Chip shortage probably. It's affecting a lot of products, not just high end video cards.

re-emphasizing OPs point : the chip shortage is a poor excuse for a non-responsive customer service system.

it's an OK excuse for delayed shipment -- but the customer won't ever understand that as a reason if they don't respond to customer service channels.

Also cars. Production lines are closed down for weeks due shortage.
