I would just like to take a moment and say thank you to the people in this thread for not trying to pull some dumb April Fools' joke about EVGA cancelling step-up or something. Well done.

Holy Schnikes! The queue is within 2 hours of me. I'm biting my nails hoping I don't face the price increase. I think I'm actually going to make it.

They literally already confirmed that if you were in before the price increase, you don't have to pay extra.

Not 100% accurate. They confirmed if you were in-queue and your slot came up prior to April 16th, you would pay the pre-hike prices. For the folks in the queue whose step 2-5 didn’t come before April 16th, they pay the hiked price.

Nope. Quoted directly from the product page: "Due to ongoing events, EVGA has made price adjustments on the GeForce RTX 30 Series products. This change was necessary due to several factors and will be effective January 11, 2021. EVGA has worked to reduce and minimize these costs as much as possible. For those who are currently in the EVGA.com Notify Queue system or Step-Up Queue, EVGA will honor the original MSRP pricing through April 16th, 2021 if your purchase position is processed before this date."

How could you have already paid the hike, when it isn't April 16th yet?

I was hopeful that it would make it to me(9/25 @ ~3pm) when they announced the price hike. It didn't help that after the announcement, there was practically no movement for a month.

The price hike is only $70 bucks. $879 vs $809 based on their retail page. The increase is minimal and still an absolute steal compared to what other manufacturers are charging retail for their 3080s. Nobody paying hiked prices should feel cheated in any way imo. Especially when the card has literally doubled in value since the start of Step Up on the second hand market.

Folks are going to be even more pissed when the 3080 ti launches in a month or two and the majority of us have been waiting 6 months for the base model.

Folks are going to get 3080 Ti... but only it 3080 will be discontinued: EVGATech_ChristianJIf somehow the item is discontinued, we would look at what options are available at the time. However, this is highly unlikely to happen and would not be something I would worry about.

When I got in the Step Up Program they only had me paying shipping, now I had to pay an extra 50 bucks. Figured this was because of the price hike.

Signed up on Sept 24th, never felt so close yet so far. I can see Nvidia discontinuing the 3080 for the 3080ti before we even get a chance to buy it and saying that it's because of limited production time at tsmc and they didn't anticipate the demand ......again.

They don't produce these chips at tsmc though. They're made by Samsung.

When you first signup they do some back of the napkin math and then correct everything when you actually pay. Mine shows $20 something now but I know the real cost will be higher because of the difference in card prices.

What do we think are the odds that the program continues sending out cards at the speed they have the last couple months.

Hello all. I was finally able to purchase a 3070 a couple days ago through the newegg shuffle. If the 3080 ti is released within the next couple of months as rumored, would I be able to join that step up queue?

Shipped mine out Friday UPS next day air, EVGA received it today with a confirmation email that they have it. Shows an estimated ship date of 4/8 now. No complaints here so far.
