I just can't figure out this new 3.0 system out. Can someone, that understands it, please make a you tube video, to explain how it works.

Let's see
 
Edit: Cool.

Hey guys how do you make the associates code link that everyone has?

It's in your profile. 

Well that didn't help at all. You mean..... what profile? I look in my public profile see nothing..... Also there are many links in my profile..... There is also a forum profile and god knows what other profiles. And god knows how many links are in THOSE profiles!

So I went to EVGA home page and clicked my EVGA profile and saw nothing resembling a link I could paste... in fact next to "associates code" it's blank.

I tried to here.

Please, please revert to the old system. The new 3.0 system is godawful since you're just rewarding scalpers who've used bots to buy pallets of cards in the past with the opportunity to buy more cards, and spitting in the face of basically everyone else.
 
I understand you just want to reward active forum users/loyal patrons, but in doing so you've shot yourself, and everyone else in the foot. You're better then this. EVGA was supposed to be on our side, not indirectly assist scalpers to buy more cards

I have been waiting since February for a notification to try to get a card. Now I see I have to join a new queue which prioritizes big spenders to even get a chance again. This is pure greed on EVGAs part and only serves to give scalpers a tighter hold on the market. I've had many EVGA cards and they are my favorite. However this clearly shows EVGA does not care about gamer customers, only miners and scalpers.

With the 3.0 que placing anyone who has already purchased a 3 series GPU to the back - how does this help the scalpers?  Seems like this would be a good addition to help those who have not yet purchased a GPU.

scalpers can register tens of thousands of new accounts and register previously purchased GPUs to get scores and they'll be well ahead of majority of gamers who did not spend much time in forums.

New accounts would have low scores, if they bought anything from the 30 series queues they would be at the back of their tier.  They can only buy one from each series meaning one 3090, one 3080, one 3070, one 3060, and one 3050 from queue 3.0 rules.  And once they bought any of the 30 series they would be at the bottom of their tier.  

This would remove bots like Enewt shared on launch day flooding the queue and bogging down the system.  While queue in time would matter as one of the tie breakers in order, bit wouldn't be as critical.  I also agree with Nomoss that we are overestimating scalpers.  Some with really high EVGA scores have earned those scores either by being a long time member of the forum and contributing but I also think they participated in the folding program which I think awarded evga bucks which is also how they got their high scores.  Some of them might of won evga bucks for other things as well.  
 
This system is not going to be perfect for everyone, but atleast now they are taking into account brand loyalty to a certain extent.  I know 3 years might not seem like much, but where do they draw the line?  This is a perspective that not everyone might agree with or maybe thy like it based on where they stand.  EVGA was not going to please everyone so this really is a lose/lose situation for them.  This is what they get for selling direct to customers.  You honestly think you have it rough now, if they ever stop this program then many more will lose imo.  There have been a lot of people who were able to get cards through the queues that might not have been able to without the previous queue system especially at msrp.

I entered the queue I think few days after the launch of the rtx 3000 series for a 3070, two years ago, and I was never able to purchase my card. This is frankly unacceptable. I also accepted to change from non lhr to lhr model, than was moved to Eu queue ( I was in the us queue and don’t know why) and was assured that I will not lose the position.
I don’t think that since then my position was respected but none of the staff of EVGA was able to tell me what’s happening. I own a press magazine and was able to access, for reviews purposes, to a lot of cards from other vendors, but this was just for personal use so I wanted to check how was the buying experience buying directly from the manufacturer shop. And it was a nightmare. @EVGA_JacobF

Can anyone explain to me why under "my notified" still shows "True" under "Active" when I clicked on the "removed notify" button a few days away??
