I already had an FTW and I got rid of the FTW because there's still no ETA for the kit, could be a month or two, and then having to deal with trying to get one on the first wave, if you're willing to wait THAT long, you'd might as well just wait for the 1080ti or whatever is coming next--not to mention paying more overall.
The wait is getting waaaaaaaay too long for this cards release, I DEEPLY regret not buying gigabyte's waterforce the multiple times I had the chance just because of my loyalty to EVGA, DEEPLY after this error nonsense.
