Wow
 
I feel so betrayed by the green little fella.
 
Waiting over a year for my 3783, how can I see the que progress now?

Sorry to break it to you, but I believe all the queues are officially dead now.
To my understanding, the last queue (3090ti KPE) just died a couple of days ago.
 
It probably won't be until 40 series until we see any more queues.

 
I do appreciate your posting information here Doc! Thank you.
 

A few 30 series disappeared from EVGA's website.  The ones I identified are as follows:

• 3999 (3090 K|NGP|N HC)
• 3989 (3090 FTW3 Ultra HC)
• 3979 (3090 XC3 Ultra HC)

Now there are no water cooled non-Ti 3090s listed on the EVGA store.

RIP to enewt.
His dream of one day getting a 3090 KPE HC is officially gone.

I'm sure he's very upset that he'll have to settle for thousands of dollars for his EVGA bucks instead. he can just buy one on ebay.

imagine if he was just buying cards this whole time with his bucks and scalping them? idk what to think but that would honestly be funny af

That would not be amusing…putting it mildly so that I would not be banned 😂

i never even considered he was just here to grift, but seeing the whole backstory in here yesterday i guess it makes sense

 

I never had any doubt that was what was happening from the beginning. Why else would he put the time and effort in if not for acquiring EVGA bucks? He couldn't possibly ever spend them all on himself, so they had to be going to cards to scalp. Or if not he saved them up and is getting a huge payout now.
 
I was hanging out in the original thread quite a bit at the beginning and I saw first hand how he took over the spreadsheet and pushed Nereus out of updating it by creating his own after the original was trashed.
 
What other reason did you guys think he was doing this for other than to get as many EVGA bucks as possible? No one puts in this amount of time and effort unless they are getting something out of it. He seemed very shady from the beginning to me. He suddenly joined the forums right when the 30 series launched and had no contributions other than to update this thread and the original spreadsheet. It was never anything but a grift and people were more than happy to fill his EVGA buck coffers all day long every day.
 
I really hope the 40 series is more available and we can go back to a normal market so there will no longer be a need for a queue or whatever. Before the 30 series, new series of cards would or course sell out at first, but become available in a few weeks or a month at most. Let's hope we can go back to that. It will help if interest in mining keeps going down.
 
 

4875 (3080 12gb FTW3 Gaming) and 1999 (K|NGP|N HC Kit) have auto notify buttons as of posting this (the latter had it for a while)

Stopped by to see how you warriors are doing. I sure hope you guys have ended up with what you wanted. A bit sad to see no response from mr enewt in quite sometime. Hope he is alright.

 
I am fine, but just read through the thread...ouch.
 
I guess an amphibian cannot take his first vacation in two plus years without some blowback.  
 
The airbnb my brother rented was supposed to have wifi...it didn't.  So, yeah, I was offline for an extended period of time. I also chose not to tell people I was going on vacation -- seemed like a dumb idea to broadcast that I was going to be out of town for an extended time...there are some folks in these forums that know me personnally. 
 
So when I left the country I wasn't expecting to be offline for two full weeks...but that is what happened.
 

gsrcrxsi
he's fine. he just can't monetize this thread anymore so he's gone. that should tell you what you need to know.
 
same reason kram stopped posting in his in-stock spam thread.
 
just remember "tHeY pRoViDe A sErViCe"

 
Kram stopped the moment the change was announced.  I was still providing the summary through to my vacation departure date.

Et tu, zippytek?  
 
In all seriousness, I am sorry I didn't better communicate the vacation. I had anticipated being able to be online in the evenings; that didn't happen.
 
I am proud of the work that was reflected in the daily queue summaries and I hope it helped folks. As I have said numerous times, being part of this community made my wait easier.
 
For those interested, I likely won't be taking another vacation anytime soon (the 12 hour flight back to LAX was a bit like a medical flight (everybody was coughing up a lung...so far we amphibians are yet to show any symptoms)).

enewtDownsides: (1) enewt jr. is now head over heals in love with F1 (not a horrible thing)

Can't see how you can count that as a downside.
Hey, at the very least, they don't run in circles into some ovals, they do actual curves! 
 
Welcome back, hope this side of The Pond has been nicer to you than EVGA's EU queues had been to us!

 
Don't get me wrong, we love F1 over in our pond. But her new found EXTREME love manifested with her taking my mobile phone for both flights...motorsport manager 3 is a great (unlicensed) mobile game for F1 fans....  I guess I am reacting to the fact that she has now done at least five seasons of racing while I am still stuck on my second in that game.  I should have provided more context for the comment.  
 
Best of luck with the EU queues.

Time for F1 22 and a VR headset I guess. :-). (no I haven't tried it yet)

There is a F1 Manager game that I think launches later this month…have my eyes set on that one for her.

enewt...did you go dark for vacation?  

I did.  Just back from Europe.  Ate way too much fried cheese and olive oil, but it was fantastic.  Downsides: (1) enewt jr. is now head over heals in love with F1 (not a horrible thing), (2) her soccer skills have waned -- two weeks without touching a ball (not a good thing), and (3) I appear to have missed the 3090 Ti KPE launch (no comment).  
 
Upsides: spent loads of time with the family, my brother's family and a bunch of museums and ancient artifacts.
 
Just now digging out of all of the DMs I received re the 3090 Ti KPE launch and other stuff. Thanks for the correspondence.

Yikes, again...so a missed card and no 3090 KPE. Oh well, 4090 (or ti) KPE for you then.
 
Welcome back from your vacation.

Interesting timing, but whatever, you're here now. I noted that you had logged in to the forums a couple of times over those 2+ weeks, but just hadn't posted.
 
I've responded to your comment on the other thread. Again, I was very thankful for the help with the spreadsheets (and even relieved), and yes, I see you did start helping late in October, not after a couple of months as I initially thought (although it certainly felt like months), but I was not at all happy with the way I was pushed out, that is really what got me - and all the praise you 'humbly' accepted while never acknowledging that much of that initial data had been entered and compiled by someone else. That's really the crux of it. Just a little thanks is all it would have taken. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

 

Welcome back Enewt!

Even if this guy is back on the forums it doesn't mean it wasn't all for the EVGA bucks. Let's see it continue when the 40 series releases and there is no EVGA buck compensation.

 
If the 3.0 queue system is in effect for the 4000 series, it will be much harder to follow since everything is score and previous purchase (within the 4000 series) based along with only being able to queue up for a max of 2 cards and purchase of 1 will re-align your queue position for the other.

The spreadsheets and tracking really did help give a sense of where you stood in the queues. I ended up queuing up and getting I think 2 cards in the 2.0 queue? (KPE 3090, 3060) and they definitely helped, thanks Nereus (or whoever kickstarted it originally).

I'm forever grateful EVGA implemented a queue though - that was much more than any other etailer did.

Agreed.  EVGA showed up for its consumers and fans with the queue system in a way that no other etailer or AIB partner pursued. It is to their everlasting credit that they saw so many of us successfully through the 30 series tech update cycle. Huge kudos to EVGA_JacobF, his team, the customer service and, especially, the shipping department -- I imagine they had to ramp the hardest and quickest when EVGA pivoted to driving substantially more sales through their e-Store than ever before.
