The GeForce GTX 1080 Is The Best Selling High-End Card Ever Released – AIBs Confirm

Greebo said:
Because its true! in the first week I doubt 10k were sold and shipped. Worldwide numbers are 39K after 3 weeks. Thats an appalling shortage compared with the 100k+ orders.

Yet everytime i make some comment about the lack of stock you jump on my posts with "rubbish, you're talking out of your bum, they have shipped millions, blah, blah blah".

Just admit you are wrong about how many they have shipped graciously :p

You still going? What have I said that has been wrong on this topic? Kindly do link to my posts like I have yours if you think I am wrong. If anything I have probably underestimated the amount they have sold and shipped as well.

You underestimated the amount of cards they have sold, it's ok. :)

Again:

I serious doubt that 1000's of people actually have possession of a 1080.

Yes maybe 10,000+ on pre order but not 1000's shipped.

ANd demand is only outstripping supply cause AIB can only supply 10 a day. When one of the biggest AIB for Nvidia, EVGA have to do daily tweets saying "5 or 10 more delivered today, thats it, come back tomorrow" its not great is it? And thats for them shipping from their own website to the USA only. No preorders shipped yet on EU website. ANd any card launched with a worldwide production of custom cards of approx 100 a day is going to inflate prices.

Pre sold 5000 cards, shipped 200 :p

Gibbo completely said otherwise the day after.

Then you said this:

Personally actually shipping a 1000 in 3 weeks isnt that high and is probably only about 10k worldwide.

Which Gibbo then told you again was complete rubbish.

FFS not complete rubbish. I Guessed a 1000 shipped by ocuk, Gibbo confirmed that was right at the time. It was only the worldwide wrong. My guess have being more accurate that yours.

Now they have shipped 2000.

I guess that if ocuk being the biggest seller in uk and europe (which Gibbo confirmed) then prehaps worldwide sales would be only 10k.

Gibbbo confirmed thats its more like 19k.

Thats not widely wrong. My 10,000 preorder, 200 shipped comment was clearly tong in cheek in response to the previous poster. hence the smiley. It was less than I had suggested they had shipped a handful of posts earlier in my sensible post. So please dont take funny posts out of context to prove a point.

However, you said this at the same times.

They have sold 1000's (probably tens of thousands) at nicely inflated prices, that is all they care about .

...and yes they did come first. You could buy a 1080 on the 27th May and you wont be able to buy an RX480 till the 29th June. By definition, they came first :p

Easily! I bet just ocuk have probably shipped hundreds already! Did you not see the amount of stock that came in every few days on the first few weeks of release and sold out instantly!

Globally it will be thousands, if not tens of thousands shipped.

So this huge amount of stock which then Gibbo confirmed the day after as a massive 435 in the second week which was a massive step up from the first weeks delivery. After all in 3 weeks Gibbo confirmed they shipped a 1000. Thats 333 a week.

But you do seem to be agreeing with me there with your posts. You said globally it would be thousands, if not tens of thousands shipped yet the same day I posted that ocuk will have shipped a 1000 and 10,000k shipped globally I was suddenly an idiot and totally wrong.

So its okay for you to post basically the same estimates as me, im slightly under, your slightly over but you keep posting against me and quoting me?:confused:

You seem to have an issue with me and I dont like it. Grow up and move on and drop it.

lol?

You just posted my replies to the posts you posted saying you were wrong, which you were.:confused:

You underestimated how many they sold and shipped. That is all there is to say.

Anyone can see that and there is really nothing more to say. There is no need to get silly and start telling me to grow up :)

In west GIFadelphia born and raised
On the GIFground was where he spent most of his days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all GIFS
And all shooting some GIFS outside of the school
When a couple of guys who were up to no GIFS
Started making trouble in my GIFFERhood
I got in one little GIF and my mom got scared
She said 'You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in GIF-Air'
