So, if you do not get a $599 3070 Ti, or if you did not get an $1199 3080 Ti you are pretty much out of luck at getting one near the Nvidia MSRP. It seems like the game is to release a stock version of the cards at MSRP in very low supply. I guess that is to satisfy some stipulation with Nvidia. That's my guess. But, all the AIBs have OC versions of those same cards at greatly inflated prices. They are literally the same card with small factory overclock in the bios and instead of being $599, they're $899 or $949. Honestly, they make the FTW3 at $799 look like a deal. There is an MSI Ventus 3070 Ti with a factory 1800mhz boost clock listed on Newegg for $929! Over at Best Buy a coming soon ASUS TUF with a 1785 Boost Clock is listed for $949. These are not even premiums, they are just overclocked versions that typically sell at $30-$50 over MSRP. But the MSRP cards will hardly if ever show up. Because why sell a card that cost you literally the exact same amount to produce at MSRP when you boost it 30-45mhz and wa-la, its now selling for over $300 more. 
 
At least with EVGA, at the moment, you are getting FTW3 premium cards and the mark up is lower than other AIBs. It's definitely not a good time to buy a GPU for the consumer, but I do appreciate EVGA at least pushing you to the premium cards for more profit rather that just releasing an XC3 and inflating the price an outrageous amount. 

I got 3080Ti FTW3 Ultra for $817! :)

EDIT: XC3 Emails being sent out.

XC3 or ftw3?

Has anyone from EVGA been on the forums yet to explain what happened with the XC3 AutoNotify button? Has the date been changed for that item?

They had limited supply that sold out quick, and have limited supply coming in on that one. They said they will update when more is available.

It reasonable to assume that they will not prioritize making XC3 cards when all the FTW3s  that they can make will sell out. There is no reason to make a card that is less profitable. Just to set expectations, do not expect to see many XC3 cards available until after the chip shortage subsides and GPU supply and demand even out. In a normal market, when supply is there, the lower priced cards would be available and so competitive forces would make EVGA (and other supplies) to have the stock clocked cards at MSRP. But, when other AIBs are selling their cards with no more than a 30-45 mhz overclock for $300-$350 more than MSRP, when in the normal market those cards would bring only about $50 additional MSRP, it is pretty clear that these AIBs will not be making many stock versions. 

Don't know if this has been posted before, but how quick did the 3080ti queue move on launch day? I'm in for the 3070ti ftw3 at 6:26 and the queue seems to have stopped at 6:12 for today.

will they keep some stock for tomorrow to allow non-elite members to pre order it too ?
Because I actually targeted on this model

Lol, no. You have a static place in line and it's behind the elite's that queued first. It probably wouldn't have been so bad if they didn't water down the Elite status.
