My Gigabyte AIO Hybid is finally being packaged from newegg. I opted for overnight shipping but probably won't get until Monday. I'll report in on temps and noise. I am quite familiar with AIO GPU's I previously came from 4x Titan X hybrids so I know what to look out for such as pump noise.

Lol. Well, your luck thus far seems to be better than mine. I have not so much as seen any of these cards in stock at any point, and I check as constantly as I can at while at work.

i saw the asus turbo, asus strix, msi gaming and the gigabyte gaming(none waterforce) come in stock only today, and the same time today after 5 minutes they ran out of stock. the Gigabyte waterforce came online today and it was out of stock when i woke up 6:30 this morning to go to work....and now look at them going for 1.300 on ebay

Thanks. This my first non-EVGA GPU in almost a decade. I am quite scared lol. I wish I got 2 but due to circumstances only 1 for the time being. I also wish EVGA would have gotten my business but Gigabyte wins this generation of AIO's unless there's some major manufacturing flaw in the Gigabyte. 
 
Gigabyte Pros:
-High Core Clocks
-Higher memory clocks
-More power phases
-Copper plate cools most of the GPU not just the core
-No GPU fan at all so 1 less noisy fan in my case
-Better outputs such as the VR HDMI ports on the front (won't use anyway)
-Available sooner 
 
Gigabyte Cons:
-Looks (subjective)
-Can't swap out radiator fan unless major cord cutting or taking apart shroud
-Customer service / warranty probably not as good as EVGAs

I'm sure it's a great unit. Don't forget to register it on their website so you get the extra year warranty making it 4 years in total.

EVGA Jacob just said "it's definitely coming this month" on the podcast.

Well, I managed to snag a FTW when they were in stock a just a few minutes ago. Man, it kind of feels like when my graduate advisor screwed me out of my PhD and I had to take a Masters. Despicable git. Anyway, it will depend on the pricing difference whether or not I go for a hybrid and sell the FTW (not at exorbitant prices), or just get the kit once it finally comes out. Either way, I'm on my way to getting a hybrid. It makes me somewhat relieved that I no longer have to keep refreshing the product page on my phone every ten minutes while I'm at work. I'll probably be able to get a lot more done now.

Dammit. I just pulled the trigger on the MSI SeaHawk Hybrid. I feel dirty somehow, but the waiting was killing me. It was in stock, taunting me for the 10 seconds before I had to s**t or get off the pot.
I haven't had anything but an EVGA card in my main gaming towers since the 8800GT. Meh, the mobo and PSU are still EVGA. I'm still a good person, right?? I'll SLI them up with an EVGA bridge later, that should sooth my conscience.
