Jack-Rabbit Could get a zotac trinity right now.... hmmm decisions
I was able to snag a 3090 XC3 at a 15% price hike, registered it for step-up, and 4 days later got the notify email to purchase the FTW3.... Gonna wait it out in the step-up queue for now.

Anyone getting step two notifications yet this week? It is looking like another week of barely pushing the line down. I am getting so frustrated waiting for this card I’ve literally been waiting eight weeks. There can’t be more people on the step up queue then there is in the notification queue. I’ll just put on my tin hat but I definitely feel like we’re being lied to about the priority of step up.

I ended up finding a Zotac 3090 dropped off the upgrade list and went right back on. So I may end up with 2 eventually... The coil whine on this 2070S really sucks, and I don't want to pay extra shipping, just in time to get the stepup.

You know at first I was all, this bites I’m that I have to wait, ugh and all the associate moans groans and grumbles. But just learning some of the Rendering programs and more don’t utilize the 3090 until just recently... I’m fine waiting. I think day 1 is where most the step-up requests are. So fingers crossed the step-up queue starts moving a little faster.
Got to admit, just grateful EVGA offers 1. Step-up (allowed me to jump from a GeForce 9300 to the 2070 super and eventually a 3090) 2. The auto-notify purchase queue.
Meanwhile those trying to Snatch any Higher end Ryzen CPU or any GPU are up shiz creek without a paddle.

Yep i hear you. Just sitting here with my 2070s xc ultra boxed up ready to go for that 3090 cant wait. But i was very lucky to be in the front of the xc3 ultra 3080 queue. So when i get the 3090 i start a new build and give my current to my kid hopefully by xmas.

Got step 2 and 3 emails today. My step 1 was Sep 29. I'm going to pass on the step-up and wait for the HC to be released. So that's one more card available for someone else.

My wife finally told me to just go ahead and order the new 'doo-dad', as she calls it, for my 73'rd birthday. I did on 11/21. Put in notifies for the 3971, 3973 and 3975. At the rate the lists are moving...., I'll be dead and there will be a waiting list for the 50 or maybe even the 60 series of cards! Where are they all going???? A couple of the cards haven't moved since the list was created!!! I've had a couple of all the EVGA cards, of each series going all the way back to the 8800 GTX's. I've had a pair of the 280s, 480s, 580s, 680s, 295 (remember those? Quad SlI with two cards), 780s, 980s, 1080's, 1080ti's and a number of EVGA motherboards! I finally had to skip the 20 series because of cancer chemotherapy treatments, but now I try to buy the 30 series...., and I don't think I'm going to make it!

I'm unable to edit the Google Sheets. However, all my steps were done on 11/24. I received an email that my package was shipped yesterday - the day my old card arrived at their headquarters.
