never heard this before, there are still other backers there didn’t get anything even if there was that info 01/07 SH.
There are lots of us! Backer #1804 here also from the UK. My info from the first spreadsheet also said 1/7 SH and I still have no information about my unit or delivery.
There are tons of UK backers in the same boat. Even UK backers in the high 1,100’s low 1,200… 
Hope the UK batch gets delivered soon. I’m going on holiday in 6 days and will need to make arrangements for delivery if I am away.
Yes, I hope so. I think bubbleball got his replacement 5K+ sent directly from China and reached him in 3 days. (They actually used FedEx to send to him.)
So if they just finish building my 8K and FedEx mine best case I get it next week. But I don’t want to get my hopes up … so I am expecting 1H 2019 (LOL).

Well Matthew told he is gonna find out about that UK delivery issue, so we’ll (you’ll) have to wait for the explanation. 
I’ll just… wait.

Hi Heliosurge I completed the survey and stayed with my initial choice of the 8k I received an email from Dallas Hao on the 23/1 saying they had recived my details and were arranging shipment of my 8k but haven’t heard anything since no tracking number or anything and on the spreadsheet my order is still listed as details not confirmed so now I guess it a waiting game. Do you think my pc will run the 8k easy I have a 6700k@4.8ghz 32mb ram@3200mhz and a 1080ti gpu@1748mhz core/11228mem clock, I can’t wait to upgrade from the oculus.
Thanks

Bad tidings, Dallas was so kind to to let us know that it will be least one month until shipment.
Nothing runs an 8k easy 
, but your setup is good. I’ll let the pros answer this for you though. @Heliosurge

I think you’ll be fine. Hopefully, with the new BrainWarp, you’ll be in very good shape.

Hi Graham,
Your system looks like it has a good match for your 1080ti. The 5k+ & 8k perform similar.
A lot will depend on the programs/games your looking to run & the quality to performance.
I am running a Ryzen 7 2700x 16g ddr4 with a 1080ti.
On my previous setup i5 6500 16g ddr3 with the 1080ti i was able to run even hellblade on low to med settings.
I think you should be good but in truth you will need to try out what you have to see if it meets acceptable quality to performance.
20series does give some nice gains. But I would see how uour setup fairs. Especially with the new Amd cpus & gpus rolling out. With the release of pci-x 4 or 5 over the horizon it might be best to stretch what we have til then.
@spamenigma is currently running only a 1080 on the 5k+
@fresco has been cross testing a 980ti & a 1080ti on the 8k.
At present the 8k may take longer to receive as they mentioned an issue with panels (whether quality or supply issues)
@anon74848233 would need to look into this as some 8k’s have been received this month.

Thanks for your advise I only realy run 3 games at the moment, Iracing, Dirt rally and project cars2 so I will see how they run before I look at any upgrades to my hardware.
Thanks

According to your update, enough 5k+ produced to sent to backers. I am backer 1759. Answered survey more than one month ago. Still do not have my Pimax 5k+ or tracking number. In your file from 7 January I see “sent”. How can it be?
