Just had a reply from OCUK web note support.
So get this right they refuse to give me an update saying management won't let them.
I **** you not they genuinely are saying they can not update me on stock arrival expectations because higher ups refuse to give out the info.
@Gibbo this is abysmal customer service your firm has.

love coming in this thread and seeing comments like this, stinks of entitlement.
Wait or get a refund, quiet simple.
Leave your attitude at the door please.
If someone's already parted with their money, they've every right to chase a retailer for an update on delivery of the goods.

Why? The queue email was sent to customers who didn't get a cpu on day 1. Gibbo clearly said in the other thread that the 300 5900x weren't expected with the distributor until the 24th (this was on the 11th) . Assuming they arrive on time, and in this climate that's far from a given, they may be with OCUK some point this week. There was also some unofficial stock expected too, which could be part of the movement in the queue or have gone into prebuilt systems.

Latest bios? If it's the SAM enabled beta, you might want to downgrade (or upgrade to it if you haven't tried it).

Gibbo provides daily updates on stock, plus you've got the queue emails.
It's well documented that you'd be put in a queue, at least that way you'll actually get one rather than constantly visiting websites daily to try and find one.

Same as in the Nvidia thread for over 2 months. No news means no news. And no need to shoot the messenger, you should call AMDs support hotline rather than OCUK.
I personally think queues are not worth the hassle judging by the volume of angry people. OcUK seem to agree judging by the AMD 6000 series GPU launch.
This. The people asking for updates basically just want to hear their product is shipping now, that’s all they’re interested in.
The Zen 3's are great at CPU heavy gaming - best you can get.
I'd agree from what i've seen too, I was just wondering if anyone had any first hand knowledge of in game performance for these types of games

Ah, well in that case if you hang around the thread for 6 months I'll report back when I get mine.

It's the version prior to the SAM beta, figured it was the safer bet but will try the beta anyway just to see if it helps as I'm almost out of other things to try.
On the bright side, at least I didn't cancel my order with OcUK after getting this one as there's no way the shop will have spares to replace with.
People like you are the reason why companies can keep doing what they want, go and pat them on a head, make sure to slip some money before you leave.

I got mine within 7 days of release at less than MSRP. So no, not people like me.

Shut up and be grateful for the wonderful and gracious thing these companies do for you! Don't be so entitled! Yes you may have literally given your money to a company that has not provided a product yet, but moaning about it is entitled - entitled to what exactly? The product you paid for?! Pfft - that stinks of entitlement.

Ah, that's not the way retail works. If Tesco have no milk then I ask Tesco when they'll have it back in. I don't go calling the farmer, or indeed the Dairy group who supplies Tesco.
I don't know who the distributor is that takes care of CPU's transport logistics on behalf of AMD. Of course AMD are chipmakers, not a transport firm or a transport agent (those firms that book transport with logistics firms). Can't imagine AMD providing detailed answers.
I have spoken
So much moanng in this thread.
Everyone is in the same boat even from different suppliers. There is very little information on the supply from any of them or even AMD. If you want the chips you will have to wait and if you don't want to secure your places then cancel your orders. It's moaning for the sake of moaning.
