I am not necessarily in a huge rush for my card (just wish there was a bit more info on lead times), but the amount of people I know who casually just managed to go on amazon just as they'd done a restock, etc like 2-3 weeks down the line and have their card already feels like a hude middle finger from the GPU gods :D I think it would bother me less if I'd ordered almost any other card than the elusive Eagle, which seem to be more endangered than actual Eagles. Feel like I bet on the wrong horse at the wrong bookie :D

Press 'Alt and F4' together and it comes up with the shipping list.

Yep, and when he comes back after that he should try the caps lock.

We are cursed, this is our purgatory. At least we're suffering together? :p

I agree that it's been a real mess, but this would be quite an escalation (in my view). While we wait to find out, other GPUs will shortly be announced and released. Options are coming.

Agreed, this would be pretty next level bs if it did happen, as if the MSI debacle wasn't bad enough. More options is definitely always a good thing, of course, so at least there's that!

This is the dream. Why don't you wake up and play on your 3080? :p

Yeah, we might not feel so tense in a couple of weeks' time. 3070, more 3080s, various Radeon 6000s...
