RTX 3080

I have same case the Lian Li Lancool II and was told it was in stock and they were only awaiting the GPU for my build!! WTF?

We're all waiting on the GPU at this point unfortunately - just got to hope they get enough in to trickle down

It was more the other person being told his case would be another 30 days

I may have read it wrong. I've only had 3 hours sleep after 12 hour night shift

That person has a Fractal Define 7, same as mine

 

[MarkDelamere37]

Yes read it wrong apologies I'll shut up and try and get more sleep

PCS just confirmed another 30 days wait on Case, CPU and GPU, really considering cancelling my order

Ouch. Which CPU did you go for?

We 3080 folk are climbing the walls to get our PCs

It's getting painful again and I have been told it's not looking good for soon.

What are people's thoughts on changing to the 3090 here? Can one be blamed for giving in after this long, or losing the nerve.

I also am on 97 days pre-production, don't give up, it's not worth changing to the 3090, at this rate we can just amend to the 3080ti and get it quicker

I think the current difference in price between the two is about £800. If you’re doing monster amounts of rendering or design work that really need the extra power (or if you have money to burn) go for it. But if you’re a gamer, it’s silly money and just not worth it for extra 5 FPS you’ll get. That’s £160 per frame and money that could be squirrelled away for a new GPU in a couple of years.

Plus you get a picture of a cake when you reach 100 days, which is practically worth it’s weight in gold...

Stay the course, the silicon gods will reward you 🙂

Good see one move into building. What other components you got? CPU, case etc

Even better (for me lol) I've got the same CPU, 850 PSU and strix board. At 99 so hopefully next week or two.

I'll count myself as 99.5 days (99 on order details and 100 on my orders). Good to see people seeing some movement in their orders.

You’re putting me in a tricky position with this one, I’m in a two cake scenario... Cakeception!
