Aaaaaaand I'm built and in test! (5600, 3080)
Ordered 11th Nov and went pre pro at 13th, 90 working days
Red alert for anyone who ordered early to mid November right now, and late November should be in a couple of weeks!
Grats :) Thought about changing the 3080 for the 3090 but there's quite a price difference that's a bit out of my budget. Seems like that line is a lot brisker than the 3080 line of cards.
Now I have no idea how supply chains work, but I assume eventually a large order of 30 series hardware will come in and as a result, a large portion of orders at the front of the queue will start getting ticked off.
The 970 has been great to me too. I replaced my old 580 after it melted in 2015 with a 970, and for 1080p gaming, it was a fantastic card. I never felt the need to upgrade.
Until I bought a 1440p 144hz monitor that is. Then I felt the need to consider an upgrade, and the 30 series reveal was...
I asked about my queue position for the stock 3080 in the live chat a couple of days ago, and the guy told me they didn't have any information on queue positions for specific parts. So now I'm doubting my own sanity.
