Intel's Coffee Lake CPUs are rumoured to have supply issues at launch

all sides need to stop this of not having a supply to meet the demands on launches. All it does is drive up prices and make what I'll call scaplers richer. We all know that bloke who goes in and buys 10 of the newest gpu at launch knowing there will be some that miss launch and thereby charge them 100-200 more than they paid.

You're blaming the wrong people, it's the idiots who are stupid enough to pay the 100-200 and can't wait for a while
 
The same old news with every new release. There's a 50% chance it's correct, and a 50% chance it's not. I hope not because I've waited long enough. I want to buy one the 5th.

Don't know where the until 2018 comes from; the rumour started with a possible shortage on the 5th and 6th only. I think it's grabbed from thin air to be honest (and certainly hope so because the market and me personally don't need another SKL type launch).

YES! I hoped it would be. I was umming and ahhing about whether it was so bad it was funny or whether it was just bad. Challenge accomplished.
 
The combination of the two really works when your audience is dead tired near the end of the work day, and feeling "giggly". :D
