Zen 3 Tracking thread (5900x/5950x)

Day 53 and my rig just went into test :D Seems swapping the 3080 for a 6900XT helped considerably with the queue if you're prepared to go all AMD!

5900x/6800xt System, was dispatched about 6 hours ago.

Hopefully there isn’t any weird diversions when coming into Ireland like others have mentioned here.

Estimated to arrive on Thursday but very late, so realistically Friday.

I would swap, for the now off pre order AMD card, too but my main software for work doesn't currently support AMD :(

That said, I think it is the 5900X that is holding me up as I believe the 3060 ti is a little easier to get than the 3080

Mine's on 2nd day of build time (Day 41) with a 5900x and 3090 GPU. Why is build time so much longer than other's - sob sob :cry:

At 27 days I'm wondering if we have all been waiting for this delivery 😂 not to get my how or anything. I assume I have another 20 or so days left but all this has got me excited!! (Something to do during lockdown I guess)
 
I spoke to customer services this morning. All recently delivered 5900x are allocated to builds. Hopefully larger deliveries are expected on 25th and 26th Feb. (Hopefully is doing some heavy lifting there). However, I guess that means that there will be little movement - maybe a few straggler builds? - over the next fortnight and then a burst of activity.

Wonder if it's the mix of 3080 and 5900x, didn't someone say 3060s are a little easier to get? Not sure
