Really want to upgrade but hell no am i buying a founders edition.
I want the Asus Strix, but There is no price information or even hints at release window yet.

A lot of you have been following release windows for new lines for a long time, would you be able to guess?

June 10th is when the Founders Edition releases. That doesn't mean the custom cooled cards from Asus, EVGA, and the other partners will be available then. For the 1080 it looks like most of the non-reference cards are just starting to be made available so you might expect to see the Asus Strix 1070 a week or two after the reference model on June 10th.

So yes, I think they will be here sometime this month. Whether you will actually be able to buy one this month is another question. The Nvidia Pascal GPUs have been hyped up like crazy for the last 6+ months and there are tons of people who are anxious to buy one. I just did a quick check and I can't find a single GTX 1080 available for sale of any kind except for a few...

I do. The hype has been epic. The rumored power of the weaker of the two(1070) is said to eclipse even the Titan. 20 days after Nvidia's release with nothing from 3rd parties? Add in the fact that Oculus is out with the 970 being lowest on the totem pole and I think that suggests Nvidia won't be rude and hog all sales for the entire month of June.
