I have not installed my 5950x yet maybe this is why:
"Each code can only be redeemed once.
You can redeem the code until 30.01.2021.
Your new AMD product must be installed on the system you are redeeming your promotional code on."

Did anyone get shipping notification for 5950x at the other place yesterday???

I had 5950x shipped notification today. I ordered on launch day and ended up being 330 in the queue when the full queue was something about 580 people. Then I was about 120 last week and today CPU is shipped after they received 100 units, so I guess at least 20 people must have cancelled or I wouldn't get it.
So the queue for 5950x is getting really small now, they might put them on the website next time they receive stock as all the preorders will be fulfilled.

Is this with OcUK? I was 91 last week and no shipped notification.

Not with overchargers, I was replying to a guy who asked about other place (where I got 5950x for £750) :cool:
I also got my notification (3:30am) but my silly outlook app on my phone is pants at pulling down emails. HoHoHo, 750 for me too :)
I tried to redeem farcry code but i think u need the 5950x installed, tomorrow it is then, cant wait!

Come one @Gibbo your surely must have some info on the 5600x from your distributers, given what other companies are sharing - such as receiving 164 pieces this week and more due next week.

Mmmm... Not going to pay inflated prices. However, as 5950x seems to be popping up more frequently at 750, I might be tempted to 'max' my upgrade. Just need to convince myself that I really do need it coming from a 3900x... Either that or wait another few months.

5950X seems to be more in stock now. No need to pay stupid prices thankfully.

Noticed a bit more availability in the market today, hopefully that's a good sign and not just people pressing buttons on their website admin pages

How do I go about adding my name to a preorder for a 5900x? or are OCUK not taking preorders anymore?

Not at the moment. The 5900x has the largest pre-order queue (around 1,000 now?) so it probably won't re-open until the new year when substantial stock has been received.

Managed to get in quick on a competitor for a preorder of a 5600x.

I have a X570 Tomahawk, new memory and NVME sat ready to build. I had ordered a 3700x as a stop gap thinking it would be months before I could grab a 5600x.
