Has anyone returned a formerly water-blocked card that has had the stock cooler remounted (properly remounted, and not some catastrophic tim smeared mess) to gigabyte and had their RMA refused? it's difficult to find positives as people only really complain about issues they have or are having...

Well someone above 730 in the Asus tuf OC will get their card sooner as I managed to get a Gigabyte Vision 3080 by sheer good timing from somewhere else. It's awesome, but going from a 1660ti to the 3080 I have noticed the heat output is massively increased. Such an improvement, its feels like...

Doh... Thanks. What's Asus attitude in cooler removal, I can't find any recent info. Has anyone heard or seen any RMA issues posted?

@Gibbo are you expecting to open up orders for any of the factory waterblock fitted 3080s any point soon, or is it well into new year? Thanks.

Missed the FE drops again sat in a meeting, has anyone mentioned the length of the inno3d frostbite queue. I'm wondering if it will open up before my tuf oc ships (900 ish)

I cancelled it, from what I have read palit are a big no for cooler removal. I'll hang on for my tuf and try snag something with a block on while I wait. What was interesting is their system hadn't converted it into an order... So may not have got it anyway.

Well I managed to order a palit 3080 gaming Pro oc from a competitor today. I'm 900 ish in the queue for a tuf oc. Problem is the palit was £ 849. I'm thinking of cancelling the palit in the morning and waiting. Ideally I want a card with waterblock, but I havent seen any available. Anyone...

Has anyone mentioned the inno3d frostbite queue. I'm in the queue for a tufOC, but it'll be easiest if I get a block preinstalled with warranty.

It will be cancellations. I'm going to give it until the start of the new year and see what's happening.

So just got my 3080 tuf queue update 937 from 962. So 25 places in a week. So 37.5 weeks So Tuesday the 24th of August 2021

Has anyone said they have had a Asus 3080 tuf OC shipped since the updates dried up ?

Yes. :p

So a competitor just changed my 3060 order for delivery 9th to STOCK ERROR.... It's almost funny. So I may not have a stop gap

That's not on at all...

Well I just snagged a 3060. Can't work out if to use it a stop gap and sell later hoping I don't loose much by the time my tuf oc turns up. I'm 1000 in queue. Or just keep it and forget about 4k ultra

Going to have to get a stop gap at this rate... I'm building first pc for son later next year, I might invest in his card early. Anyone got some 150 quid ideas? I'm thinking 1660 for 1080p

I dropped 171 places to 962 for the Asus tuf oc. Iv been so close to bagging one from elsewhere, but always gone at checkout. Think my luck must change before it's my turn at overclockers

Gibbo did say the cryptic term for was it 50 to 100 being due in. I'll find out tomorrow if I'm below 1000

So tempting I'm in Redcar lol..... need a 3080 for 4k. Just seen zotac 3080 amp holo on an alert site for Germany. I was in the queue for one of them but it seemed hopeless. if they start shipping might change my tuf oc

And I sold my 1660 TI before launch expecting a price drop in the 2nd hand market (only lost 70 quid). Now iv got a 10 year old AMD blower style card (doesn't even do 4k output so I'm upscaling onscreen) with the world's loudest fan... so 10 weeks with music apps HL2 and assetto Corsa on minimum...
