Good work, how's it been treating you? This will be my first gaming powered PC for many years and I'm very excited.

Brilliantly, it’s pushing high frames on an ultrawide 1440p monitor. Blagged a Founder’s Edition too!

That's awesome! Good to know it's handling a 1440p ultrawide as I'm about to order one too.

Good shout, you'll get great performance at high settings and it'll be buttery smooth.

Those of you who will be using a standard size 1440p monitor should be running at god-tier levels.

Wouldn't most games come stretched on an ultra wide

No, most modern games have the settings to play at 3440x1440. Some older games don't but there's often patches to fix that, and if there isn't you can adjust the ratio and play at 2560x1440 as if you had a 27 inch monitor, you just get a couple of black bars on either side of your screen image

I have also recently jumped ship (on day 31) from the 3060ti to the 3070 (now on day 32). I just spoke to them to find out if the situation was being held up by case choice for example, mines the 500D SE but alas no its just the GPU. No estimate given, understandably. Back to the waiting game and good luck all

I have just gone into build. literally this second. Looks you guys jumping over made the right move

Even though I've got my browser set to automatically check if I go into build every 5 mins, I still can't help myself but refresh every 20 seconds.

So for all that have switched from 3060ti's to 3070s to try and get your build out, I'm at 10 days and just got this message.

Where do you get this message? Great news mate.

Hopefully my 34 day wait will be coming to an end soon!

I caved in to impatience and asked them on Live Chat if there was anything out of stock in my order, that was the reply I got.

Doesn't look like it @dr_wanqenstein =( think the cards are already assigned out.

Still seems to be a shorter wait than the other cards. There seems to be more deliveries and of higher number for the 3070s.

Ah, pants. Well they seem to be still faster than the Ti so still hoping for building this week.

That said, could still have one assigned to you that hasn't gone into build just yet... positive thoughts haha

Ah I'd use that but at this point the excitement I get from refreshing might be worth it, it'll probs be dispatched today anyways

I just made the switch from the 3060ti (36 working days) to the 3070, hoping I wont have to wait too long now! should I go for 1440p with the 3070 or stick to 1080p?

I think 1440 is what the the 3060ti and 70 are made for no?

Definitely 1440p unless you are playing esports games seriously and need a crazy fast refresh rate 1080p.

In testing already! These guys are not hanging around!

Edit, I was in build for 3 hours and 18 minutes
