I've recently bought and built a Lian Li DK-05F Desk/Case (holds two systems inside it). My current rig is installed at the moment and I'm awaiting my MSI Trio 3080 hopefully next week. My build is likely to be
  • ASUS ROG Crosshair Dark Hero x570 (to be release soon, hopefully around same time as 5900X
  • Ryzen 5900X
  • Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 32gb (4*8Gb) DDR4 3200MHz
  • Sabrent Rocket 1Tb PCI4 NVME
  • MSI Gaming Trio 3080
  • As for cooling, I'm thinking of going hard line water cooling but in the short term might get a Fractal Design Celsuis+ S36 ARGB 360mm AIO

So what is going on with Asus at this stage? I knew I'd be waiting a while for my TUF OC while in 84th place for two weeks now but it's a bit mad there's no sign of anything.

So the Gigabyte chap estimated 200 fulfilled orders for their cards by the end of November somewhere. For a TUF OC, I reckon you should be optimistic about getting one by then.
 
LOL @ me. So pathetic and weak willed.
I bought a new rig just before the pre-order release date of the 30Series cards with the idea that I would get myself a shiny new 3080 and then hammer several weeks of hi-res VR and ray traced games. Then the no-card-mageddon occurred.
After convincing myself I was absolutely fine waiting, that I was completely Zen about it, that it was childish to be so antsy for a new card, I am now getting bored of waiting. I have a shiny new Occulus Rift S VR set and a bunch of games with either VR or Ray Tracing I want to try out. My current legacy GPU from my old rig is just not up for that. Now wondering if I should just get a 2080 Super ROG Strix OC and wait until the end of next year to get the ASUS ROG Strix 3080 OC. Am 150 in the queue for a ASUS ROG but the rate of ASUS supply suggests it will be about 5-6 weeks before I get the card.
My dilemma is that I just know that if I get a 2080 the 3080 will suddenly be available the next day. Argggggh (first world problems)

So desperate for an Asus update like the MSI one :(

considering Asus mentioned they want to test extensively their cards before shipping out i'm not surprised there's a big waiting period..

First few weeks there were small shipments of TUF cards here and there and now silence again, due to testing I imagine.
