To say "utterly obsessively" does it no justice ;)

Only worrying because the chap in the position after me had his e-mail at 1125am today, and position #13 also seems to have had their e-mail, and I may have let myself get a little excited when it seemed like I was in a good position for this week. :D My own silly fault, really, innit.

Still no e-mail for my position #6 in the Strix OC queue. Resisting the urge to put in a pointless ticket - clearly everything is fine, and it'll be arriving tomorrow... :|
I would definitely contact them!

When the updated positions came out I was 7th and I had my shipping email at 11:23 this morning.

Has the order on your account changed to shipped?

Please I need my card , I'm breaking up into little pieces over here
Well you move up one in the queue buddy. I have just received a 3090 Fe this evening so have cancelled here.
Near 4 month since I ordered the tuf and am 564 cancellations closer to waiting a bit longer. Did not want a 3090 but I have now and that's what happened.
Also cancelling a second pre order with another retailer for a strix oc 3080 that has been a month of nothing also.
Good luck bud and hope you enjoy the tuf that would have looked awesome with my tuf mobo running my tuf monitor.

Thanks for the info, I went overkill with my PSU a while back with a corsair HX1000 and I'm waiting on a 3080, so there's no worries here but it's still good to know these things.

Oh yeah I mean if you can afford it get the best power supply you can, like if I could I'd have just broke the bank on a 1200w lol. But I've gone price conscious this time around on a build and with a Ryzen 7 3700 and such, I can get away with 650w.
