Just got off the phone with a couple of corporate reps at different vendors. It looks like the next batch for most places isnt coming in until the 18th and orders fulfilled on the 19th.

I would love to see him explaining difference between i7 7800X and i7 8700K.

Yeah, frankly I was expecting the 8700K to be another 7800X with less PCI-E Lanes, but the slight boost in IPC and the bigger L3 Cache obviously made a difference.

Well some other users show no differences between them, also DF scores for R7 and i7 7800X are really low AND REALLY HIGH FOR i7 8700K. I haven't seen any other reviewer getting over 52fps in AotS cpu test.
 
If more are supposed to be available roughly around the 18th at some retailers, let's hope it's a reasonable number of units or else we may still be waiting. If my backorder isn't filled by towards the end of the month it's going to be hard not to just buy a 7700k or ryzen and get this build going.

I'll bet it's America First though ugh. This is what happens when a launch is brought forward; no actual stock. There's only 3 Dutch shops taking pre-orders still with no estimated date other than '2017'. Same for the Apex (no price listed). I'm still gutted tbh after waiting for months. Cheapest I can get it is at 389 Euro (455 USD/347 GBP), just unsure if it's worth a pre-order at that price or not.
