Shame I didn't get one. Queue position 184 but I am assuming this doesn't take into account pre-builds, which is probably a whole other queue. Am guessing most of the received CPUs went into those, so 220 in stock != 220 getting shipped to people in the queue...

No reason given just that they didn't have the stock ive tried calling waited 45 minutes no answer but I've sent a reply to the message they sent me and awaiting a response. I have been patient till now because we all know theres a stock issue and I accepted that but when they say they have 220 in stock and I'm number 200 on the que i expect my cpu. I know of another retailer that was expecting over 200 and only received half of the order if this is the case tell us that dont say you have 220 IN STOCK

Any chance you can let us know what happens cheers bud!

Likely RMA's mate.
I've seen on the AMD subreddit there are plenty of RMA's of 5950's going on.

My 5800x order is at 327 as of 20th, there much chance its going to move more this week than the paltry 22 positions it moved last time? :confused:

Because at this rate its going to be well into the start of next year by the looks of it before theres any chance.

At £900 on eBay is not exactly a profitable endeavour though, they would just make back what they paid for it if it came from OCUK with delivery once eBay and PayPal took their cut.

from what has been mentioned before OCUK have different stock for pre built machines to retail stuff (they mentioned it under the 30xx series thread) so this will not really matter.

Presume they would have OEM stock coming in on trays of CPUs for pre-builds. Doubt they sit there opening retail boxes

@Gibbo are you able to advise on the current situation with the 5900X? The last update I recall was that a batch of 300 x 5900X were expected on 24/11/2020. I've been monitoring this thread as well as the locked post and blog and not seen any update. It would be nice to know if these dates have slipped again or if the CPUs are expected imminently. I'm likely in the same boat as many, based on my queue position my order should get filled with this shipment, as I have a computer missing a CPU I'm eagerly awaiting any update, good or bad.

I was thinking the same, but it would be unusual for a retailer to retain stock for RMA purposes. I would think the most likely issue here is that they did not get in the units they thought they did, and the original post miss spoke about having units in hand. (This seems likely as the post happened 2 days before shipping) or it is a retailer initiated RMA. I don't know what, if any, quality checks OCuk apply on stock but perhaps a number of units had to be returned to the supplier.

Either way, you can see that OCuk staff are really getting punished for providing updates here. So it's hardly surprising the reasons have not been provided. Someone a week from now would correlated unrelated pieces of informations to infer underhanded dealings. I'm honestly surprised at the some of the feelings expressed here.

This is what we need.

Last update noted 24th as expected delivery date. Most recent update (24/11) states, "Unfortunately, we don’t have any updates on the other shipments."

So, the 5900x just didn't show up and your distributor hasn't said why or what the new date is? That seems unlikely to me. All we're asking for is transparency.

Any news on the 5600x? Anyone received one in the past week?

I was Position 16 for the 5600x as of the update last friday. My order status is still "order recieved - not yet shipped".

ZoboZodiac · 26 Nov 2020 at 13:07

@Gibbo please can we have an update on 5900X as the last update said there was 300 expected two days ago. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Grumpyoldfart · 26 Nov 2020 at 14:03

If there are that many rma's there is a big problem.

MohammedJ · 26 Nov 2020 at 15:08

Just cancelled my pre-order for the 5600x "que 301".

All above 300 in the queue thank you

Miami · 26 Nov 2020 at 15:22

I dont mind waiting for it to come, but the lack of updates is dissapointing would be nice to be kept in the loop.

I know I am atleast going up 1 space this week for a 5600X I wonder what time they will send out queue position updates this week

You're welcome, reason I cancelled, found a small retailer you assured me I should get the 5600x by the end of next week or the beginning of the week after, depending on which batch I'll be part of.
