03/08/22 - LTC1799's have finally been hit by the worldwide chip shortage. As of July 2022 the manufacturers are quoting a lead time of just over 2 years before they have any more available! All major suppliers are out of stock and prices have tripled or quadrupled anywhere else.
We have a small stock for installing our own mods, and we hopefully have some more extremely overpriced units on their way, but unless someone miraculously gets some in at a reasonable price then its probably unlikely that we'll have many, if any LTC1799 based reclocking modules for sale any time soon. If we do then they will inevitably be more expensive, but we'll see what we can do.
