I'm still in the EVGA queue, hoping to snag either a 3070 or 3080 black, (to give as gift for one of my kiddo's).  But, alas, I know it's a wait....  hoping Jan 4th see's a nice big drop.

Logic says don't hold your breath. I'm expecting a meager drop.

 
Don't be like that...hope springs eternal!

Sorry bro. Nothing Nvidia has done convinces me that they have any desire to get cards into their consumer's hands as quickly as possible. This will be dragged out for as long as possible.

just clicked the notify button...I'm also new to all of this (first PC build) how long before you typically get an email about it being "your turn"? 

somewhere between now and the heat death of the universe - realistically, a few months.

I'd say 4 to 6 months. I signed up for the 3080 FTW3 Ultra on 9/22 and I haven't received a glimpse of a card yet.

9/17 here so good luck

I got on the queue 9/20/20 for a 3080 xc gaming still nothing. I froze in front of my local micro center for a hour with a bunch of other people to find out they only received 4 30 series cards. Is there ANY information on how the queue works? I feel like I've been overlooked.

so each card basically has it's own line. Some cards are being made in greater quantities than others. Also, keep in mind EVGA is using the same supply to do RMAs, Step Up, and they still have obligations to supply retail stores. We probably get what's left over from that. Some queues are very very very slow however.

yeah I stayed away from the 2000 series because their wasn't a real big jump from the 1080ti but right now I wish I did. At least I'd be able to enjoy some ray tracing. Seems like everyone just coming out of the woodwork to get the 3000 series lol

Yeah man I'm with you, I unfortunately only signed up for the 3080 XC3 gaming card too before launch day at noon and I still have not received a notice in over 3 months. At this rate with you being 3 days after me you probably would get your card this time next year ha!

Question - I recently got my 10G-P5-3755-KR (3070) and I loving it but I am still waiting on 3080 Black Gaming "Auto Notify" to come to me, I'm only 23hrs away. Meantime, if I start the "Step-Up" program on the 3070 for 3080 FTW3 Ultra Gaming (10G-P5-3897-KR), assuming the Step-up it will take sometime for my turn to come up, if I get the "auto notify" for the 3080 Black Gaming can I cancel the Step-up? 
 
Happy New Year!

If given the option of....
 
3080 XC3 Ultra
 
OR
 
3080 XC3 Ultra HYBRID.... 
 
Which would you choose? And Why?

Looks like they did get to the black gaming cards, at least. I said on launch day I doubt they'd have good supply until q1 2021 at the earliest and I seem vindicated, but still surprised mine even notified me... and even more surprised I had money for it that day lol

I'd pick the Hybrid if I wasn't planning on custom watercooling. Otherwise, I'd get the regular XC3 Ultra.

I've owned a 980 TI EVGA graphics card since 2016 and was so pleased with it. Thanks for being the best in the business.

Nice that's awesome!

In all seriousness, a couple of months ago my 1080 Ti SC2 GAMING had a fan die and EVGA really stepped up for me with a replacement.  They cross-shipped me a 2080 Super (a better-performing card) in its place.  It was my first RMA experience for a GPU, and the kind of seamless customer service I received is the main reason I'm only looking to EVGA for a 3080 and probably future GPUs.  Hope the queue gets moving despite the new SKUs and everyone gets their notifications more quickly in the new year.

If you're not planning to do your own custom loop, I recommend the hybrid all the way! I had a 1080ti for a long time, and it was an amazing, quiet, and solid-performing monster of a card. It looked great in my case! I set up push-pull high static pressure fans on the radiator. Man, that card was a beast! I hope they release a 3080ti hybrid within the step-up window of whenever it is that I FINALLY (possibly?) snag a card from the queue. 
 
I find the length of this wait absolutely ridiculous, especially considering that EVGA cares more about other retail channels than fulfilling the queues of their most faithful supporters. Not sure why, as direct sales not only cut out the middle-man allowing the whole profit to go to EVGA, but it also takes care of many of the people that have been on here buying EVGA products for over a DECADE (see my sig. It's OLD. They don't seem to have kept all my old posts from before, and I took quite a hiatus from the forums, but I have been here for YEARS.) I legitimately bought an EVGA power supply, just to MATCH my EVGA hybrid 1080ti. They look GREAT together in my PC case. But instead of taking care of their biggest fans, their taking care of the big box stores. I mean I don't necessarily think that's a bad thing, as I love my big box stores, and I love the jobs they create. I'm grateful for them! I'd probably be less salty if it wasn't a 12 hour drive to the nearest Microcenter, as they seem to be getting the most steady stream of 3080's, and they don't do online sales AT ALL in order to just avoid the whole bot mess. (good for them, by the way!)
 
So even being salty and disgruntled, I figure we've been hanging out together here, waiting THIS long, so why not stick with the queue and eventually get the cards, right?? Anyways, thanks for letting me vent! Thanks for venting yourselves. We are almost to the New Year!! I am pretty close to my spot in the queue for a 3060ti. Unfortunately, that's for the kids, not me, lol! Don't even ask how many kids I have .... 
 

I fell in love with hybrids with the 980ti hybrid. I then scored a 1080ti hybrid the night before the 2xxx series. I pretty much stole it at $490 with 800 days of warranty left. It's been an amazing card. I went on the que for a 3080 hybrid on 12/20 so luckily for me I'm so far removed from getting one that I'll be forced to get in the 3080ti hybrid line.

Looks like it all worked out....
