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

I guess that if it is listed as the earliest ETA then it should still be one of the first batches they receive. eg. the FTW with ETA 3rd should be there before cards with ETA 17th, or possibly not I don't know.

Competitor says not expecting until 30th of june, and other says 17th, so damn I hope it is earlier than that, this 5870 + x34 combo is getting very tedious now!!

I assume a lot of them will be basing the dates on new orders. If you think OCUK has 300+ of the FTW cards pre-ordered then realistically you may be looking at end of June.

I would be surprised if we see any of the non FE editions for any manufacturer before mid-June myself.

AFAIK EVGA SC is 3rd june? although midjune is their first custom board

I am beginning to assume that 27th May on the pre-orders of the Inno3D cards was wrong and should have been 27th June.

Nothing from OCUK yet, might have to put a call in to clarify.

I spoke to OCUK this morning and the guy (can't recall his name) said they were expecting delivery of the EVGA FTW cards this Friday but he also warned that there are LOTS of pre orders and it's not clear how many cards they will receive in the first batch. I only ordered yesterday so I'm probably #210 in the queue.

I'll be first batch. I ordered right after 2 pm 27th ,but I did get stuck because the site crashed.

They have taken my money out, does that mean anything? lol

 

[roysters]

yes, they are a bit richer now. ;p

 

[roysters]

In seriousness, its strange they take the money out for a pre-order. Usually on dispatch.

MSI have become the new ASUS, price gouging to the max

 

[m4rmite]

I'm going blind reading all the 1080 info

All i want to know is the the day i can click "buy" , looking at the inno 3d https://www.overclockers.co.uk/inno...graphics-card-c108v3-2sdn-p6dn-gx-061-in.html

and the ....did MSI change their prices
https://www.overclockers.co.uk/msi-...dr5x-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-323-ms.html
wasn't it less than this a few days ago

I am settling for the 17th ish on the FTW. If it comes earlier, sweet but I really doubt it.

Once stock hits the channel you could probably Buy buy one on the 17th anyway

 

[Jono8]

Why are msi pricing themselves out of the market? They used to be one of the more reasonably priced but good brands. Now they seem to have gone all Asus on us.

I have bought one and there is quite a few Pre-orders, so not sure on that.

I feel like there will definitely be an adjusting of MSI prices. Current prices make no sense.

Tell me about t. They also seem to use that same boring looking red cooler on everything.

 

[NirK]

That EVGA cooler looks nice and big on the classified.

The Gaming X is strangely expensive given that the much cheaper Armor model uses the exact same fancy custom PCB. Charging £80 more for a slightly bigger cooler and a backplate is bizarre.
