Was pleased to get the RTX 3060 XC Gaming - but would like the 3060 Ti for obvious reasons.
 
Just changed my mind and went for the 3070, then changed it back and stuck with the 3060 Ti FTW Ultra
 
Step 1 - May 17, 2021
Step 2 - Doomed.
Step 3 - Changed Mind, resubmitted.
Step 4 - Doomed Ultra FTW
 

Looking at the 3070 step up thread, it's actually moving with steps 1-5 all completed this month for some people.
 

Which you would think means this moves too as these cards are cards that fail in a few cores not working. The 3080 step up is moving too, just not this one.  I would of went with 3070 but the cost difference was north of $200 for the stepup.  It's not worth it for someone who is playing at 1080p. The 3060ti should last for a while for that resolution as long as games don't start needing more than 8gb vram.  If that were to happen the 3080 and 3070 would be feeling the pain too, as they are both 8gb cards.  Meanwhile the 3060 is 12gb but it is much slower than a 3060ti, jumping from a 2060 to the standard 3060 didn't seem like enough of a jump to warrant doing this. 3060ti gives a ton compared to the 2060.

I’ve been waiting since 12/31/20 so I can assure you that you still have months of waiting if ever. I’m extremely dissatisfied with this service so far. If they aren’t going to make this card they should offer something else.

I've been waiting since 12/2/20...so good luck. At this point I'm just hoping to be surprised the step-up actually happens.

so from the looks of it, this 3060ti step up queue really does not move?
 
the 3070, 3080, 3090 queues all had significant movement
 
just asking before i submit a step up to try for this

Ok so I'm never getting my 3060 TI am I? 

Just got a notification from EVGA regarding my step-up, looks like they're changing some of the OG 3060ti Step-Ups to the LHR model.  Hopefully we'll see more movement in the queue!
 
Here's the full message:
 
"Hi Ruffles808,

EVGA has taken these steps to increase availability and speed up the Step-Up process for gamers looking to upgrade their graphics card. If you have any questions about this email, please contact EVGA Customer Service.

P/N: 08G-P5-3667-KL: LIMIT 2 PER HOUSEHOLD.
Does it mean we will get our Step-Ups soon? Or it mean that instead Step-Ups EVGA will sell second card to same households?

thanks for doing this

When was the last time someone got a 3060 Ti through Step-Up? How long has it been?

Not sure that it matters at this point but I have a 12/14 step up. Could have sworn newegg had 3667 cards in the shuffle yesterday =\

Just got a step 2 for my step up. My original step up 1 time was 2:09 pm EST/ 11:09 pm PST on Dec 2, 2020

also got my step 2!   Dec 2  around 2pm.  It's moving ya'll!
 
 
edit: Got step 3 tonight. Looks like my wait is over. Good luck everyone, I hope it continues to move along and ya'll get your GPUs soon.

Got Step 2 Thursday afternoon. Product availability link said it expired when I clicked it after work that day. Got Step 1 12/2 at 4:43pm.

I completed my first step on December 2nd ~12:00PM and I received Step 5 yesterday at 5:45PM.

Folks after me have already reported but I guess I'll update mine as well.

Just put my 2060 KO in the mail this morning, should be at EVGA offices on Friday. Definitely bummed it took this long for this process to go through but I'm certainly happy that it finally has. I ended up getting lucky with the website loading well enough on launch day that I managed to get a 3070ti from the queue; I'm sure my brother will appreciate this upgrade though.

Step 1: Dec 14, 2020 2:20pm PT
Step 2&3 : Aug 18, 2021 9:30 PT
 
Seems like the queue really thinned out or they just had a lot of 3060Ti's set aside to process from the last production batch. Still a little disappointed that the price went up with the change to KL cards but having a decent card to weather the 8 months is great.
