Hi OcUK fans and staff,
So I know OcUK will be inundated with support tickets right now so my question might not be answered officially for a while, so I'm asking you fine people who will know their standard processes.
So I've pre-ordered a 5070Ti (I know, I shouldn't have done it, but I'm rocking a 1080Ti and the finance option made it a no brainer for me). I also ordered a Intel Arc A50 (for the time that pays for gaming).
Both on the same order on the finance option that can be paid off in 12 months interest free or spread over 4 years after that... Although I'll be clearing it in 12 months or less, hence it made sense to me.
During the basket process it said "Your basket contains a preorder item, this will be sent separately" or words to that effect.
Now my order sits as "Order Confirmed", that's it. Nothing dispatched yet.
So do they keep the A50 to one side while we wait for the 5070Tis come back in stock? Or do they pick and pack once everything is in stock and just hope the A50s don't sell out before then? Or can they split the order? With the increased margins on the 5070Tis over MSRP, I've probably paid enough for them to profit on the cost of delivery twice if they bounce them off Australia first, but that's the same everywhere... Supply and demand pricing. And nowhere else had the A50s so you guys won.
