Sup peeps! Figured I’d get my recommended allowance of NaCl here to start the day. Hopefully y’all have washed your wall waiting clothes by now as we climb back up tomorrow 😁

My PC finally completely bit the big one. Due to my late signups, for cards that are actually moving, I figured that I would be out of it for up to a year while looking for a single card to buy (any brand.) 
Enter the twitch community... in 15 minutes they raised the funds to buy me a new PC with a 3070. Arriving tuesday. Is it and EVGA card? hahahaha no. Beggars can not be choosers though.
My notifies are still in place and I will report back if/when they pop up. Good luck to you all and may the drops be large and quick.

👍

Tomorrow is another day. However, Mondays are known to be dry days. Not even stragglers. Hopefully this changes! I want to see more 3897 movement.

Welp, I'm officially trying to get a 3080 for myself and a 3060 for my friend, I built her a decent starter computer but had to put an ancient GTX 770 in it.
I have to ship it to her, I'm in West Virginia and she's in California.

I'm seriously starting to lose hope at this point. It's been since what? September since the 3080 launched? I know it's not EVGA's fault, sigh.

I'm just venting, sorry.

I predict that Video Cards are the new sneakers. Syndicates will try to always corner the market  to drive up prices. Prices will stay artificially high.

It is not profitable in long run. Less people buying new GPUs -> Less people buying new games -> Less new games will be developed -> Less people want to play games -> Less GPUs need on the market. There should be balance.
Otherwise gamers will move to consoles and mobile devices.

I agree to that, nV is afraid of pumping up the production ending with another 300K GPUs in the market with no use but again they came round it and the market swallowed them all; making the market that "Hungry" to GPUs isn't good for anyone but them :/

We hear you! No apologies necessary. It's remarkable to me how valuable even budget cards like a 1650 have suddenly become. 

Yesterday I saw Amazon Scalper listings for 3060's at over $1k a pop! I mean WHAT????!?!?!

To be fair pretty dang hard to find new consoles these days too.

The AMD lower 5000 series are starting to turn the corner it seems.  I've seen 5600 and 5800 models available either through AMD direct or Amazon.  The Amazon ones are a bit delayed though but I know the AMD direct ones are shipping out pretty quick.  I bought a 5800X recently off amazon and it a few weeks to ship out, but I got for retail plus tax and free shipping.  The AMD direct my friend bought a 5800X from them and he had to pay for shipping plus tax.  I was trying to hold out for the 5900X, but the 5800X will be fine for what I'm planning.  Would have been nice, but the 5900 and 5950 cpus are still the unicorns right now for amd cpus.  
 
Here's hoping for a good week of drops for everyone waiting on the GPUs.  

Yes my man in his 70s.  Call me if that supermodel shows up.  This will be a great week.  I don't have any reason to say it, but I think so.

I'm looking forward to the HC release, btw what is the direct auto notify link for cards?

Good morning and good luck this week everyone!

I have signed up for a "08G-P5-3663-KR" card about a month ago, before creating an account on the site and cannot see anything under "My Notifications". Is there any way to fix that? I have got the email, so I am not really worried, it would just be better to see it on my account...
 
Another question while I am here, and you guys might be able to answer based on the experiences with the queue and the process... is there a really rough approximate ETA on how much time is it to get notified? 2-3 months, 4-5, 6+? I guess it depends on the card as well, so I am interested only about the "08G-P5-3663-KR". 
 
Cheers!

Email EVGA support and they should be able to help you out.

I'm double tapping that this week will be a good one.  I will not get a notify this week, but it will bring me closer.  For those who do get a notify, my hat is tipped to you.
