Hi, any changes regarding the Strix card lately? I am currently at 79 days in pre production.

I have tried to change parts when speaking over the phone regarding stock issues but not having any luck. I am likely to cancel depending on what Nvidia have to say on the 12th.

I do not remember but I am pretty sure I ordered a few hours into release.

60 and 79 days. I am shocked! I could understand if pc components are (too) expensive, but waiting 3 or almost 4 months. Incredible.

The Strix just isn't available and won't be for some time.

Why not change to the normal card? You can do that on your account, no need to phone.
 
I'm on 61 and got told there would be movement in the next few days as my 3080 is in stock. Fingers crossed yours is too!
How can yours be in stock but I have been advised today my order at 63 days is still pending stock deliveries 🤔 @Ghosthud i thought the queues where on a first come first served bases?

Why are you so shocked? How are they supposed to build them if the parts aren't available? Seems pretty straightforward to me o_O
I don't complain about PCs (it's impossible to buy GPU at all), it's more about the whole situation. Even you can't say it's normal to wait 3-4 month for GPU.

That's the point though isn't it, this is anything but "Normal".

It's the most mental situation certainly in my lifetime.
The same here, I am already 31 years old (it's passing too quickly...) and I never had any problem to buy something. Of course, sometimes demand is higher than supply and prices are going up, but the first time I can see where supply is almost dead.

This is my rig, spoke to PCS today and they've confirmed that all parts are in stock so i'm now in the "normal build queue". Upgraded to 3090 to effectively not have to wait for a 3080 and went for a 3950x CPU given the wait time for the 5 gen

(Couple of handy tips whilst you’re still in pre-production... don’t bother with the extra thermal paste as the cooler already comes with high quality paste. It’ll be a messier and less evenly applied job if they have to remove and then add the Arctic. You’d also benefit from upping the motherboard to the Crosshair VIII, I think it’s out of stock at the moment but due back on the 15th)

Thanks dude. What's the main benefits of the Crosshair VIII?

**EDIT: Quick google suggests that it's the extra RAM speed?**
 
Aren't you in a seperate CPU queue as well?
Who knows
😂
Depends if you listen to email support or telephone support. Telephone support this morning told me stock for cpu was good. Had an email this afternoon from a separate support agent saying pending stock on gpu and cpu
🤷‍♂️

The main thing is the VRMs, it’ll help keep a spicy chip like the 3950X under control. I think it’s also got better heat sinks and an extra couple of features, additional USB port and fan header etc.

ROG Strix is still a great motherboard but if you’re pushing the CPU the Crosshair is a worthwhile investment 👍
