    If you're lucky you may even be able to buy one and become 1 of the 12 owners of a card.

    So that's 12 cards to be manufactured in total, then passed around the "PC influencer" circuit before being scrapped.

    Meh!!

    The vast majority of gamers need mainstream GPUs at mainstream prices. When you can barely get a GTX1050TI for under £200,its like announcing a new Ford GT40,in the midst of a shortage Ford Fiestas.

    Miners must be happy with this new card they will bulk buy.

    Given the shortage I am actually surprised at how many SKUs this is!

    Gigabyte always have several models, sometimes more iterations within a given model class than any other manufacturer. Their 2070 super range used to have a crazy number of models just by itself. With that much tiering going on it's why, IMO, you never want to buy a cheap Gigabyte. It'll be the worst chips with the worst VRM and worst/noisiest cooling solution.

    My 980Ti is a Gigabyte and it's absolutely superb, so I may look into these latest offerings once they're freely available on the shelves.
    The deciding factor will be which waterblock to go for.

    Generically speaking you don't want to buy Gigabyte.

    Buy one and get it half a year after. Like my pal and his 3090. Ordered one in September, delivered last week. LOLZ

    One exception: the Waterforce WB versions - I swear by them. Rivaled only by the watercooled Strix and EVGA's Kingpin ones.

    Well, all miners are ready. I think, they are really happy.
