For their releases on September 17th, it seems very likely that the Founders Edition graphics cards will be in “limited edition” versions.
According to journalist Igor Wallossek from igorslab it may well be that Founders cards are a victim of their success and there are not enough stocks to satisfy everyone. He cites several sources citing a problem in the manufacture of GPU heatsinks.
Indeed, the subcontractor in charge of manufacturing this element would have started production during the month of August. In fact there would be “too little” stock at present to meet the demands. Suddenly, production would be just in time for both Nvidia and certain third-party manufacturers.
This only concerns the RTX 3080 since the 3090 by its pricing is not provided in the same kind of quantity. The 3070 would not have the same type of heatsink, eliminating this problem.
