alexaquiSo at this point I'm better of registering my non-registered products by creating a new account, getting elite, signing up for the queue, and I'll be ahead of where I was last week.

They may as well just reshuffle time stamps for people. i.e. if you've already bought a 30-series, here's your new time stamp. You were October 7th, 2020 on a 3080? well, now you're October 1st, 2021 because someone signed up the day they took the notifies down.

maybee a reduced weekly summary would suffice...but, there will be a lot less activity from all the "regulars"
I think new users and longtime lurkers who have practically given up on getting a card through the queue could still benefit

The change shows that EVGA has no basis of reality to the fact that many people gaming the queue have many many many email addresses.

For folks that have bought their "back-up" EVGA card in the last 90 days, the step-up queue may have just become your new best friend....

You can't. No more auto-notify.

alexaquiHah.. shows you how much I know as I only have this one account.

So EVGA's own poll had a 64% of people voting to leave the queue 'as is'  - but they decided to change it to quite possibly the worst selection of all.?
   No matter if you are elite , nor longtime member, nor if you got up early to get an early spot in the queue -- anyone who just showed up whenever now gets to step in front of you  ? 
 
This has no bearing on me whatsoever at this point- but that doesn't mean I won't say something about it because it's a terrible decision , not even based on what your own active userbase voted for ..

This was a horrible decision betraying the poll. Why ask us what we want if you are going to do whatever the heck you want anyways? You have lost trust from the majority of the loyal fanbase.

So I'm assuming with the auto-notify buttons being turned off this means the queue itself will be winding down as well.

Update 10/4/2021
 
Hello,
 
In an effort to expedite those in queue who are still waiting for a EVGA GeForce RTX 30 Series Card, and to be fair to all EVGA customers, we are making a running change:
 

1. Accounts that have NOT purchased an EVGA 30 series card yet as part of the queue will be prioritized.
2. Accounts that have already purchased an EVGA 30 series card in the queue system, will be behind those who have not.

 
Note: B-Stock (RX) or Step-Up 30 Series products will not affect queue positions.
 
We hope that this update will allow more gamers to get their hands on an EVGA GeForce RTX 30 series card. If there are any questions please contact our support at .
 
Thanks
EVGA

you've gotta be kidding me. I was like 8 spots from getting the 3070 ti ftw3. Because I purchased a 3060 earlier for my brother's computer, now I gotta wait for people who signed up after me. BS.

Yep, instead of being able to help friends and family get cards through my queue spots, we can lose cards to the people out there with multiple accounts looking to scalp them.  I know EVGA is trying to do the right thing here, but this somehow seems to be flawed.
 
Oh well, cest la vie, maybe enewt can finally get his well-deserved KP HC...  But that will probably go to someone who found out about EVGA in June. 

Or your friends and family could join the queue as well. This makes the most sense for the most people. As someone who has been in several 3080 queues since last fall, I can't believe people have been getting multiple cards before I've gotten one. How exactly is EVGA supposed to determine that you didn't just scalp it? I for one think this move is long past overdue.

As I said before, there's been plenty of chance to read the writing on the wall.  I don't want to get political here, but this is completely typical, we are "fair" to the people who cannot be bothered, and punish the ones that try the hardest.  The fatal flaw in this new system is the scalpers and profiteers obviously have multiple accounts, and you aren't hurting them, in fact, EVGA just cut out a large part of their competition...  Those of us who learned the system and tried our best to defeat the bots, scalpers, and miners the best we could under the rules we were given.  Now that's all changed.
 
To be frank, it was your decision to queue for X number of SKUs last October and not continue to sign up for new SKUs as they appeared.  While I do not mind the idea of EVGA helping people in your category out, I do not like the way it doesn't solve the major issues here.  It's OK I suppose...  Let's throw out years of loyal customers for everybody's Elite and now doesn't even matter the effort you put in on the customer end, unless that effort was to create multiple accounts.
