Do we know if the Superclocked version that comes with the backplate also has the high flow bracket?  Or for that matter, does the standard one come with the HFB?

NO it does not. I purchased two High Flow Brackets and an extra back plate for my Step Up. I read that EVGA is going to have the High Flow Bracket on the Classy's and possibly the FTW's but not the SC's or SC+'s...

I hope their is still a chance that other ppl like me can at least pay to get High Flow Brackets.

Oh you can definitely order the High Flow brackets. They is available right now as an Accessory... http://www.evga.com/products/moreInfo.asp?pn=M022-00-000030&family=Accessories%20-%20Hardware&sw=4

Still on the 300s for my 2 Step-up cards though, but as long as I can get those for my current and New Computer i'll be building i'll be greatful since it gets so hot here. With my New Computer i'll be building soon i'll have a Cooler Master chasis. :)

I really do wished Nvidia would've made  a bout a Million more GPUs then we wouldn't have been in this mess, but I heard ATI is haveing the same problem to, from a computer source.
 
I guess Both ATI and Nvidia never thought there would be this muc demand, but still.

it's been like this for the 200 400 and 500 cards for the first 3-6 weeks .The enthusiast market has grow considerably .

I remember their was never enough 580s til' the 680s arrived lol.

Yep.
 
And these cards really are exceptional. It reminds me a lot of the 200's when they launched. Night and day better all around cards than the last Gen. Not the painful 15% improvements we see most of the time. Not sure exactly how, but the Vram strain was reduced to such a level I am wondering how well the 4G's will sell once they hit the market.
 
@ everyone still trying to buy...
 
We will be playing this cat and mouse game for at least the month of April. Breath, relax, grab some grub and your favorite beverage. You are going to need it 

but i need to build my diablo 3 rig!!!
 
yes diablo 3 needs a 680 gtx ahaha

Received notice my second card (a SC+) has shipped from Amazon; only took 2 days to ship after the "order now and we'll shop when we get more."
 
In hopes of helping others:  On newegg (first card) and Amazon I had very good luck with the firefox add-on check4change; not so much on EVGA's site though since I couldn't figure out what text would change.  On newegg, I used the notify me text overlay of the button.
 
Good luck.

Diablo 3 hardly needs a 680, but that's not stopping me from wanting one for it. 

4G will be mine this i swear i will get one the day of release :)

Well if you try to play in 5760x1080 resolution (full screen windowed mode in Surround), you probably will need at least one gtx 680.
 
I'm trying to play that way now with two gtx 465's in SLI, and it's not enough. With settings maxed, I get like 20-25 FPS (i7-950 @ 3.75ghz, 6gb RAM, patriod pyro SE 120gb SSD, asus sabertooth x58 motherboard). If I turn down the settings to nearly minimum at the same resolution, I can maybe get a steady 40 fps. It still feels really laggy.
 
I'm hoping that a single gtx 680 will make it a lot smoother...
 

I placed an order for future deliver with Amazon today.  This evening I got this part of an email:
 
We now have delivery date(s) for the order you placed on April 11, 2012:
   "EVGA GeForce GTX680 SuperClocked 2048MB GDDR5, DVI, DVI-D, HDMI, DisplayPort, 4-way SLI Ready Graphics Card Graphics Cards 02G-P4-2682-KR"
    Estimated arrival date: April 18, 2012 - April 21, 2012
That is pretty good from my point of view.  So, haunting Amazon along with Newegg and EVGA makes sense.
 
 

Amazon has been pretty quick on getting the GTX680 back in stock. I received mine today after Amazon upgraded my 2 day shipping to overnight for free. Gaming on the GTX 680 has been a blast! Smooth gaming so far

6 left at amazon for those looking
 
 

EVGA 680 GTX on Amazon.co.uk
 
$670.50 though :-(

So, when are the 'normal' restocking times on Newegg? 4-6PM? What time zone?

est US,but i would say its 11:30 -1:00 PM and then 5:00-630PM EST

So what was that, like 5 in stock? I had one in my cart and tried to check out and they were already gone... ridiculous.

Quite a few actually, there is just very high demand.
