** OcUK HAS 21 CUSTOM GTX 1080 MODELS READY FOR PRE-ORDER !! **

Hi Gibbo.
If I cannot swap then when can I expect my xtreme card to arrive ?
You mentioned before that you speak to MD/CEO.
At the moment it looks like they are not planning to even sell standard Xtreme.
I understand it's not your fault but understand also me as a customer.
As I said, other queues are live, mine is dead.
Thanks

Let me ask Gigabyte again, when I asked last they said Extreme PP would be the first batch, but I think it is about time they produced some regular Extremes, will come back to you. :)
 
Thanks for understanding Gibbo

Sorry to be a pain. I do appreciate your support.

Its not a problem.

The issue is I am finding the partners infuriating, I know they are also not to blame as NVIDIA have a lack of supply of GPU and lack of GDDR5X does not help matter but this launch has being hugely stressful.

Over 50 different 1080 SKU's to manage, half of which are always in and out of stock and we can never get enough and communication half the time is weak at best.
 
Hi there


As expected:

20x EVGA 1080 SC arrived and shipping (16 more due end of next week)
70x EVGA 1080 FTW arrived and shipping (some left spare for fresh orders)

40x MSI 1080 Armor OC arrived (Plenty spare)
7x MSI 1080 Seahawk X arrived

50x Inno3D 1080 X3 arrived (Plenty spare)
5x Inno3D 1080 X4 arrived (Some spare)

10x Gigabyte 1080 Waterforce arrived (Some spare)
10x Gigabyte 1080 Extreme PP more arrived (Plenty spare)

100+ more Zotac AMP & AMP Extreme 1080 arrived, few hundred of each in stock now. :)


So not a bad say so far, Inno3D turned up early and some little surprises from MSI.
 
Thanks for the info Gibbo(:

Now its time to randomly check my inbox out of anticipation!!!!!

Warehouse only just started shipping and they have 500+ orders to do get out today, they will be done but might take a few hours until you get that all important email notification. :)
 
Hi there

Not such great news today.

KFA2 got me some China allocation but all they could get was 10pc 1080 EX OC and 10pc HOF which will arrive next week. No blowers unfortunately.

Gigabyte then gave bad news that no Extreme regular 1080 will be available until end of August.
 
Hi Gibbo.
Thanks for checking.

With this information, can you please consider now my question about swapping to PP ?
Queue for Xtreme is probably short anyway as don't see any other people interested in this card on this thread (other than me :) )
3 months waiting time is a bit ridiculous. To be honest, last month we also thought that it will be available end of July and now end of August.
I don't blame you or OCUK, just greedy Gigabyte which was my GPU supplier of choice for many years but I think with their policy, it's time to say goodbye to Gigabyte.
If I knew, I would pre-order Asus Strix OC. I know the queue is even longer but now I think it's better card than Xtreme anyway.

Any thoughts Gibbo ? Anything you can do ?
Thanks


You can swap to the PP, but the lowest price I could do you on the PP would be £679.99 so you'd need to pay the difference to this price.

Asus Strix OC will be even longer! Asus Strix Gamer is in stock and I could offer you that at £659.99 if that helps.

If you want to do either of the above, contact CS via CS section linking to my reply here and they shall amend your order. :)
 
Still have my preorder for the Strix OC elsewhere but am barely holding on...

Wont hold my breath but any news from Asus yet regarding these cards Gibbo?

Am close to giving up and getting a FTW or the Gaming Strix from here but am loathed to pay more for what is supposedly a lesser card (out of the box)

Main concern with the Gaming Strix being that - if they are exactly the same bar the stock clocks - surely Asus would be using the better binned chips in the OC model and likewise EVGA holding theirs back for the impending Classified?


Spoke with Asus today, more Advanced Gaming Strix are on the way. Regarding OC cards they are now finally admitting yield is very low, yeah we already new and had guessed this, but now at least they admit it.

They say end of next week they will have an update on OC, now an update from Asus tends to mean no more news, yes we have some and are going to ship you a small amount which will arrive with you in the next 1-3 weeks.

They are simply super slow at everything due to the magnitude of their company.
 
Hi there

All remaining 1080 aero, upgraded to 1080 aero OC free of charge.
EVGA 1080 SC, 16 units landed and cards shipping out. :)
 
Hey Gibbo - Any news on the EVGA Classifieds delivery to you guys? I recall you saying there was a possibility of tomorrow through to Friday? Anything looking more concrete?

Cheers!


Had no email yet, am sure NVIDIA will give me or an update direct on forum in next day or two.
 
Hi there

OK out of the blue:

12x Asus 1080 OC arriving tomorrow!!!!

So great news on the OC, shame it is only 12pc but every unit helps. :)
