Keep in mind that this system should make it easier to use a associate code during checkout if you want to save some money off the cards. You no longer have to worry about checkout speed with the notifications since the race to check out first is gone.

Since I entered 9/22 for FTW3 Ultra I am pretty sure I’ll get that card before my Step-Up card.

Yeah I keep checking. This sucks. I swear to Gaben I signed up for notify on the 23rd or 24th. I remember the elite only 3090s, people mentioning getting emails that it was in stock is what helped them. So i went to the 3080s page and notified for xc3 l, ftw3 and ftw3 ultra. All 3 now say I signed up first time Oct 5th, 8:45 PM. Which is wrong. I might have a chance of getting one in a month since I signed up late 2 weeks ago, but it's going to put me at just two days ago, it's probably going to take like 3 months

how is someone signed up for 09/17/2020 12:00:00 getting the invitation email before 23 other user ?

I checked mine and signed up for the 3 non ftw cards on 9/16 at 7:04am it says, I hope this means soon I'll get an email. Has anyone received email with a later date ?

Oddly there hasn't been a lot of reviews for their cards , I only care about thermals and it seems all 5 models use the same cooler correct ?

I planned to step up but this changes things.  Step up or wait for the below notify?
 
lol i Haven’t been this impatient for something for a long time.

You have already entered for a notify on the following date/time: 9/17/2020 9:32:40 AM.

The one thing that kind of is confusing to me is that if the email is sent and they have 8 hours to claim and do not does that send out the email to the next person on the list instantly or does it wait until the next day.
 
For example if the email goes out at 9AM and at 5PM the person doesn't buy the card at 5PM is a new email sent out at 5PM? The biggest problem would be if we get into the point that a card could be not bought and an email goes out at 1AM because the last person didn't buy it. I am hopeful that it would wait and that only one or two groups of emails are sent out a day. While I know people are really wanting to get the cards I feel that sanity would be better if people feel they only have to check the emails once or twice a day to see if they are at the top of the list.

Jacob said they are sent out in batches, so unclaimed cards will re enter the system to be sent in another batch

And I believe he said they are only sending emails out during business hours (presumably CA business hours)

I signed up at 7:04am 9/16 no email yet , so technically I should receive one before you , we should update here hopefully to guesstimate our places in the queue

keep in mind the queues are separate for each sku, so there are 10 total queues that depends on which cards are restocked

How can you tell when you signed up for Auto-Notify? I know i did a while back, just not sure when. I don't think i received a "thanks for signing up for auto-notify" email or anything.

if you fill out the form again, it will now tell you when you first signed up

Or when you resigned up and lost your place.

I am truly sorry if that is the case. Hopefully it is just a site error and you have not actually lost your place.

I signed up literally the day the 3080 came out, within 30 mins of it being released so the 17th at 7 am-ish roughly and got my queued order today at 1 pm for an FTW card.

Sounds right. I was about 20-minutes after you and got my email at 3 PM central time.

Does anyone recall what date the 3090 FTW3 Ultra was made available for auto-notifications, basically the starting date of that particular queue. 9/23 or 9/24?
