Great insight. Terrifying moustacheNow this is an important video, as pointed out by @Scott DLSS is a major feature of these cards which is how NVidia specifically marketed them when talking about 2x performance.

I'm pretty sure that's just a standard "they've got your order" email. Mine had an estimated build date of today before I added in the 3080 ROG. I'm expecting to increase another week or 2.Looks like, even though i got my order in and approved, that i'll be waiting for it for a few weeks yet...
Edit: Checked my order status...
Ordered: 17-09-2020
Status: Pre-Production
Production Time: 1 working day
I *might* be one of the lucky ones... i'll keep the thread updated on progress
How much was the ROG compared to normal?I'm pretty sure that's just a standard "they've got your order" email. Mine had an estimated build date of today before I added in the 3080 ROG. I'm expecting to increase another week or 2.
£111 moreHow much was the ROG compared to normal?
Yeah, that’s totally normal, you either get the ASUS or source your own if you want a specific card. Same with any SI.£111 more
Edit* I mainly paid the extra because PCS couldn't say which 3080 branded card would be fit inside the system.
I doubt it will be long, they must have been shipped otherwise PCS I'm sure would have stated something more firm about expected arrival date. It's probably just that they're held up at the port or something like that. I'm sure it won't be long for the first batch.The Zotac/Palit is £801 and the ASUS £927 looking at the builder. What's interesting is, if you're looking at upgrading a current system the Zotac/Palit is £817 and the ASUS £946. I looked yesterday and the ASUS was £800 on the upgrade option.
I've just web-chatted and the guy said the initial order is of Zotac cards. No ETA though.
I'm a pretty patient guy but if I don't have my pc before Nov 17th ...You'd hope not. It doesn't actually allow you to order a card on the upgrade option anyway.
Also for some reason the prices were showing differently when i initially looked!
The Gamers Nexus video has a part where they've asked about stocking and most said stock (in the US) is updated every couple of days with a lot expected in Oct, I expect for Black Friday.
..... there NEEDS to be a follow up to this?I'm a pretty patient guy but if I don't have my pc before Nov 17th ...

I may have messed up the date. It's actually the 19th (Alleged Cyberpunk release date!)
Don't you dare!Fixed it.
so that's one 62,000 graphics card or 3 ford focus's, erm, brum brum
