I ordered a gaming X Trio the day after they went live. 18th at 13:21. Order no 1061.

Ah well, expected a wait anyway!

Well due to who knows what weirdness my 15:16 order on the 17th is nearly 100 after yours in the queue...

Honestly I have nothing to add, just quoteing you so I can find your post quickly if my call to customer service ever actually gets through to point to and say "look, it can't even be my bank being slow, they say the money left was taken on the 17th".

Yep, I am in queue position 339. I didn't order till 23:30 on the launch day so were you after me?

Yep also wondering that, as that is a lot of cards to ship before they get to mine. Doesn't seem to say anywhere particularly/

Yup, well after. I originally was getting a TUF OC - didnt change my mind until the next day.

I'm assuming the position in the Q is for the specific card that we ordered and not just the position for the 3080 in general?

I think it must be - no way I'd be in the double digits at almost three hours late otherwise!

This is kinda the problem. People wanted queue information (rightly so) and now we get it. Problem is there's no context unless we know how many cards they are getting shipped. The email says it will update after each shipment so hopefully everyone will get at least 2 emails a week and increasing as time goes on.

They won't be able to give us any other context as they won't know what they are getting too far ahead and estimates will be taken as in blood promises so I don't really see what else OCUK can do honestly.

It's a piece of the puzzle, at least. We've had people getting snippets of info from manufacturers about shipping, we've got things coming across on Twitter, and now we have queue positions as well - it's building up a picture (albeit a fuzzy one), which is a lot better than nothing!

100% is for a specific card, it would be pretty useless if for the position of a 3080 in general.

Hey all, I ordered the Zotac GeForce RTX 3080 Trinity OC on the 29th September and I am 24th in the queue. Not sure how many they're getting in but seems to be a low queue card for those interested. On unofficial I was queue position 900 and something.

morta · 2 Oct 2020 at 14:59

I orded my 3080 msi gaming trio on the 19th at 930am and my queue number is 1125, which I way lower than expected, I have hope of a delivery before Christmas. Let's hope November they ramp up production!!

Sweeet · 2 Oct 2020 at 15:08

Don't forget, the email states we'll get an email after each shipment is dispatched with our new queue number, so we'll know soon enough the kind of shipment size and frequency. Just make sure to update this thread as and when we receive them to keep everyone in the loop.

Credit where credit is due - OcUK have delivered through with their promise of a queue position and it's great to hear there will be updates following shipments.

Today's email puts me in 1203 spot for a 3080 TUF non OC. I hope it will be worth the wait!

Saturday 19th... I was trying to order on the 17th but I couldn't get on the site and I must have lost hope on Fri 18th. Oh well it is what it is.

"You are currently in queue position 380. Please keep checking your emails, we will send an update after each shipment with your new position."

And obviously this only applies for cards they are actively shipping...

Noro Sama · 2 Oct 2020 at 15:26

Thank you for your pre-order for the Asus GeForce RTX 3090 ROG Strix Gaming OC 24GB GDDR6X PCI-Express Graphics Card on order 588XXXX.

You are currently in queue position 272. Please keep checking your emails, we will send an update after each shipment with your new position.

Will update when I receive for emails with que position changes, might have to buy a 20 series card to tide me over for now.

Kiev the Great · 2 Oct 2020 at 15:27

TUF OC, calculator gave position as 1109. Email gives 329. Still be a bit of a wait, but feeling a lot more optimistic now! Might even see it this year with some luck.

Edit: ordered at 00:12 on the 19th September

view1 · 2 Oct 2020 at 15:29

Ordered 19:50 on 20 September
Que number 475
3080 Tuf OC
£730 inc postage :-/

Hoping the delay is until after more AMD news on performance and at rrp. Or maybe other sites with a rrp and possibly stock due to not offering a preorder.
Hope amazon gets stock tbh.

I'll add that to my "orders made well after mine, but with a better queue number" list. You were 42 hours after me.

*stay calm. don't shout at customer service. this isn't their fault*

I like your delivery optimism though. I keep assuming the current 30ish every two weeks might hold, which I know is excessively pessimistic, but it is funny to do the maths and work out dates in 2022.

yea thats the email i got aswell. but this card is not out yet. they have not even reviewd it yet. so thats impossible. the full spec is not even listed on gigabyte website yet. the master edition is the only card thats been given a release and they said sometime this month..ther was no mention of a release for the xtreme.
