Ben from EVGA has said 2nd week in June. I hope it comes sooner also. I pre-ordered the EVGA FTW as well. I understand everyone wants their GPU they paid for. Just have to be patient. June 3rd would be nice

Yea, i'll focus on other hobbies ATM then.
Ok! i think decided to go with one of these. Wanting to stay under the £550 mark and not overclocking. Obviously im tempted to go for the EVGA SC version.... but im trying to resist.
Which one would you guys picks? The general consensus is the KAF2 (more expensive version)
- 1 x Inno3D GeForce GTX 1080 HerculeZ Twin X2 8192MB GDDR5X PCI-Express Graphics Card (N1080-1SDN-P6DN)= £549.95
- 1 x KFA2 GeForce GTX 1080 EX OC 8192MB GDDR5X PCI-Express Graphics Card= £549.95
- 1 x MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Aero 8192MB GDDR5X PCI-Express Graphics Card= £533.99
- 1 x KFA2 GeForce GTX 1080 "Reference Blower" 8192MB GDDR5X PCI-Express Graphics Card (80NSJ6DHK5VK)= £524.99

I'd pick the KFA2 one. Better cooler than FE and those blowers, better customer service and warranty than Inno3D (which are based in Hong-Kong).

Same date as the SC surely....

I am settling for the 17th ish on the FTW. If it comes earlier, sweet but I really doubt it.
I am hoping for 10th on the FTW, or 17th if not 10th, initially wanted it on the 3rd but EVGA said that will not happen.
EVGA said the FTW will be later, but also said they will try to get it on same schedule as the SC so hopefully 10th, but possibly 17th.

10th would be awesome and pretty sure I will be feeling ill that day at work if true. I am a week off on the 17th though.
Hopefully will get the EVGA rep on here again soon and will get some more info.

All these Friday dispatch days are annoying since being delivered to work.

I'd quite like the FTW but there's no waterblock for this yet, right? Am I right in thinking EK aren't likely to build one?

I read on another thread there will infact be one...do some digging around, can't remember where it was.

Middle of the month for the FTW. Good lord no.
I guess I'll have to put the GTX970 sale on hold...

Well I'm in queue position 2 from who I bought it off, so when they get their first batch in I'll be getting one 
1080 FTW that is
1080 FTW that isNone from EK, EVGA rep said they are doing them but have yet to give details. Likely it will be their own waterblock maybe made by a third part like swiftech.

I would be surprised if we see any of the non FE editions for any manufacturer before mid-June myself.
