Got an email from EK saying my Nickle Block + Backplate order should be ready this Friday, and to expect 5d for shipping.  So I am guessing next Friday I'll have it in hand?
 
Anyhow, also got my email from EVGA saying I could purchase a 3090.  So I bought that, it'll be here on Friday.
 
THEN - listed my FTW3 3080 for sale and it sold in about 1hr.
