How do i register for stuff? In the store i only see an "auto notify" button.

Hitch_Itch
Can some explain what this is?
How are people figuring out where they are in the que based on this date/time chart, I dont get it
Can someone please explain Without a flame, Sure Im probably just missing the theory here.
 
These are 2 of my ques but how it relates to this chart has me stumped for sure.
Thanks

Most recent drop we are still getting through people who signed up 9/18. Notifications started 9/17. So figure or hope the bulk of notifications were from the first few days and then the queue should thin out from there.

On the right columns of each page on the sheet it shows a “projected” date of when you can expect your card assuming the sheet has everyone that queued, along with the “number in line”. You’re not really missing anything it’s really just that slow with super high demand and super low supply lol

I have NO IDEA what webpage you are talking about, EVGA does not have any "Projected Date", its nowhere on any product page nor my notify list
So you are saying in 2 1/2 months of being on the wait list EVGA has not even gotten through the first 2 days of wait lists? If thats true EVGA should be ashamed of themselves for such a failure to launch, I would expcet that from someone like Zotac but not EVGA

He's talking about this google doc: docs [dot] google [dot] com/spreadsheets/d/1FQupXX51TEgUaP4kIZIxVAMkYNDVzwaRbGikv7bGBgY/edit#gid=1556492105


But also, why should EVGA be ashamed? You're honestly lucky theyre doing a queue at all or even making non FTW3 models. You aren't more entitled than anyone else to get a card, and if you want to be mad at any company, go be mad at nvidia for rushing a launch, not the AIB who is doing the most out of all of them. Do you fault MSI for their factory catching on fire or their 3090s being stolen in China?

EnewT can probably explain this better, but I'll try.  AFAIK, EVGA did not plan the queue system in advance of the NVIDIA 3000 series launch.. rather the quickly reacted to excessive demand and constrained supply issue.. a stop gap.  The notifies come in, and order emails are sent out FIFO.  I assume a planner is reviewing orders for scaplers as well, but unsure. Now lets say 1,000 orders come in but only 600 are posted in this thread.  Even though the number 1 in the list would get the next order email, in the worse case there would be 400 orders in front our #1.  So you can't proactively verify your place on a incomplete list of orders.  So EnewT has been gathering all of the notifications, sorting through all the sku's, sorting the date times, and combined that data with the date/times reported back this this thread when they got the order email.  This relies on people reporting back to be the most accurate, but you can still gauge or get a rough estimate as to how long you are going to have to wait for your email. 
 
A simple analogy, you're in a McDonalds drive-thru queue. You count 10 vehicles in front of you ( our list of notification orders), so you naturally think okay  #10 right? However there a customers in the store ordering (5)  and curbside delivery orders (2)  you didn't count (people they didn't post their date/times). So really you are in position #17 in the worse case. 
Perhaps if EVGA planned this in advance they may have created a more robust system, but I have to say it is better than nothing in terms of transparency.  Keep in that buying behaviors like order volumes across the portfolio of the 3000 series is valuable information not only for EVGA for forecasting and planning purposes, it would also be valuable for its competitors of which there are many.  So EVGA (or any large manufacturing company) have strict policies for communicating information that is restricted or confidential.

I have no idea what that spreadsheet is, its not from EVGA, as far as I am aware EVGA is not using discord to identify people that have signed up for auto notify. I am not anywhere to be found on that list and I have signed up for 9 different GPU's
 According to your list, there should be 1189 people ahead of my 9/29/20 sign up date which would therefor mean EVGA has not sold 1189 GPU's in 2 1/2 months since I have not been notified that my product is now available for purchase. So if your mystery spreadsheet is actually from EVGA somehow than Yes EVGA should be ashamed they listed/released a product with less than 1189 products in stock, AKA a paper launch 
I never said that I am entitled to anything so dont put words in my mouth, All I am saying is it seems as though this que is broken or EVGa does not have Any GPU's manufactured for sale which brings me back to the Paper launch 
 Yes MSI is to blame for fire and theft, its there facility and there warehouse the product was stolen from, Nobody but MSI can be to blame, step up your security or pay the price as there are dishonest people all over the world.
If you left your window down on your car just a little bit and someone stole something from your car, you are to blame, secure your vehicle better next time.

I would also be interested in this.
I have seen a spreadsheet floating around but not sure if thats just where the queues are at , or where to notification email sent out are.

Good Afternoon.


I think the prior posts did a great job of explaining the issues with spreadsheets.  I just want to pop in to reinforce that looking at the ordinal positions in the spreadsheets can be very misleading.  In my opinion, the best use of the spreadsheets requires that you first ignore the position column altogether and only focus on how far along the timeline the sheet's data indicate the queue has progressed. There are no unknown seconds, minutes or hours in the timeline to surprise us...but we have no idea what percentage of total registrants is represented on the spreadsheet...it could be 5%, 50%, etc.  We simply do not know. 
 
I have been keeping track of the progress of the queues after EVGA's activity each weekday -- the link to that table is in my signature block.  My best advice is to check in with that table from time to time and, when your times get close and you are "on the bubble" about possibly being in the next drop or two, take extra care to regularly check your in-box.  Best of luck!

No, I'm not able to. Especially when they're dual fans.
I was planning to get started on my new rig around February. In the meant time, I'll be looking at an AMD CPU.
 
...I'm so looking forward to ditch this 10yo rig I have >.>
It has an EVGA GTX 680 in it. lel

Man, you're in for such a huge enjoyable amount of upgrade if you're going the 5xxx-series AMD CPU & a quality 3000-series NVidia GPU.  I remember when I went from a R9 295x2 to the Titan Xp SLi (only had it briefly) - It was insane to me how huge the jump was.  Imagine going from a 680 to a 30-series will be several times that in terms of performance jump.
Just going from my 1080 Ti to this 3080 was pretty impressive in the titles I tested before the 3080 came in vs after.

Thanks for the explanation, you say I should be able to get an approximate idea as to when I might get an email notification but Im not sure when I  should expect an email.
 These are my 2-3080 sign up dates and time, Do you have any idea how long my wait will be?
Thanks for taking the time

Might be in next Feb, just thinking loudly with you, I am on the 18th of Sep and 12 hours 8 minutes from ordering my card - 10G-P5-3897-KR, we are on the same queue - and the last drop from EVGA moved like 5:55 hours!! that's a nice leap, so give and take it might be Jan for me, Feb for you, put in mind also some folks buy their cards and move from the queue, maybe not too much but it's still a step forward.
