I've been an EVGA fanboy for years (thanks Jayztwocents), but have never been involved in the forums before. I'm also interested in the elite membership so I can hopefullyyyy get a video card. I signed up for the 3080 FTW list way back in October 2020. I'm wondering, has anyone actually received any notifications or video cards from that yet?

A lot of folks have received notifications for that card. But the current queue position is around September 21; that's 4 or 5 days after release of the product.

Just keep posting every day to make the cut. We'll probably still end up in a queue, but it won't be an impossibly long one.

I'd say just make sure your posts are meaningful and you guys should be in the clear. There's no limit on how many posts you can make in a day as far as I'm aware, but I have seen low effort ones get removed, including a message that literally just said "This post is to get me closer to my 100-post Elite status"

As was mine. I've always stuck with EVGA PSUs (and cards) so this PSU did me a solid twice.

Hey EVGA, please add your gaming laptops to Elite qualifications! I bought an SC17 and it doesn't qualify, though cheaper products from the same time period do. Help us out!

How does it work to gain early access? Do you need your elite ID?

Once you're an Elite member, you can go to "My EVGA" at the top, then "Elite Home" from the dropdown. Alternatively, use/bookmark this link: https://www.evga.com/member/elite/. When new/eligible EVGA products are added, you can go to that link and the eligible item(s) will be listed there for you to buy, 24 hours before they're listed on the main page.

yaggaz It still doesn't really mean anything. As long as making 100 posts puts you in the Elite club, thousands of new people will join without ever having bought anything from evga and get on the list. You can be sure that hundreds of them will be scalpers too. Elite should be based off of registered past purchases of Evga in my humble opinion, not how quick you can spam the forums.
^THIS^ All evga is doing is encouraging SPAMMERS and SCALPERS.

As per VEVEAUCENT: VEVEAUCENT Generally speaking EVGA will also do a cursory check for spam / automated posts. So please do you best to make posts that contribute positively to whatever thread you are responding to.
This is why I think that this won’t encourage spammers and scalpers because the automated posts to get to a 100 will not count due to this check.

I've been queued since December and I know thats not as long as other but it still feels like forever. Guess this is just incentive to actually participate in the community if it means I don't have to wait until this coming December to get a card.

I couldn't remember if I signed up for Elite membership. I got the email about the early queue access for Elite Members so I looked at the Elite page while signed in and I have an Elite ID on there + referral link so looks like I must have signed up at some point and forgot I even did it. I agree with others in this thread that posting 100 times on a forum or watching streams isn't all that "Elite" compared to buying and registering many EVGA products (for over a decade, in my case). Sure EVGA earns that dedication, but still any random can just post 100 times and be "Elite"? If that's that bar for "Elite" we need another category like "Super Elite" for the diehards because I've seen dedication to EVGA that goes far beyond that.

Bearmageddon What a curious influx in one-word responses and accounts with join dates of '<x> hours ago' or 'Yesterday'. I'm sure it's just coincidence.
Why did they even add that criteria? Surely they understood people would just spam. Elite members should just be loyal customers. Why complicate it? Finally, they're rewarding loyal customers but they had to include this weird bit.

Highly doubt these will get through the cursory spam check VEVEAUCENT mentioned a couple pages back. Also it makes first timers(hello!) more likely to score a card w/ EVGA, making them more loyal to EVGA rather than MSI, Asus, etc.

It's just dumb. I can't imagine why they needed to add that. I'm pretty sure there are enough Elite members to handle the first batch. Maybe for a later batch could expand the pool.

Agreed, bought my first evga product, 8800gtx, in 2007. Was a member here for almost 10 years before one of the evgatechs got me so irritated with nonsense, I quit. Thankfully, that guy is gone, and I re-joined. Being 'Elite' simply because you can post some drivel 100 times is, in my opinion, a slap in the face of long-time loyal customers.
