Queue Position 1, 5600X

[SirDank]

Ordered my 5600X at 14:07pm yesterday and just received the email that I am in queue position 1.

Just wanted to clarify, does this mean I am the first person to not get a CPU out of the current stock and will need to wait for the next batch?

If so, I was so close, yet so far. Good to be first though I suppose. Also, hope this gives some others an idea on wait times.

I'm in position 402, think we will get the CPU around late November still ?

Edit: Just saw Robsternasher's response just before mine, hopefully true.

I saw one post of the forums saying the next batch was the 30th. But I'd be very surprised if stock comes in that slow.

So it was a another paper launch. I bought 2 5900x one for me and one for my dads christmas present. Managed to get an order in at Awd -IT but they have gone suspiciously quiet and wont answer the phone. I got an order at ****** too (whilst is was showing as in stock I might add)... rang them today and they are now saying it was a pre order, so I told them where to stick it.

As usual... another launch, another disappointment... as for OCuk well... the website crashes on a normal day so there was bugger all chance of getting one here.

I would love to know what the stock levels where like...

I was a bit late ordering ordered a 5800x yesterday. I'm in queue position 336. I wasn't expecting these to go live until 5pm.

I don't have a huge issue waiting for it for a bit but Im a bit annoyed about the fact that I also paid for a next day delivery...if I wasnt getting it straight away, i'm not bothered about waiting for delivery!

@SirDank your position 1 in the pre orders next batch to come in youll be first i had my order placed at for the same 5600x at 1.56pm so i assume i was one of the first if not he first because it was no lag straight through and completed within 15 seconds and my 5600x got shipped yesterday

Queue position 3 for me. Was going to cancel and order something else in stock. Not sure whether to just hold on

Read the 5000 series thread in Latest News. Big update from Gibbo. Next batch due Wed/Thu.

@gib73 might aswell hold on this launch hasnt been bad i can imagine within a week more will be in if you cancel your just gonna end up further down someone else queue

 

[gib73]

Gonna hang then @dean malone

Another week to wait ok

At this point I'm surprised that any of you are surprised at these paper launches and that you have to wait ages for your orders to come through. This seems to be the new status quo with hardware releases, so why torture yourselves? Isn't it stressful constantly checking queues and chasing up orders? Why not just chill for a bit and order things when they're in stock? You're not buying life support equipment after all.

 

[dean malone]

can be frustrating i got lucky with my order its on the way already but im in your position for the 3070 going mad to get it but im 114

I attempted to grab a 5600x from OCuk at just before 2; website blew up shortly afterwards and couldn't get past the payment screen before the stock was out. I managed by sheer blind luck to get one of the last bits of stock from a competitor, about 4min before they ran out as well. My left index finger has "f5" tattooed in reverse on it from all the feverish refreshing I did!

I imagine the AMD 6xxx series graphics card launch is going to be much the same!
