Has anyone actually received a GTX 1080 of any model for their Step up?

New egg has ftw in stock

yes for a moment in time
 

Actually it was over 2 hours

First time poster and very... very long time customer.  I just wanted to chime in and say that today is the day I'm switching to another brand for the 1080 series.  It isn't because I dislike EVGA, rather, its because I'm absolutely sick and tired of the garbage availability of your products.  After SO MANY YEARS in business one would think that the company would have learned by now on how to meet supply with demand. Instead, they'll lose customers to other brands like ASUS with comparable product quality and reputation.
 
Cya.

Just bought the 1060 SC off Newegg a minute ago.  Get if you can!  :)

1080 FTW in stock at EVGA.com!

Managed to get one i think! 
 
Now I wait for shipping confirmation 

From the looks of it they are still working on the 1060 SSC and FTW, but I wouldn't be surprised if those launch soon. As for the 1080, it is a high quality product that they are only making a smaller quantity of, thus they are only getting so many to each partner while the 1070 is getting more made since it is a better value, performance to dollar that is. Now I would love a 1080 classified but I would have to go an hour or more from home to get one, last I saw was 2-3 hours away, so I won't get one anytime soon. I likely will get a 1070 FTW.

I am sorry EVGA I waited as long as I could to try and get a pair of 1080 Classified's; refreshing the product page daily to see if it will be in stock (even teased myself by checking the webstore at Micro Center...pointless) but, decided to jump ship for a couple of Titan X(P)'s. Should be here tomorrow and will be the first non-EVGA card to go in any of my systems since 2005. Thank you for your excellent tech and customer support but, unfortunately the product availability just could not match.

You would have been in for a long wait for the 1080 Classified at this website - EVGA aren't selling it over the website or anywhere else but at Micro Center, and only over-the-counter there, no online orders whatsoever. That is the ONLY option for the 1080 Classified, unless you want to try to get a used one for $1,000+ on ebay lol.
 
EVGA has clearly needed a good production planner for years... lack of supply to meet demand has consistently been one of EVGA's few faults, and unfortunately it's a pretty big one. Many years ago I worked as a production planner, and screwing up just once like this would have cost me my job. I hate to think how much business EVGA has lost over the years because of this one issue. Happens every time, yet somehow nobody learns from it. Go figure.
 
edit: perhaps EVGA are being held back by supply from NVidia, in which case NVidia is the culprit, but EVGA isn't saying anything against NVidia because.. well, you don't bite the hand that feeds you. Then again, other brands have stock available.. so is it that EVGA are so good they get sold out first? If that's the case, NVidia should be supplying more to EVGA since this happens with every new release. Either that, or EVGA aren't ordering enough from NVidia. Either way, someone somewhere is screwing up consistently, and it would be nice if somebody in a position to do so actually tried to rectify this issue.
 
Maybe I should be thanking EVGA for not allowing me to throw my money at them, lol.
 

I'm tempted to get a second hand 970 and give Pascal a miss.

I was able to buy one 08G-P4-6286 FTW from EVGA  website, it was available for 10 minutes only, they sent the email of notification saying it's available and I jumped on the website and I got it.  
email sent 16:02 PST  August 9, 2016.
 
p.s; I've been waiting almost a 3 weeks for this to happen.
 
Best of luck for everyone of you guys 

Microcenter near me as 1080 Classified in stock. I'm so tempted to just get one rather than wait for the Hybrid. I really love the insanely low temps of my 980 Ti hybrid, it never exceeds 55 degrees. But then when modded BIOS files come out we can add more voltage, in which case the Hybrid will shine. Decisions decisions...

Yep was fully aware of this and can not understand why EVGA is doing an exclusive with Micro Center for the 1080 Classified. Making it worse Micro Center not making the product available to purchase online for those of us who are not fortunate enough to have a store in the state. Oh well, in the end I made a crazy purchase but feel it will be an investment for many years to come (or at least till NVidia releases the next big thing )

So I found a local store that is carrying the classified 1080, I'm really tempted but this card is 100 bux more than the FTW.  I can't really find any youtubers reviewing this card, most of them reviewed the FTW edition.  Is there really that much of a difference between the two?
 

Newegg currently has the EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW GAMING ACX 3.0, 08G-P4-6286-KR in stock.

ncixus.com has the FTW in stock 08G-P4-6286-KR
