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

[copiedright]

All these people thinking OC are raking it in with interest payments. There isn't a single account in the country of any description that will pay anything close to what would be required to see any form of worthwhile return and if the exchange rate blows the wrong way they'll be lucky not to lose money on the first cards bought unless they were already paid for.

Yeah. In fact this whole thing is probably a real PITA for OCUK. Sure they will make a bit of margin, but this is just a spike in demand, and spikes in demand aren't what businesses want. They are probably scrambling to make things work, while most of their resources are stretched. And that's on top of having to deal with obsessed customers like us. I wouldn't want us as customers!

On a related note... Where is my 3080?!

Well Nvidia new Driver today fixed the problem . Boosts are now locked in games so it does not crash...... well done Nvidia .... some peeps are reporting a boost in games so its looking good....
So there is indeed nothing wrong with the cards.

Just wanted people know about my order lmao as it has confused the f outta me, apparently my order for the MSI Ventus was made on the 16th at 18:36, wonder if this puts me at the front of the queue (obviously i doubt it as it was more like 3pm on the 17th)

 

[Transform_IT]

Any hint as too which competitor this is as I have also ordered a gigabyte from a competitor?

Four letter word that is often associated with Printers... Based in Bolton. They have a re-stock list on their website which they update daily. I spoke to them Friday and they said providing their quoted numbers come from the manufacturers on 30th, then based on my position in the pre-order queue (ordered at 14:07) then I will more than likely receive a dispatch email that evening, for delivery the following day. Fingers crossed, as I am currently using my IGPU and can't game

Ordered the Ventus at 15:15 on the 17th.

A guy who bought the card at 14:50 got his order a week ago.

So we're both close.

Haha damn.

I had an order email at 14:05 but 2 further emails confirming the order status and then payment approved 4 hours later.

I still don't have a card.

 

[DannyOrange]

Anyone know how long it takes them to approve the cancelation?

Thanks.

Of a Ventus? Shouldn't have received it yet, still waiting on mine and I was before

 

[Chris.avi]

has been a very strange time for sure, i've heard of people who pre-ordered at 7pm and already have their cards, hope you get yours soon

 

[Transform_IT]

Hope it works out for you!

Me too, but not holding my breath. They have lied to me already, we shall see...

@Transform_IT

Apologies, order was made at 14:13 and order confirmation came through at 15:46.

No worries!

So my order was 14:05pm. Order confirmation came through immediately but order status email and then payment approved email both arrived at 14:43pm and 14:53pm.

Crossing my fingers for us both buddy!

Suspect I’ll be waiting a while for my TUF OC (about 550 in unofficial queue, although with the recent news from OC I’m hoping more like 200-300), but no major rush. Want it under a water block anyway and they’ve only just appeared on EKWB site for delivery late October... hope OC get some in!!

This is from them:

Me: Will I receive my card next week?

Competitor: I cant confirm que positions, however when the stock arrives you are in a very good position

Me: So, are you saying with the next stock allocation (30th), I will receive my order?

Competitor: We are expecting our shipment to arrive on the 30th, i would advise to keep a close eye on your emails to confirm arrival of the stock and tracking emails
