Have the same problem here in germany. Called my reseller (alternate) several times for the actual situation. They told me, that they are also waiting for a shippment. Some days they get one or two, other days none. And I had preordered it, too.
It is strange that evga is not able to deliver enough cards. Or is the run for the cards so high atm?
Can't believe there are so man early adopters.

Yes, it is that high.

I m more annoyed that they are giving prio to US customers, then retailers and then eu.evga customers instead of just distributing stuff equaly or based on preorder time. Apart from paying the most for the cards, whats the point ordering directly from here if not going to get them any faster than say caseking preorders which sell at the exact same price too.


Not trying to bust your parade, but EVGA is stationed in the U.S., and the cards are manufactured in Taiwan. If we are to look at this at a logistic stand point... Boats are so much easier to ship when coming from over seas VS using an airplane, cheaper, easier, and less issues occur (even though boats take longer, they're still cheaper and easier). With boats being the choice to ship out from Taiwan, the U.S. is closer, and not only that, they probably have easier methods due to custom and import laws. Mainly, due to it taking less time to ship to U.S., they will send them there first, because all they have to do is go straight to California from boat. IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE.... EVGA headquarters is stationed in Brea, California (in the U.S.)






Yeah except almost all other board partners are also based either in taiwan(say msi, gigabyte) or US(asus) if not mistaken and their cards are a lot more available around the world and also seem less affected by these rumored production issues. So that distance/convenience argument doesn't sound convincing and I doubt demand for evga is that high compared to the rest, I mean apart from little better aftersales support and being less grumpy on warranty voids, it's same stuff...

But as a company, which acts globaly, it should be the target to distribute the hardware even to the different areas, just balanced by the awaited numbers of soled cards. And if they are not able to fullfill every preorder, they should even balance the markets and not leave out any totally.
As I wrote before... Here in germany most resellers get one or two cards per day... Maybe. And not more.

Latest reports from industry insiders suggest that Nvidia’s recently-released Pascal based graphics cards, namely the Geforce GTX 1080 and GTX 1070, are selling excellent. However, the unprecedented demand has apparently caused product shortage, with majority of retail outlets running out of stock. It’s been around a month since Nvidia launched the new GeForce cards, but there are numerous buyers who are still having a hard time getting their hands on the cards.

 


SemiAccurate is hearing of a serious problem affecting Nvidia’s GPU supply. If this turns out to be what SemiAccurate’s sources are describing, it may change the GPU market for the rest of the year.

 
 





true :) In fact, I stopped paying for preorder and bought a asus 1080 strix , arrives today

I'd also like to note that many of my local online stores have many GTX 1080 FE in stock.... With that would you still say that there is a shortage on chips?

Does EVGA have any cards in stock? If "No", then it must be some tactic that EVGA is holding up on, right? Please....
Do yourself a favor and buy from your local online stores, and call it a day. At least it will arrive quicker.

Maybe so, but I don't see any of you trying to dig up or try and find any information to see why and how it would due to a "GPU shortage". All I see are complaints that Nvidia "is doing nothing". Do you really think Nvidia is going to come out and tell the world that they are unable to satisfy the people due to the fact they cannot keep the GPUs in stock? nobody would do that at all. Totally embaressing. You won't hear a word from Nvidia on this one.

Once more, nobody is able to confirm anything at this point. However the current shortage and the supposed blame on TSMC does bring up another question, to me at least, Why has it taken Nvidia this long to provide their own new HB-SLI bridges? They have just recently placed them up for sale, I signed up for a auto-notify which I am still waiting for, but why not sooner, surely they knew that people would want to purchase these with their GTX 1080?

Give a damn about infos and sources ... and anyway: source you pick, info you get.

here ya go, No yield issues on this one. So ? 
 
MSI, Asus and Palit (just 3 example) do not have this severe shortage you are talking about. This a clear choice (and jacob was clear about it) that evga.com and US HAVE PRIORITY. This is not about supply ! Is about choices. We (EU) are second class costumers. PERIOD.

For me the point now is that if you disregard the GPU shortage problems, the distribution seems to be what people are getting cranky over in the end (myself included, I must admit). Seeing people picking up those few 1080 FTW's from retail 2-3 weeks after release while you're just waiting around for your Day One or Two pre-order and not having any information at all on when to expect your card is a pretty crappy situation imo. But a situation EVGA can possibly address by taking control of their stock flows and recognizing priorities.
 
If EVGA's service really is as great as a lot of the people on this forum say, surely they could put in some extra effort to just deal with shipping and customs and make sure pre-orders get filled globally instead of just in the US.
