Good morning. I am wearing a watch for the first time in almost 18 months as I slowly emerge from hibernation.
 
I am off later today to see my mom in person for the first time in almost 9 months as her nursing home finally opens up to allow 1 hour visits by family members. So five hours of traveling for about 60 minutes of semi-quality time with the oldest living amphibian in our family…time very well spent. 100%.
 
My hope for you is a great day of drops, laughter, and peace today, with a wonderfully enjoyable weekend to follow.  I will be providing a summary tonight…but it might be slightly later than normal due to travel issues.
 
Best of luck!

Thank you for your compilation.  I am about 1 min 3 seconds out for the RTX 3080Ti FTW Ultra and 12 Min 48 Seconds out for the RTX 3070 Ti FTW Ultra

Thanks for posting. I am glad it is helping. Best of luck on your watch!

Edit: Reading into this, my thought is that EVGA has an order to their supplier for more of all the HC SKUs, but have not received a shipping confirmation from them yet. Once they have a shipping confirmation on these SKUs, Jacob will probably give us a firmer answer on dates to expect the next batch to drop. Based on previous batch timings, I'd estimate it's a 3-5 day window from EVGA's supplier shipment confirmation to when the cards arrive at EVGA's fulfillment center to be shipped out. That's why Jacob's usual answer is a variation of "some time this week" or "probably end of this week" on questions about the faster moving SKUs. Hopefully EVGA gets a shipment confirmation early next week, but I wouldn't expect any movement on HCs in the first half of next week, at the very least. I'd temper hopes for first week of July.

Congratulations and thanks for reporting back!

I had a relatively uneventful on the road to see my daughter's grandmother (no wolves interrupted the journey)...which was nice. It sounds like it was also a mostly uneventful day on the queues...not so nice.  
 
I would be remiss, however, if I did not acknowledge with the passing of this week, that many of us have been in the queues for nine months now (although for the first few weeks of that period (i.e., pre-October 5 retro-active queue announcement) we weren't even aware a queue had formed). Speaking personally, I can hold on for my preferred card for a bit longer yet, but please don't make me wait the full gestation period of an elephant...after all, I am but a meager amphibian and my patience is limited to the incubation period of a swallow (African or European swallow?...I don't know...ahhhhhhhh...!).  
 
We go again on Monday.
 
Have a great weekend!

So now a further update for folks: I signed up for the queue for the new RTX 3070 Ti via EVGA ELITE @ 11:52am on June 10'th 2021, and a friend of mine signed up for the same RTX 3070 Ti queue via EVGA ELITE @ 8am on the same day. We can see in the "View My Notifies" section of the website that we're both in the queue and we still haven't been notified. So yes the "EVGA ELITE Early Access" is a joke / scam / fraud / doesn't work. We're not getting cards @ MSRP via EVGA.

That is not the conclusion I would draw from your experience.  Rather, it sounds like you got into the queues fairly early (which is what the Elite status provides for...getting into the queues up to 24 hours before non-Elites can enter the queues for the newly released skus).  Now that you are in, you are waiting along with everybody else -- Elites and non-Elites alike.  And, we see daily in these threads that folks in the queues are getting invite to purchase emails for the cards.  We all want the queues to move faster...for the cadence and volume of drops to increase materially...but just because that isn't happening, doesn't mean that this process is a joke, scam or fraud.  At least, that is my opinion; clearly your hold a different perspective.
 
Have a great weekend!

I really wish those trolls complaining that it's a scam, fraud, or whatnot would just go away. It's like they think the cards are unlimited. It's a chip shortage, that means that there is not enough supply for demand. Just because you got in late compared to the hundreds before you, does not make it a scam.

I'm getting sick of hearing about this.

Some people don't understand how queues work.

@enewt do you know the email that evga sends the invite to purchase email from? id like to make sure it doesnt hit my spam folder

The email I got was from: ordernotify@evga.com

Thank you both, I appreciate it

Any comments from EVGA about Hybrid FTW 3080ti?

Last I heard was earlier in the week Jacob tweeted "May have some but limited QTY this week."


But it appears like no one, at least no one here got any notifies.

3958 didn't move this week

JWarrior939
I’ve got a 7:43:09 on the 3968. Gonna be a long minute I assume.

I got another 5 minutes :'(
