AMD Starts Selling Ryzen 9 3900X and Radeon RX 5700 directly to consumers
AMD on their website started direct sales of processors and graphics cards, much like what NVIDIA is doing with he founder edition graphics cards. So if you yearn that Ryzen 9 3900X and there is no availability in etail, hey check the AMD on stock and you can purchase it there.
Obviously, as far as the graphics cards go, the products are reference models and all are available in North America, Western Europe, Asia-Pacific, greater China and Latin America. The custom cards from AMD's partners such as MSI, ASUS and Sapphire (which are due to appear in mid-August and September) remain exclusively for sale through manufacturers. Currently, AMD offers the AMD Ryzen 3900X Processor and AMD Radeon RX 5700 Series Graphics Cards on their website.

For me it is in stock. But after counting in VAT + shipping, it is more expensive than price in local shops. (which have them out of stock) No Win here either.

I do not really need that much higher ST performance. I more want 50% more threads of 3900X.
And I do not really care much if it clocks all 12 cores mere 200MHz higher than I currently clock all 8 cores either.
I can wait for that chip. I am missing new ASRock's BIOS too. And after next week I am on vacation therefore I do not really "need" that upgrade now.
But AMD is clearly missing sales. I expect that there are thousands of people obsessed with getting one, and if they can't get it soon, their obsession will weaken to point many will not buy it at all.

I would say high demand is a good thing. Nvidia certainly didn't suffer when Pascal was out of stock for weeks after launch. There was also a major mobo shortage upon the release of Summit Ridge, and early adopters like me had to wait up to a month for a mobo to go with my shiny new processor - it was certainly frustrating, but didn't stop me from buying.
