Thank you for the change. I killed all my notifies except the 3080Ti I want. 
I have 1 notify I have tried to kill many times over the last few months and it just will not go away.
I'm less than 1 minute out on the 3080Ti queue so I  hope I will get a card very soon.

Great update!
 
Now I am conflicted, which two to keep? 
 

• 3969 - 10 minutes away
• 3968 - 11 minutes away
• 3958 - 5 minutes away
• 3797 - 50 minutes away

How has the 3797 been moving along?

As for your 3 3080ti's, I can speak from experience that the heat is SERIOUS. If you can pull off a custom water loop, I'd skip the hybrids. I absolutely loved my 2080S hybrid, but it was a 120mm rad exhausting. I had to rearrange my whole case to have this 240mm rad exhaust, which was really difficult because I have a 420mm rad on my CPU. the 240 needs to exhuast. if you don't, your CPU, memory, and chipset temperatures will suffer. Just keep that in mind for planning.

I know it's hard to believe but there are folks in this world that do things to help others. Before money and greed ran rampant, folks bound together in towns and on farms to combine their skillsets for the greater good. It's the most fundamental trait of human society that has allowed us to evolve up the evolutionary chain.
 
I would even implore you, wholeheartedly, to give it a try. The joy that comes from helping another cannot be understated. 

If you only knew... I help friends all the time when in need, I was able to get a PS5 for a friend the other day. I wouldn't be upset if I wouldn't have been able to get it because I had already got one somewhere else... I would do anything for my friends and family.
 
I'm not sure why you and some other jump to conclusions and assume my whole response was blaming members of scalping/flipping... Use your brain for a minute, and re-read it. I was saying, I thought people were against scalpers. I wasn't saying everyone on EVGA and who have signed up in the queue are scalpers, but I can guarantee the odds are that some have done just that. If you or anyone else already had a chance at a card, and have already purchased one... why should you be more entitled to as many as you "signed" up for just because you "got in line" quicker... some people have to work. Some people didn't use multiple accounts etc. It's the same as when stores limit items to one per customer. Imagine if when best buy has GPU drops and they let the first person in line buy as many as they wanted because they were first in line, and there response was, it's ok guys, I'm buying these for my friends.
 
How else should they do it, how is this not a good thing, why is this a bad thing? You want to help a friend? You could have told them to join the queue or wait in line, or if you prefer to give the card to a friend, hop back in the end of the line bud.

Sorry to offend you friend. The tone of the post was that most people were scalping their one or two cards they were getting (remember ".....sure") That was the issue I was taking exception to.  
 
Most people that contribute to this thread do indeed dislike scalpers and scalping. That's the whole point of putting this much effort into getting cards and then helping their circle along way if their number gets called. I think alot of folks here just kind of registered for a bunch of them not knowing what was going to happen and now they are grabbing placeholder cards and/or helping friends and family as their spots become available. I think it's quite illogical to expect any person to value an unknown person over someone they are familiar with. That's what happens when it comes to their place in line. They don't know what the next three people in line are going to do with their card but they do know that cousin Billy has a 1060 he will use it to replace. At the end of it all, the line should get served from top down otherwise it's not a line.  The other option is completely random like newegg. A lotto if you will. 
 
I think the other point that is clearly being missed here is that just because EVGA's system shows this particular account and address doesn't have a card doesn't make this a fact. It would work as intended for the decent folks here but for many it just a minor speed bump to get around to get more cards. 
 
Anywhoo I'm glad EVGA has listened and recognized the problems this caused. I had faith they would. They have proven over time to be head and shoulders above the rest. I'll say it again - thanks for the queue and the opportunity it provides. 
 
Have a great afternoon guys and gals errrrr and amphibians.

Well, can't say that EVGA doesn't listen to it's customers at least... I suppose I can forgive them making announcements on the forums if at the very least they are also reading and listening to people on the same forums 😁.

So the priority is still up for people that have not gotten a 30-series or are we back to normal? I went ahead and removed one of the cards I wanted as instructed by Jacob.

Back to normal, but no drops today I think.

With EVGA’s decision to not drop to the queue today in advance of this afternoon’s walk back of yesterday’s announcement, it feels like we have stepped into a Tom Clancy subplot (e.g., the Wall Street do over orchestrated by Jack Ryan…in case there are folks in here who haven’t read ‘da Clance), and I am going to walk back the EVGA Queue Summary Table to Monday morning’s timestamps. (For folks looking for today’s announcement from EVGA: here it is.)
 
Update (5:15 pm): Further EVGA guidance on which queues to consider retaining.
 
And now to the t-shirt mock-up announcement that I’ve previously teased…(skip ahead if you’ve heard this story before).
 
Back in late March, as part of a summary table intro, I wrote an open letter to @EVGA_JacobF imploring EVGA to sell a t-shirt memorializing the Queue. At the time, I had some grand design ideas…quoting from the open letter: 

“I would think the graphics for the shirt would include a bunch of various models of EVGA 30 Series cards marching in a line over the body of an unconscious scalper, with “invite to purchase” emails flying overhead, the EVGA shipping crew working their butts off (thank you again!), and a clock counting down from 8 hours.”

As I mentioned on September 17, the one-year anniversary of the 3080 launch, EVGA reached out to me and we have collaborated on the design of just such a shirt. While I understand that the shirt is a mere days away from being available for sale on EVGA.com, there are a few items to note: 

• The design was tweaked to pay homage to the 8-hour stopwatch on “invite to purchase” emails. Since the design was locked, EVGA has extended the time frame to 20 hours.
• As the pandemic has dragged on, I’ve stopped wearing button down and polo shirts to my Zoom calls…showering has also become hit or miss these days, what with the drought and…my laziness…. Why is this relevant? I wanted a shirt that I could wear during my work Zooms…so gone from the design is any immobile scalper body, marching gamers or chalk outline of any kind.
• Oh, and I prefer t-shirts to have art on the back rather than the front…not sure why, maybe it’s because my tummy area is rapidly expanding and art on the front of t-shirts now curves around me like the inverse of a high-end IMAX screen.

Here is the mock-up of the t-shirt.
 

  
After the shirt design was locked, I realized there was one more small thing I wanted to add…but it was too late. (Not that I am suggesting we do another queue for the 40 series, but if I do get another chance at an EVGA t-shirt design, I’ll be ready.) Other than that missed element, I am happy with the understated design of the shirt and hope that y’all will appreciate it too.
 
On the topic of appreciation…I have a great deal to be thankful for over the last year. One year ago, I was two weeks post a F5 battle that left me heartbroken and adrift…my dream of building my new gaming rig…in shambles. At 7:27 pm PT On October 5, 2020, EVGA announced the Queue via an EVGA Forum post (it wouldn’t be until the next day that it was widely reported in the media). Over the next few weeks, as a way of keeping myself sane, I started tracking reports of folks receiving “invite to purchase” emails from EVGA. One random day, I posted my makeshift summary table. Folks liked it…and many (Narrator: too many) months later here we are. 
 
What does this have to do with appreciation? I am confident that I would not still be here without this extended community…y’all have made my hunt for a card…friendlier, saltier and much more enjoyable. In the sharing of the burden of not having our preferred cards, the weight has felt lighter…more manageable…“acceptable”. This communal watch has lifted my spirits (as it has simultaneously weighed down my scale (those s’mores don’t eat themselves)) and I cannot thank you enough.
 
In that spirit of gratitude, I discussed with EVGA an idea about how I might be able to memorialize this year together on our watch…specifically with folks who have had the unenviable task of reading my intros of questionable merit or insight. To be clear, it is not a perfect approach…it doesn’t reach everybody (and sincere apologies in advance for those that get missed)…but within the limited confines of just being one member of our collective community on our wall (and not an EVGA executive capable of rewriting the Queues rules midstream (Narrator: “Too soon, amphibian, too soon.”)), huddled around the campfire, awaiting his turn at the s’mores mallow spear (let’s be honest, I cut ahead of TheRealMikeVan too many times to count)…it will reach folks who will recognize the design element in the center of the t-shirt’s graphic (and shouldn’t catch “randoms” for whom the element is a mystery…). I apologize in advance that it will not reach every member of this community…. Without further written detritus, here was my idea:
 
Once EVGA has the t-shirts on hand, the first 365 EVGA.com orders that utilize my Associate Code (i.e., the method of identifying folks for whom the design of the shirt would make sense), would each receive the t-shirt along with their order…all delivered by the recipient’s friendly, neighborhood UPS driver (may your drivers continue to be swift, accurate and dexterous). EVGA has graciously agreed to bump up that number to a total of 500 orders, as well as to execute some giveaways (exact giveaways still TBD, but I would guess via their Twitch streams and other typical EVGA channels) of another 500 units of the t-shirt to EVGA accounts that have previously made an EVGA.com purchase utilizing an associate code (Thanks EVGA!).
 
Again, I recognize that this is not a perfect approach to getting shirts to all of the community members that have made this difficult experience better…folks who have already received their EVGA gaming goodness and those that won’t be fortunate enough to receive an “invite to purchase” email during the window of limited supply, but my small amphibian-sized newt brain couldn’t come up with a better solution.
 
At the risk of becoming a bigger bore than I already am, thank you all for being part of this community tracking effort. I am confident that – eventually – our patience and persistence will pay off…and we will all enjoy our very own gaming goodness!
 
Very truly yours,
enewt (and enewt jr.)

Very nice job on the t-shirt design.
Can we have a notification queue to purchase the t-shirts?  :)

So will this mean my ques from 2/26 on the 10G-P5-3895-KR & 10G-P5-3597-KL will actually happen anytime soon?????  I hear January folks have already been getting theirs.
