I'm betting a bunch of you are on furlough now, so as a student who was working from home anyway I want to give you a word of warning:
you're now going to hate weekends, purely because there's less chance of an update and less cards that become mysteriously available elsewhere. It's a strange, strange feeling waiting for Monday.

Inno have posted again this morning "We have re-designed the heatsink design for iCHILL X4 to max out cooling performance for serious gamers!"
I have asked Inno for clarification on this, because if they have re-designed the heatsink of the RTX3080 it would explain why only the x2 OC has been shipped.

Starting to think i would be better off at the back of an msi queue then in the middle of an asus queue
Would definitely be better than the front of the EVGA queue it seems
then you move back to the msi queue ASUS cards start shipping in VERY LARGE quantities
I haven't really followed the Inno cards, out of curiousity have they been seen elsewhere in the world and just not here, or are they MIA everywhere? Might Inno just never have finalized the design and started production, because, uh, that would be really scummy!
MSI Queues are also in the 1500ish range, so even if they manage to ship 100ish cards every couple of weeks mid-ASUS queues might make it before them... though its sad that that is only a "Might". And I guess that depends on which queue you are in and if ASUS stops their "anything that can manage OC speeds is an OC, screw anyone who ordered non-OC, you get a longer wait and a guaranteed worse card" policy.
I have checked INNO3D official website, nothing mentioned about this modification.
According to the website:
3070 x3 x4 both have 7 heat pipes
3080, 3090 x3 and x4 have 8 heat pipes
Soldato
But are they?
Let's hope so

where do you get that info from please
On the MSI cards? Yesterday Shovinus who is OC's IT guy was helping out on Discord and looked it up for us. 100 arrived Wednesday night and then shipped out in the morning, then another 25 arrived and made the day of people who thought they'd just missed the shipment.
Those numbers tally with Gibbo's statements that a "Large" shipment was due to leave the factory on 23rd Oct and a "Small" one on 31st Oct. Whether the "Very Large" expected this week was just those two combined, or there are even more coming today/delayed to early next week, we don't know (though personally I suspect that was all of them and we won't see more for a couple of weeks, hope I'm wrong though).
how do you know it was released on the 4th in the UK?
I spoke to
I called zotac. I assume you are waiting too?
then you move back to the msi queue ASUS cards start shipping in VERY LARGE quantities
which is exactly why I believe we should be allowed to multi-queue. Queue hopping to cut infront of other people is bad but imo, if we ordered on the 17th of September, we should absolutely get a card before someone who orders today *regardless* of the card ordered.
Y'know, like most competitors are already doing because they actually care about their customers just a tiny bit.

After that MSI shipment I'm so close in the queue I can almost taste it!

I wish, I've been under 40 since launch for TUF non-oc and I'm currently 34th. The movement on it is diabolical. I'll be ordering a 6800XT on launch and see which arrives first.
Calm that optimism, never know with these guys could be months before next shipment lol
Well that's changed according to the recent posts:
"We have a completely new design for the heatsink design of the iCHILL X3. There are 7 heatpipes, increased heatpipe length and increased surface area to provide an ultimate cooling solution for hardcore gamers."
Someone who has actually received a GB Gaming OC? One down, 132 to go.
