    I ordered a out 5 days before it arrived, got lucky with 3080s in stock. The company I ordered from also have a 4 week wait minimum on 3080s now

    I've got a ryzen 3600x, h100i,Gamerock OC 3080, 750w Corsair semi modular. 16gb 3600mhz Corsair vengeance black RGB, 1TB ADATA SSD, 2tb barracuda HD. A bit off from my ideal spec, but I figured id take the plunge as I might regret waiting. Now just the wait for downloads!

    Trustpilot seems to suggest otherwise but there's always a chance 😄

    I can't imagine them being the most popular choice at their price point. From what I understand they had a delivery this week and actually advertised as having available stock. I have been told that the 3080 in my build is the Palit Gamerock OC

    I've received an email from them confirming it's been dispatched, they genuinely built it in 1 day (I paid 75 pounds for the privilege) they gave me a DPD consignment number which checks out as valid on the DPD website confirming it will be with me tomorrow

    I paid a premium for more or less an identical build. My build with PCS come out around 2172, my build with other company was 2300, with a poorer PCIe 3.0 SSD.

    I've cancelled my PCS order as they didn't deal with my complaint appropriately. Ordered via other means on Thursday and will receive my 3080 build tomorrow by 11am. Won't post the name of company here however

    Yeah, mainly via email so I can dig that up. Have asked PCS to raise as a complaint. Thanks

    Scott thank you for explaining the way PCS operate, it makes sense that it would be a logistical nightmare to reserve 3080s for builds awaiting other parts. The gripe here is that a lot of what you are saying is at odds with the experience we've had. For example, I emailed PCS last week to...

    Agreed, like others have said PCS are doing what they can. I don't buy Nvidia saying it's a 'phenomenon' that these cards have sold out... Surely you can gauge interest from loads of places pre launch (Google searches/page visits etc). Let's hope Big Navi next month forces them to release some...

    Yup same as mine - looking like next week I'd imagine

    So below is the basics of my conversation with them, my first question was what's the likelihood of receiving before Xmas due to mass 3080 shortages. Like mentioned in the email, I called PCS on 9th to confirm that the actual build date looks set for next week, and this wasn't just an operative...
