Title: Order on amazon
Post by: dazbog835 on July 03, 2017, 02:23:15 PM
I'm a newbie so be gentle :)

I ordered parts on amazon (had a gift certificate I could use). The GPUs are supposed to be dispatched in 2 weeks. Was just curious if this will actually happen or will they be out of stock by then. I know that there's a short supply these days. Should I look for an alternative way of buying GPUs, and if so, where?

You'll note that all vendors of graphics cards will have expected dates.. but you'll get to the date and it will move to a new expected date

This is because this manufacturers of the gpus are unable to provide a large batch for a few more months so they are sending out small batches here and there when they can

Each vendor is advised of the next mini-batch date but only some of the vendors actually receive a batch


Right now you'll have to just wait it out for an unknown period of time or invest elsewhere I'm afraid

so the answer is I will never get my GPUs? hmmm, wish I wouldn't have ordered the rest of my components...

No, the date is a placeholder and you will get your GPU but they probably don't know when it arrives either, like the guy above said, you'll just have to wait until it arrives.
