    Well you might actually - its DPD next day. So assuming test and awaiting dispatch by today. Dispatch tomorrow then you could get it on Saturday. That's how mine played out anyway.

    Nice!!! its a bit of effort but the pay-off is big, makes more sense directing energy in that direction instead of moaning endlessly about it :¬). Enjoy your build mate.

    PCSPECIALIST Zen 3 Tracking thread (5900x/5950x)

    Arrived yesterday! won't win any design awards but I wanted plain, black, good air flow and silent which is exactly what this is. Would say that the build quality was really very good. Very impressed with the cable management as well even though its a closed case. Only thing to note - if you...

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    Yeesh, thats terrible. Asus were supposed to be sorting out their supply issues, looks like that definitely hasn't happened. I had the Rog Strix on my order before I took it out. As I mentioned (page 70) now, there are viable alternatives available to you to get your PC before Christmas. My PC...

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    I think I said it back several pages ago for those despairing about your 3080 orders - you don't necessarily have to wait for PCS to get one in stock. You could sign up to Discord, and register to channels doing stock alerts specifically for 3080 cards. Just make sure you register your details...

    PCSPECIALIST Zen 3 Tracking thread (5900x/5950x)

    Nice! you have had a pretty smooth experience by all accounts in that case. I have been in pre-production for 23 working days, switched over to the 5900x on launch day (2pm) and dropped my graphics card from the build earlier this week. Really hoping I get that notification soon also. Enjoy your...

    Great stuff! what was your build date out of interest? I assume the above refers to the time you switched to the 5900x?

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    They were actually still pretty hard to get hold of to be honest, even with the price hike. Luckily as I got an FE I paid MSRP (still a rip-off though, lets be honest). But my point was more around the 3080, those are coming into stock frequently at multiple retailers, you just need to be...

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    Hi guys, just a suggestion for people sick of waiting. I managed to get hold of a 3090 FE the other day (arriving tomorrow) by keeping up with various stock alerts through Discord. If you keep an eye on it, 3080's and 3090's are going into stock during the week all the time, you just have to be...

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    Appreciate your frustration - I don't think PCS have done a great job in terms of pro-active communication on the issue, irrespective of the level of information they have to offer. However, this genuinely is an unprecedented situation and as i'm sure you're aware the supply issues themselves...

    PCSPECIALIST Zen 3 Tracking thread (5900x/5950x)

    AMD on social media were very bullish around them not having these stock issues at launch. A lot of hubris I think - the problem seems to be so bad that you aren't even really seeing a substantial number of listings on ebay with people scalping the launch stock. These are the times we are living...

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    Who knows. Have seen conflicting things in this thread alone about whether there are graphics card queues or whether its based solely on the build date. You would assume the latter but who knows. Again, not quite sure what I would do with that information if I did know! I think this thread...

    Original order date: 19th October Modified: November 5th 2020 @ 2pm on the dot CPU: 5900X GPU: 3080 Strix Status: Pre-production (15 working days) Given the above, not expecting my order any time soon sadly

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080 vs AMD 6800 XT

    I can't imagine you'll be alone! It's not a bad trade-off, the 6800XT seems to compare favourably in pure performance and price. However, that's only going by AMD's own benchmarks. Regardless, I think the difference between the two will be negligible unless having the best Ray-Tracing...
