There's plenty of users who still post they cant get one, and plenty have been shown the alerts. I would say most of that is true except the numbers of 3080's seem to be hardest to attain as they either dont ship enough or too many want them so they last seconds.
Regarding the 4k stuff, I dont see why people must turn on RT. Yes its a new feature but the 6800XT and 3080 will play awesome without RT... its only those who insist it must be on that gimp their own fps (unless you can run DLSS).
The 6800XT and 3080 are only just good enough for 4K with everything on, so people should expect to compromise where it makes sense/affects gameplay.
