So how much longer we gotta wait before more AIBs deliver Fury cards?

When will we see more than one Asus card and one Sapphire card?

For real? How come? Did they sign some sort of exclusivity deal with those two AIBs for just those two models? It seems so weird...

PowerColors should start showing up. Soon. Both of the supply bottlenecks to Fury/X production finally went into volume production a few weeks ago.

UMC Enters Volume Production for TSV Process Used to Enable AMD's High-Performance Radeon R9 Fury X GPU

This was just announced the 20th of July. Then they have to actually mount the GPU's, and memory, test, etc... Then get them to the AIB's, make and test the cards, box, ship, etc... I don't know, a couple of months maybe? More?

All AIBs would have already had their designs and testing them at about the same time, they just needed to wait for volume production from all the factories involved.
Looks like AMD's top 2 suppliers bought everything they could have, so the rest had to wait longer for the ramp up.
UMC is just one cog on the wheel, there are others as well.
