Wow! Thanks for sharing your experience. That is amazing info you managed of get out of them. I ordered my ROG Strix 3080 on 4th Oct and this morning, I was told that I was at the 'front' of the queue for my GPU and a 5900x was already allocated to me. What that actually means in terms of...
That's interesting. I ordered a ASUS 3080 system on 4th Oct (also upgraded to 5900x) and when I called them this morning, I was told to expect delivery within 7-12 working days and it would definetely be before xmas. But.... I'm still in pre-production status and has been for 41 working days.
Really not clear how the ordering for the new AMD CPUs is going to work. I've already placed an order for a new AMD PC which is on hold until the news CPUs are released. Do I just call them up on 5th Nov to amend the order?
