Well amazon isn't telling us right now either. But none. Again, I prefaced this in an earlier post that they don't owe us anything. I'm purely saying that a lot of the frustration we're feeling would be alleviated if they did.

If they scheduled and told everyone the day and time and I still didn't get one, I would be a lot less upset because I would feel like I had a fair chance.

"Life's not fair"

I understand that, I'm just saying EVGA would have a lot less upset people.

P.S. As a blue collar individual I don't get to work on or around a computer all day. I have a cell phone that MIGHT tell me when there's stock. I still can't get Jacob's tweets to audibly notify me.

As evga has stock available, they post on this thread, twitter, and Facebook, and then send out a notification from the auto notify. Would you like them to knock on your door as well, since they are already sending out way more notices that most companies?



Again, good point. But I must say, usually Forum Moderators are better versed in their spelling and grammar...I've not seen a post from you yet where you haven't misspelled at least one word.

Are you seriously trying to turn this into a grammar lesson. Welcome to autocorrect where I post from my phone 99% of the time :-) . FTW usually changes to FEW. and my phone does what it wants. I catch 95% of the mistakes, but just like every other human, I am not perfect. Good try though ;-).

I wasn't trying to change the conversation into a grammar related discussion, I merely wanted to know why I frequently had to Guess at what you were saying. Now you've explained it to me, so it makes sense. Is that a problem?
 
So, back on topic. As far as I'm concerned, EVGA is no different from any other manufacturers right now. Even Asus (Who strongly emphasized their fully automated manufacturing process with their new STRIX 10's series cards.) is struggling to meet the stock demands of us consumers. So, I would advise that everyone just sits back, and wait a month or two for stock to finally become more readily available.

I say wait for the 1080ti, since it will definitely have a ton of cores when released. The Titan P (phone tried to change P to Poker, and I actually caught it lol) will provide the failed cores that will go toward the 1080ti. Hopefully when Nvidia delays the 1080ti for 6 months after the Titan P, they will have built up plenty of 1080ti core stock.

Was waiting on the Classified until the clocks were released. I'm sure the FTW and Classified will overclock about the same.
I have tried for two weeks to grab a FTW with no Success. So I broke down and purchased a sealed FTW from EBAY. Will receive it Monday. I did make a little money on a 1080 OC strix, so not too bad.
Paid $810 with 2 day shipping.

So after my attempted order debacle on the site last Thursday, I thought I was going to have to wait and hope Newegg's backorders went thru.  But thanks to EVGA's support, we got the problem taken care of!  You guys are awesome.  Thanks for all the help!  It's reasons like this that keep people coming back.  The launches are annoying and hectic but when you have people that seem to care about the company and the product, it really helps.
 
My GTX 1070 FTW is on the way.  I should have it Thursday.  
In hindsight, the Newegg preorder was going to be released just a bit later but I was able to cancel it and just stick with the EVGA purchase. 
 
Thanks again!

You are right about that, and I am a good example. I have experienced this type of customer support from EVGA that at times go above and beyond, and for that I am extremely grateful. I have been a loyal customer of theirs, for both mainboards and GPU's for several years now.
 
They certainly can have problems just like everyone else, but from my experience have the fewest and are the best at resolving any that may come up.
