He will probably answer that they are still in production, even though we keep seeing everything else but that recently.
 
When was the last time we actually saw an actual drop (not just a couple of cards thrown here and there)? 2 weeks? 3 weeks?
 
EDIT: Yup according to him they are still in production. Sooooooooo where are the drops huh? Why do we see a lot of 3090s and more recently released cards then constantly? Isn't is convenient also for the companies that they are also more expensive hmm?


It's a business not a charity.  It isn't "convenient", it's good business.
 
Plus bear in mind not all cards go to the queue.  They have existing obligations to other storefronts as well. Then there is the fact that the demand on them is probably one of the highest, so judging production by how far the queue moves isn't exactly scientific when you have no idea how many people are in said queue.




There is absolutely NEAR ZERO 3080s distributed to stores since the past 2-3 weeks according to the RTXStocks stracker, and that's across Canada and US. So they have to find another excuse for that.
 
But oh my god is it a party when it comes to 3070s and 3090s, truck loads left and right almost daily...

Ironically the only thing standing between me and CP2077 is a wired keyboard.  For real.
 
Given that my move has been delayed and all my goods along with my PC are on a truck somewhere for who knows how long now, I decided to build a new PC to make use to the FE 3090 I got from BB.  Put it all together yesterday then realized that the wireless keyboard I am currently using on my laptop can't get me into BIOS to finish setup of the machine rofl.
 
Ordered a cheap wired Dell keyboard from Amazon which should hopefully be here tomorrow.

The queue system and all that thing is really a great thing but EVGA as much as nVidia has a lot fo explaining to do now after 3 months of waiting for a release day that barely moved 1 day and a really ridiculous out of whack ratio of the cards available across all the models.



There are a LOT of mouths to feed for EVGA -- both contractual (i.e., existing relationships with retailers) and not (us).  I continue to believe that they are doing the best they can under tremendously trying circumstances.  It is in their interest to get us cards as soon as they can...our interests in many respects are entirely aligned.  But, in retrospect, there might have been a better way to structure the queues given the disparity among different categories (Ultra, Gaming, Black...)...but we weren't in the trenches on October 4 (I am guessing at this date)...planning for October 5th...in my mind, they did the best they could with the imperfect information they had at the time. 
 
I remain on the wall, watching for my card, with a song of praise on my lips for the good folks at EVGA.com.

Hha wow i'd be dying!  I just bought a wireless Logtiech G915TKL like 2 weeks ago and thankfully it connects no issue as I threw away like 5 old wired keyboards

Not to mention the fact that none of the AIB partners expected shortages on the RAM and other components (or so I've read somewhere). It's still 2020, so take that how you will lmao.
