I know
@GIGA-Man said that there will be some low numbers of Eagle (in the teens) coming next week, and a larger shipment the weeks after (Still no idea if that's to be shared out over all EU/UK retailers) - either way, it's not going to be enough to get me my card.
But.....the lack stock arriving at all (Nothing since 24th of September, and that was a 'very small' amount), and the fact that details have been super sketchy suggests that in contrary to what GIGA-Man said, there has to be a problem that is keeping from shipping. They are one of the most popular cards - but with one of the lowest confirmed shipments. The power connector has been an issue with early cards - but this is not meant to be slowing down the process....
....so what is? A bit of honesty please. Info about a delay due to issues 'might' lose you (Gigabyte) some sales - but weeks (Sorry, months) of no info and very few cards will (IMO) cause people to grab any card that shows earlier availability - I know the moment I see another 3080, I won't even look at the brand...
