The 5900x is the one I'm after too, just looks too damn sexy, it's the kind of thing you drone on at your grandkids when you're senile... "i remember when the 5900x was released and saved humanity from the alien invasion by becoming sentient and building a laser beam out of matchsticks that destroyed all the invading ships".... or something to that effect I imagine.

And I probably still won’t have my 3070 by then 😜

Your 3070 will merge with the 3900x to add to it's powers, you'll be without a card, but you'll be satisfied in the knowledge that your card aided in saving the human race.

As a reward the elders will bestow an RTX Φ Super Dooper (numbers will be insignificant by this point) and you will finally power humans to transition to beams of light and join with the cosmos.

It's a fair trade.

Unless you specify the ASUs strix which is significantly more expensive, you’ll get a pot luck model, could literally be anything, usually Palit or Zotac, but because of the circumstances, PCS have tried to get stocks of any cards going including gigabyte and founder editions.
What if it s palit or zotac ?
Isnt it the same specifications for each card (im not talking about OC or anything here :) )

Yeah, all the cards are the same, just different cooling designs, but the heart of the card is exactly the same across any manufacturer.

It's not until you get to the factory overclocked options that they do custom PCB's and their own boost clocks.

I don't feel confident enough to mess around with overclocking, so whichever 3080 I end up with will do me fine.

Since the 1000 series NVidia GPU boost is so effective, it automatically overclocks the card to where it's possible based on thermals, it's so damn good that there's very little headroom on the chip left to achieve much of a meaningful overclock, or at least that was the case with the 1000 and 2000 series cards, it may be different with the 3000 series, I'm not up to speed with it's overclocking potential, must admit.

Yeah, but will I run Crysis?

Funny you should mention that....

It turns out Crysis is actually a premonition of the war sent to us by Crytek who is the leader of the Alien resistance who had a soft spot for humans. It was entirely filmed on iphone (apple are a big sponsor of the Alien overlords). It was sent to us to prepare us for the upcoming war. Your GPU essentially made Crysis irrelevant.

That's interesting. I ordered on Friday evening and have been given an initial estimate of Monday 19th. They must be expecting a biggish shipment of 3080s in the next week or so.

manufacturers processed bigger shipments every weeks.
so hopefully you re right !
Kinda want to contact the support but they probably still dont know what number to expect so it would be a waste of time both for me and the support.
Wait and see :)

Are either of you guys waiting on a ROG card by chance? I'm not expecting a true update until at least the middle of the month

I pessimistically wouldn't get too excited by that, hopefully I am wrong but I've been getting mails on Mondays and Wednesday saying its going into build 3 days after the email for 2 weeks now. I orderered at 14.06 on launch day. I'm just disregarding the 6.35am email these days as its just automated and not really one to go by in my opinion. 12 days in pre-production now, just going by it will arrive when it arrives now.
