I spoke to someone at OC who said we dont know when we will have any more of your cards in stock :(
 
"We also shipped a very small amount of MSI today, tomorrow we expect a small amount of Palit cards.


P.S. A small amount of Zotac and Gigabyte also shipped, we are getting small deliveries almost daily which is better than nothing."
 
Still not allowed to share specific number of cards, NVIDIA really have got them all over a barrel, its tragic and ridiculous at the same time.

They are obviously ashamed of just how few they had, and don't want to be labelled as effective paper launch, they'd rather do a gov.uk and bend the truth to fit their narrative or "unprecedented demand"

Yup, it's like an apple launch, shipping a small amount of product just so they can claim they sold out due to a big demand. If they had actually shipped a large amount of gpu's they'd be giving the numbers and bragging about it, the fact they're conveniently omitting numbers says it all.
 
I'm cancelling my order for my Ventus, ordered a 3080 Gigabyte Eagle for 850 off the bay, ironically bought from here , screw waiting 2 to 3 months for a low 3080.
