Why isn't the 3080 part of the step up program anymore? Tried to use my 3070 ti to get a 3080, but the only other cards above that are the 3080 ti and the 3090.

The 3080 queue was long and with the rumors of a 3080 refresh (I read Nvidia is increasing ram on some models.) I think they want to get through the list before Nvidia stops sending 10 gb 3080s. That way they won't have to migrate anyone from any queues.

USPS:"We attempted to deliver your package at 11:27 am on November 20, 2021 in BREA, CA 92822 but could not access the delivery location"

Step 2: 11/16/2021
Step 3: 11/17/2021
Step 4: 11/17/2021
Step 5: 11/17/2021
Shipped 3070: 11/17/21
EVGA received 11/22/21
EVGA website says EVGA received 11/23/21 (took 1 day to scan & check)
EVGA website Estimate ship date 11/26/2021... 
Hope they will sent today before the Thanksgiving holiday... PLEASE...
same with me, tracking showed delivered on Monday but the step up shows received on Tuesday. Seems chances of it getting shipped on 24th is very less. I think they should give us the option of getting the card from 3rd party retailers like BestBuy.

No from what I read it's a very slight bump In Bram. From 10 to 12 GB. Not going to see much of a difference now but they hoping it gives the cards receiving the bump a little longer legs in the long run.

I think new 3080 sku with more ram is whats making the queue move faster and step up to 3080 not being available.

Well, I'm screwed. I cannot seem to get my card to take the payment for my step up and this is after not even being able to get to any part of the site for part of this last week to begin with. I'm still having problems with Edge but no browser will work with the payment including thru my phone. The card company says it's not them and I can use it fine otherwise. My only other card is Discover which they do not take. I have emailed them but by the time they get back into the office it will be too late for my step up.
Merry Christmas

Call first thing Monday morning when they open and let them know there is a payment issue. I bet they will take care of you. Good luck

No matter what, the 3080 non TI is one of if not the best value in the 3000 series. I just got my step up done for my son and I would do it again unless there's a new 3080 with more VRAM for the same price. I highly doubt if they replace the non-TI 3080 that it would hold the same price though. So even if it has a little less VRAM, it's still a very solid gpu for years to come for most games especially at 1080p gaming. If you are 1440 or more then it could use a little more VRAM for future games at that resolution but it would still be great gpu no matter what.

Except for step 5, that's almost exactly what I got. Did you get the 3070ti at a Microcenter as well? Also how are you shipping it out? Using the original box it came in or a different one?

September 2nd? Wow, my step 1 was only a couple of weeks after that. Makes me wonder if supply was so bad over the summer that not many were able to register between June and September.

3080 was removed due to stock demands. We do not have a ETA of when it will be available back on Step Up. We do apologize for the inconvenience.

I entered the step up queue on September 28th.. so right before they closed it. Seeing some of the dates here I'm hoping for next week if there is a drop. They have been tearing through these lately.

Updating folks, I also stepped up from a 3070 TI FTW3 to a 3080 FTW3
Step 1 - 08/14/2021
Step 2 - 11/30/2021
Step 3 - 12/01/2021
Step 4 - 12/02/2021
Step 5 - 12/02/2021
Shipped my card FedEx Ground today (should arrive Monday), and had paid for next-day shipping, so it looking forward to it!
Though a part of me hopped that it might get delayed and I'd be offered to purchase one of the rumored cards with more vram.

I must have got in with one of the last 3080 step ups then. Step 1 was 10/11/21. I believe they were at 1/1/21 when I signed up and they have been cruising ever since.
