There are NONE to be found in the U.S., I know I have looked!
I was ‘lucky’ to order a RTX 2060 and even that is backordered until late February!

I was gonna get the Aorus Master but held out for the Dark Hero because the Gigabyte cold boot CMOS battery issue spooked me. Any issues so far?
Thanks

No issue on F32 BIOS. I would still suggest getting Dark Hero due to fanless chipset.
7700+GTX1080, getting a bit old now but i plan to keep using it until it dies or it can’t run new AAA games anymore, whichever comes first.

Yeah I have the Dark Hero now and it’s great except for this weird issue with internal USB 2.0 hubs. For some reason my Corsair Commander Pro (which has 2 USB 2.0 ports) disconnects and reconnects over and over when you actually use its USB ports so I disconnected my PSU from it. Recent BIOS versions didn’t fix it so I’ll hold off or eventually get a 3.0 to 2.0 adapter or something.
my build was an over the top build… like 6 years ago, but it still handles all i throw at it.

Yeah, one of the Gigabyte BIOS fixes is this.
" 1. Improve connection stability for USB 2.0 ports of USB hub"

Oh nice, yeah I don’t know what it is but modern AMD chipsets aren’t working well with it. At least, the ASUS beta BIOS didn’t do anything for me. I might just sacrifice my USB 3.0 Gen 2 port on the mobo and get an adapter which should fix it so that I don’t have to think about it anymore.

Mehhhhh, SLI was rarely worth the trouble. Either games didn’t support it well, or it caused issues, or the gains were just okay. I remember running SLI 780 TI Classifieds and 980 TIs and I would always have to disable it in the Nvidia control panel to get certain games to not nuke themselves.

No disconnects from my Corsair Lightning Node Pro since the BIOS update. I can confirm its stable.
Just stick to your current board. There will be another BIOS update for Nvidia resize BAR.
