I'm trying to locate a new EVGA GTX 980 Ti hydro copper card, but I can't find availability.

I have a reference 980 Ti that is being replaced by EVGA RMA. Once I receive the card, I'd like to use this opportunity to sell the sealed card on Ebay and then purchase and install a new hydro copper 980 Ti. The problem is that I can't find availability. I checked NewEgg, Amazon, EVGA, and Ebay. The only place that has availability and isn't price gouging is B&H Photo; a local family owned chain. The problem is they take forever to ship products, which would irritate the heck out of me.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

Yep... Also if you want to w/cool it and overclock it You could buy a Better aftermarket block, get the Kingpin Edition which will overclock better and sell on ebay the stock kingpin cooler. But first I would suggest waiting for pascal details ajd then release cause probably gtx 9xx prices drop then get all discontinued :D

evga store as usual is back top the old auto notify -- so you got the choice of B&H or that .. just try the evga store and see they may notify you in 24 hrs. or a week+ ??

I see there hybrid is the same as well so it could be down to a production run per orders of the water cards as needed just make them as needed [specialty cards]

I contacted evga on something like that one time ago and was told that they did have 8 in stock so try that and you may get lucky

Thank you guys for all the responses. It's super cool that you guys, some of the biggest contributors on this site, answered. I really appreciate that.

@junkeymonkey In direct response to your suggestion, I just set the auto-notify. It's funny that I didn't think to do this earlier, as I'm a big proponent of this feature on the site, and recommend it to others all the time. There is a time in the past that I desperately wanted the hybrid variant. But I recently obtained the EKWB Predator 360, and I'm eager to add the GPU to the existing water loop.

@Gamer1985 Hmm... perhaps my information about B&H's shipping policy is wrong. I will seriously consider ordering from them. I've just been spoiled by ordering from NewEgg and Amazon; I receive my items in the mail the very next day. Something else that occurred to me is to walk into the store and see if they have any in-stock. I live in New York but had assumed that the Hydro Copper card is too specialized to have inside the store. But I will stop by to see if my assumption was correct or not.

@stavrosmast scan.co.uk is a site that hadn't occurred to me, since they are in the UK and myself in the US. My two concerns is if there was any problem and I had to ship the item back to the UK. Both the cost and the hassle of dealing with customs to do so; I'm not sure if the latter is even a thing or not.

Thats funny you say that, I love Newegg and Amazon theyre my usual go tos but this time around Newegg was the last one to get my shipment out and they also used the Fedex Smartpost shipping which goes through postal mail is the last item of my sons build to arrive, B&H just so happened to be the first to ship and arrive, all parts ordered same day. It was my first time ordering from B&H and it just so happened to be a great experience. Amazon is great too since I have Prime 2 day shipping. Dont be hesitant to try B&H again maybe youll have better luck this time!

like I said , I'd just e-mail evga and see what there real status is on the card .. hard to think its been fully discontinued but then with these 900 cards nothing surprises me and seems southings all ways up with them some how - look how hard NVidia has with getting a solid working driver for them

good luck
