EVGA is also going to be adding SMS verification to the checkout process for all notifications to catch bot orders

 
Good move. Now, silly question. Do we must update our profile and put the country code on the phone? Or will you get it from the "Country" field somehow?
This might seems a stupid question, but I'm sure many haven't set the code (me the first). If the check process goes through reviewing the profile data, I wouldn't like to miss my chance for such a silly detail.

That's a very valid question and I'd like to know that as well. Usually the placeholder in the form field is a clue of the format to be used (e.g: +12 345 678 9000 or 345 678 9000 directly) but from what I can see there is none. I think I'll set mine with country code for the time being and change it back if needed. Better to have more details than too few I guess.

Since we're still working on adding this, I can ask our programming team to check on this.

Ask them to check for duplicated phones. Multiple accounts with the same personal and shipping phone can be suspicious:-D. If someone with many accounts set the same phone to all of them, he can check any checkout process from a single phone. It wouldn't make a big deal improvement the SMS confirmation.
You will have to allow duplicates, but setting a threshold is something to consider.

2.    In order to get cards to gamers sooner, please go to the notify page at and keep only the top two cards selected that you would like to purchase, and remove the others.

• On October 11th, 2021, the system will only lookup and send notifies based on your two oldest entries.
• Going forward, the queue system will only allow for two 30 Series notifies on the current lineup.
• EVGA strongly suggests to keep the FTW3 ULTRA or XC3 ULTRA models due to consistent supply compared to limited supply on K|NGP|N, HYDRO COPPER and HYBRID due to supply constraints.
• EVGA is also going to be adding SMS verification to the checkout process for all notifications to catch bot orders.

If someone decides to keep more than two notifications, what happens to the ones that are older than the first two?

Would like to know before some people get ideas of “keep them all, the timestamps will be saved.”

Thanks, Jacob. Is it safe to assume you'll never be making the FHR versions of the 3070/3080 again, so we should prioritize removing the KL cards?

That's something out of our control, so we can't give you an absolute answer on that.  From where we sit today, you are more likely to get an LHR version (-KL) of those cards (3070/3080), so if you still need a card for gaming or other non-mining uses, then you'll want to keep your LHR notifies.  If you no longer need a card for gaming, general usage, etc., and your hope is to get a card without LHR (-KR), then you can choose to keep -KR cards in your notify list.  However, there's no guarantee that any non-LHR cards will be sold again.

im somewhat confused about these new changes. I hope someone can break them down better and explain, maybe with some random scenarios . 

• From now (10/5) until Friday (10/8):
  • We will continue processing notifications as normal through the rest of the week. 
  • If we sent out notifications for a card you would have been eligible for on Monday and you were excluded due to the new rules, we will include you in the notifications when we have stock again.  No ETA, I don't have a list of cards that went out, and we cannot lookup your queue position to tell you if you would have received a card.
• From now (10/5) until Sunday (10/10, PDT time):
  • Customers must review their notifications and decide which two cards they want to keep notifications to purchase.
  • Remove all but the two card notifies you want to keep.
  • If you leave more notifications than 2, then only your two oldest notifies will be recognized by the system. 
  • As Jacob noted, we strongly recommend to keep your XC3 ULTRA and FTW3 ULTRA notifications.  These will be the card-types that we have the most stock available.  If you want to guarantee yourself the opportunity to get at least one card (as much as can be reasonably expected), stick with one of these two types of models. 
  • Feel free to stay in a HYBRID, HYDRO COPPER, and/or K|NGP|N queue.  However, we cannot guarantee future availability or enough quantity to make sure everyone gets one.
• Starting Monday (10/11 PDT):
  • Our system will no longer recognize your third oldest and newer notifications as part of the notification queue.
  • If you are able to purchase one of your oldest 2 notifications, your third oldest notification does not become your "new" second oldest notification.  The system will simply exclude it from consideration.  This is why it's best to make sure to remove all but two of your notifications; leave no room for error because you misread the timestamp on one.

I realize this change is basically hot off the presses, assume you'll be updating the web site (for those who don't read the forums)?
