ARCHIVE - *** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 SERIES STOCK SITUATION *** - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION

[haszek]

Plus gibbo already said they had zero communication about evga supply, that's why probably you can't even preorder now.

I read that people are catching covid from the extra power generated by 3080s, I would cancel your order asap

I’ll take my chances on this one lmao

How on earth can OCUK expect to complete all the orders they have received and will continue to receive any time this side of 2021. Their website is still openly selling the cards as preorder, but I feel it somewhat misleading, considering that those ordering now are unlikely to receive the card till 2021. The least they could do is to inform those purchasing now that there is a large backlog and a considerable delay. Especially given the fact they are taking payment straight away, whereas other firms (mine included) simply take a preauth.

Is there any way to have a general idea how far back in the queue one is for their 3080? I ordered mine at 15:19 on launch day so I think I might be miles behind everyone else, not sure tho.

Cheers

Hang on, business doing business things and its their fault?

Take some responsibility as a consumer and spend a few minutes researching what your getting into..

No, no, that would be too sensible, better to direct your anger and ire at the retailer than the actual real problem here and that is Nvidias paper launch.

I find it sad no one is saying enough is enough from Nvidia, and just bending over again to accept this rubbish from Nvidia

To be honest, we don't know that at this point.

We do know there is little stock in-channel this month.
We do know that the first week of October won't be much better due to 'Golden Week'.
We are told to expect larger volumes of stock in the rest of October

I wouldn't be surprised to see freely available stock of certain cards way before pre-orders for others are delivered though, and you will see smaller quantities of all of the cards popping up in odd places where they either didn't allow pre-orders or had very few.

Just like every other major GPU release really...

I'd rather see people given the choice to join a queue, lock-in a price and wait rather than be told there are no more pre-orders allowed.

That’s not your order number mate. Should begin with 586.

 

[Howling]

Don't want to burst bubbles but he said he thinks anyone after 14:05 wouldn't see a card this month, not 15:00

Ah roger. I knew it was something along those lines

 

[3t3P]

It wasn't a paper launch, they just ran out.

Running out does not equate to paper launch.

For that look to team red

If you have 10 cards to sale, of course you ran out. I think nVidia rushed this so it doesn't collide with AMD's announcement/launch. Card makers needed more time, at least 1-2 more months.

You remove the 586 so you are 65XX in the queue.

So in for the long run then, not too fussed though as long as I have one lined up my 1070 will keep me going for now

Well it depends how many people ordered ASUS TUF

 

[psycho_t]

which with Evga past performance might be January. Last two launches they send all their cards to the American market first and maybe one or two to the uk. People waited over three months for their Evga cards last time,

I've owned cards from almost every manufacturer going back almost 20 years now, and this was the first time I went with EVGA. If it takes 3 months to show up, it's going to be the last time.

I got same model 50 minutes before yours and you are 2500 orders behind. Damm that's quite high demand

Nvidia screwed up this release again. Why release anything without much stock? They should've delayed until they had accurate stock available. Another greedy move.
