Aer the hybrids any good?  Are they quiet?  Do people mostly put the RAD in the front of their cases?

My 3090 FTW showed up yesterday. The black lips look so much better than the red. I pulled myself off of all the 3090 queues. May your wait times be short and your overclocks high.

Oh interesting. I've had to RMA my 3090 Ultra. I wonder if the replacement will have black or red accent. I don't mind the red, but I'll be putting a water block on it soon anyway.
 

What was the issue with your card that you had to RMA it? I am going to get the EK waterblock. It is available for preorder now.

Feeling a little better after seeing some of the times people are reporting here, but I'm guessing that ahead of all of the honest users here are the sneakerhead bot discord groups that have thousands of accounts registered in the first 5 or 6 minutes after 9:00 PST.

I usually put them top or bottom, leaving the horizontal airflow alone for normal fans to keep the rest cool.  Unless you have a full coverage waterblock on your motherboard, then it really doesn't matter much.

Alright I'm officially giving up on my 3080 FTW3 Ultra: I took a couple of days off from the website and checked to see where we are now: it barely move 1-2 hours in the past 2 weeks.
 
Even though I signed up on Sept 22nd 6:00am I'm not holding my breath anymore for this card and giving up. See you guys when they release the TI instead, I'll queue faster then instead.
 
To hell with this joke of a mess, it is beyond ridiculous now. To move barely 1 full day in almost 3 months shows how laughable the system is right now, nothing is happening anytime soon.

I'm with you dude. It's like they totally forgot about one of their premium cards to do these niche cards that were queued for weeks after. Seems fair huh?

It could be worse. We are trying to buy a GPU.... At least is isn't something like food that we're spamming the notify button for.... 
Besides, EVGA didn't have to create the que system, they're working hard at trying to make the best of the situation as well....

From whom?

I cannot fault EVGA for their process. It is by far the best process out there IMO. At least you have a chance to get one with EVGA by just being put on the waiting list.
