Ordered mine on the 25th as well. It first showed the tracking from the 3rd party to TD. Then I asked for the tracking from TD to me. Few days later I get it and it was being sent to me, but right when it arrived in my city they requested to have the package redelivered back to TD. Since then I chatted with them and they gave me another order that hasn't been updated with tracking. They've been saying they will contact me within 24 hours with an update but it's been about 96 hours.
There were some ASUS STRIX and MSI GAMING 4G 970s in stock at Newegg at around 2:30am this morning. They did not last long. Sorry I did not post at the time but I got up out of bed to order and then went back to sleep.
There must've been only one STRIX in stock, as I tried to order two but it limited me to one. I did snag two MSI cards. Now I have to hope there's no whine.
It's ridiculous. Emailed an ASUS rep and he said stock should be "replenished" by mid Oct.
I wish Kyle could contact them and get a firm ETA.
It's gotten the least amount of complaints so far .I'm curious why the specific preference for the Asus Strix?
Personally it's what I'm leaning towards at the moment but that's mainly due to value (+$10 here, versus +$40 or more for the MSI Gaming and +$50 or more for the Gigabyte G1 which also won't fit). Also I haven't tried an Asus yet, so variety is more of a bonus to me than sticking with one brand.

Now, the wait to see... coil whine or no coil whine?
Excellent! Fingers crossed for no coil whine on mine.Mine arrived today, whine-free as far as I can tell. And what a great card.
This is going to sound strange, but when a card requires two pin connectors do you need to use two different lines or can you use one line if it has two plugs on the end of it?It's gotten the least amount of complaints so far .
I chose it because:
- I've never had an ASUS-brand GPU before, and I had set the idea in stone that my next upgrade was going to be from ASUS
- Uses quality parts for a decent price
- STRIX is a sexy looking cooler , but is also a great semi-passive and quiet design
- Only has 1x 8-pin power connector instead of 2x 6-pin
- Overclocking ability doesn't concern me too much
- I've never had to RMA a PC component before
My local Microcenter had an open box GTX 980 Strix for $490....It is basically brand new.
Cha-ching baby. There is a very very tiny coil whine when running benchmarks with the case side open. But in actual gaming I don't hear it at all especially with the side on.
I am assuming the person who returned it was not aware of the Display Port setup. Sort of annoying but I do plan on getting a 4k G-Sync monitor in the near future (black friday please!)
That is more expensive than getting a brand new one from newegg especially after tax.
Oops I misread it as him saying $590 instead of $490.

Managed to order my evga superclocked 970 from newegg yesterday morning. Not sure how often they restock.
One layer of air packets on top of the card. Nothing on the side. Nothing on the bottom.
