I received an email the end of June, that I was going to be moved to the; 08G-P5-3755-KL, this being the 3070.  After being on the list for the 08G-P5-3755-KR since last December, it is reaching almost a year later and no notification to purchase a 3070 this late ?

Changing to the updated sku did not reduce the sheer quantity of users who had signed up for the GPU.

I suggest looking at the threads that are tracking progress through the queues.

I didn't expect the the reduction, although 10 months later; my queue should have been meet.  I got, another notification for another 3xxx card, earlier; although I had to pass on it.

What would you like eVGA to do? They don't control the fab facility...they don't supply the chips themselves.
 
They can only do with what they're supplied by NVidia.
 
at least you're in queue....

It's depressing, that's for sure. Sheer number of scalpers and different minings hurts bad. Silicon shortage as well. Likely 2023 before things return to "normal".

If you would like to revisit the decision to pass on that card, reply to the invite to purchase for that card (it should have come from ordernotify@evga.com).  In the reply, indicate your desire to purchase the card.  EVGA may do you a solid and get you sorted for a new invite with a new link to buy that card.  Best of luck!

It depends on how many hours ago you got the invite email.  In the past EVGA has made allowances for work, family situations, etc.  This is at the sole discretion of EVGA.
 
However, you did state above that you passed on the invite notification, so unfortunately, I wouldn't get my hopes up.

I’ve seen successful rehabilitations of invite to purchase emails when the delay between the original email and the request to get a new email was months. I wouldn’t lie in the reply, but I wouldn’t go into the details. Simply indicate that you missed the window and have learned that EVGA will make a one time exception to the rule and you are requesting that as you want to buy the card.

Best of luck!

They do however control how much GPUs they send to EU retailers that sell at prescalped prices vs their EU queues ...

It's called legally binding contracts and you don't abrogate those and stay in business.

Re: Purchase wait is Extreme 2021/09/24 23:28:03 (permalink)
But one of the arguments of NVIDIA and partner card makers  is that the problem is unprecedented demand, and that they already made and sold more Ampere cards than any other generation.
This tells me that they already fulfilled those contracts unless the stores made contracts with much higher volume before they knew they will be able to sell them to begin with?
 
But I'm not mad or angry at EVGA for this, since they are the only ones that even sell directly to consumers and not via stores. Even Founders editions aren't really sold in the EU - they are only sold in a few specific countries for whatever reason. It would be similar if you could only get them if you are from California, New York and Texas if you are from US for example. The smaller / poorer states can go and F themselves heh.

It's sad, to be sure. The massive amount of scalpers and varied mining operations causes a lot of pain.

It's as though ever since the emails sent out that non-LHR cards are going to switch to LHR cards, the queue grinded to a halt. After almost a year I still don't have access to the 3070 at the price issued in December of 2020.

The chip and PC parts shortage just continues to drag on because there is no short term solution.
