Might have gone for a 5900X and a 3060TI but that wait could've been even longer and besides I'm only using 1080P so the 3060 should be fine. Even the standard 3060S are currently out of stock according to the configurator. From what they told me seems they're currently completing around 250 builds per day, obviously only an average figure if all components are in stock.

Fingers crossed for you! My build is almost identical to yours apart from a much more budget GPU as I'm not a gamer and I was told that the Fractal Define 7 is out of stock and won't be back in until mid to late May if they're lucky which was a bit disappointing. Hopefully they've got yours tucked away somewhere

Oh the guy i spoke to did say the define 7 was out of stock but suggested it might be back in by the time my build time rolled around. I guess maybe not, may have to look at changing that then.

Slightly off this topic of wait times then, but anyone have case suggestions for alternatives to the define 7. I chose it for best balance between quietness and cooling and water cooled, not sure what to go for now, maybe the be quiet case?

 

[Muin]

If quietness and cooling are what you're looking for, how about the Corsair 5000D?

 

[blindflightsimmer]

Decided to go with the be quiet case since I do have water cooling.
For those with a similar build, I was very surprised but it went into building this morning and testing this afternoon. Changed delivery to Saturday on the off chance it gets out by tomorrow afternoon although doubt it, so probs arrival next week.

Glad to hear it. Enjoy it when it arrives

When this came what brand of 3060 did you get and how’s it been performing?
