When I decided to build a new gaming computer last fall, I never contemplated that almost nine months later I would still be gaming on my almost four-year old Alienware laptop while my new rig sits gathering dust with its heart still missing…not even on the operating table. Nor did I think I would be spending so much time online commiserating and bonding with a whole community of likeminded gamers and PC enthusiasts…while we await good news from the F5/Scalper/Bot Battles that rage around the retail technology space. But here we sit.
 
It has been a wild ride and while my ultimate goal of securing an EVGA heart for my rig has remained elusive, I look forward almost every morning to the salty, sweet chatter that engulfs this community, whether it is on the EVGA forums or in Reddit. The last three days on the EVGA forums…it’s been a bit different as folks sprinted to hit EVGA Elite status through 100 (mostly) non-substantive posts. (I don’t fault folks for going that path…EVGA made it available to them…and to quote HHH…”So Be It!”) But I am still thankful every day that we are sharing our watch together…it has materially lightened my load and, I hope, I have helped with yours.
 
Hopefully next week will return a bit to the more substantive dialog of gamers helping gamers, enthusiasts talking about cooling solutions and benchmarks, and a general restocking of s’mores ingredients for our communal fire pit while we continue our watch…to be honest, though, I don’t hold out much hope for constructive dialog on Wednesday and Thursday…as a reminder the 3070 Ti queues become available to Elite members at 6 am PT on 6/10 and to non-Elites at 6 am on 6/11.
 
Have a great weekend. Try to get away from thinking about four-digit product numbers, how to pronounce “Ti”, and why totally predictable online traffic surges cannot be better handled by AAA technology companies in 2021 (“It’s a mystery”).
 
We go again on Monday.
 
Have a great weekend!
  
As of 3:00 pm PT Friday, June 4, this is the status of the North American queues (bolded font represents movement from the morning of June 4; italicized parentheticals calculate the length of movement from the prior report):

May your remaining wait be shorter than you anticipate; it is already longer than you deserve.
 
Best of luck!

Even thru a power outage, enewt finds a way to track and update. If only health trade and postal service were just as half effective.

Thanks enewt, I’m constantly amazed by your wit, humor, and most of all R.E.S.T.R.A.I.N.T! to salt the place up.

Wow thanks for the hard work 

Thanks for the kind words. I am probably signing off for the night (yeah, right), so please PM me if I made a mistake or something urgent comes up. I am having a hard time identifying substantive posts through the detritus of Elite-seeking posts....  Have a great weekend all!

So true!  Thanks for what you're doing, enewt!!!

@enewt
do you have any idea for how long it might take for a 3969 3080ti HC to receive an email to purchase if i entered at 7:54? I am looking forward to gaming in 4k hopefully soon!

I try to shy away from predictions....  We really won't get a sense as to the cadence of the 3969 drops until we get the first drop AFTER the launch drop (and any stragglers that following in the next day or so). So, it is really too early to get a sense as to how quickly EVGA will push that sku to us....  Sorry I don't have more or better information.  Best of luck!

Thank you for taking the time to do this every week. It helps out the community a lot.

 
Thanks for the kind words; I do appreciate them. Have a great weekend!

enewt, from your experience, how often does EVGA restock? I know different SKU's have different schedules/priorities but I've just been wondering. 
I'm just curious because I signed up for the 3967-KR yesterday morning

I would say that the higher end air cooled cards got resupplied more often than others before the 3060s launched, generally speaking. Feels like the 3060s have been more common since. Among the Tis, I expect the 3967 to be among the more common SKUs along with the 3070 Ti FTW3. XC3 tends to be on the lighter side…. It is all speculation, especially before the first material non-launch day drop (6/3 and 6/4 are one launch in my mind)…when and how many re that next drop will tell us a lot.

Woah, I didnt know how close I was to getting my 3060 ti. I was in the queue on 01/05/21. Maybe another month? :0

jerrylzy028
Wow 3080 queues are still in September. That’s sad.
Yes its crazy almost 9 months later probably less than 1% of notifications have been fulfilled.

No email yet.

Well when you find out, hopefully I won't be too far behind.

My notification is literally 4 seconds after yours 😝

My only hope was the hydrocopper being too niche for scalpers to bother with. Didn't have Elite because I never registered my first card, 1080 ACX 3.0, and my 2080S Black doesn't qualify. So, here's my timestamp: 
12G-P5-3969-KR6/4/2021 9:01:10 AM PTNo 
Would have preferred the 3080 FTW3 HC instead of the new Ti, but seems to be a dead sku after a single batch drop.

Well it can be that it's niche and it can be they just don't make many of them also since it's niche.

I can't imagine them making an equal amount of HC to the Hybrid or normal FTW3

Question. People that Qued for all of the Tis. Are they allowed to buy all of them? Or does it fall under one per house hold limit. 
 
My guess is that they are allowed to but only one per sku. Im hoping im wrong tho as this will totally lead to scalping... Its just so brutal seeing some folks were somehow able to que for all five models before I was even able to get the dam website to even load properly with out errors....  I personally only qued for the one I wanted. 

Well you que for everything and hope to get something, because at the end,there is only 2 PCB FTW and XC3
From what i can see lately, XC3 is mostly dumped to retail, and FTW filled by EVGA directly
 
SO in other words, if I que for all 5 cards, but only buy one, all other ques are moving.
Thus said, community on EVGA is nice enough not to go ham and scalp, but there are always bad apples =)
 
and to answer your question:
 
From Mr. Freeman
 

Lazaredz
Haven't seen this clarified so .... 
 
If I get the link to the XC3 and buy it, does that drop me off the FTW list?
 
Like is the 1 per household per card or per GPU family?

Its limit 1 per card.

The latter...one unit per sku per account/address.

Didn't you said like 8 hours ago you off for the night =)
I've been hunting your posts for updates on ques!
 
I don't how you do it. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ALL HARD WORK

Karrottop009
So enewt, how are you tracking all these sku's? Are you searching every single thread and post for drops? Or, by using your associate's code, you get notified when that card drops? If manual searching, do you want to make this thread dedicated to people posting their notifies so all in one place?

Obviously not enewt, but from his earlier posts, he is tracking many different threads, forums (evga, Reddit etc), social media, and people pm him their info from time to time.
