@Jacob Clarification question on this:

• On October 11th, 2021, the system will only lookup and send notifies based on your two oldest entries.

If the two oldest entries happen to be something like 10G-P5-3897-KR (FT3 ULTRA that you guys encourage to keep but it does not seem to even have a product page anymore, yet it is still a notify entry nevertheless), does that mean that you are effectively excluded from the new system starting on October 11?
 
I am sure some people are keeping these is hope to get one of these original SKUs, is there any way EVGA team could let us know or just remove the notifies for products that will 100% no longer be available? No point to keep those notifies and give people false hope, right?

We've previously given people notification that we moved many -KR part numbers over to the LHR version (-KL), and if you wanted to stay in the -KR queue you needed to actively choose to be moved back into the -KR queue.  In this notification, we made it very clear that we do not expect many, if at all, non-LHR cards to be available going forward. 
 
If you didn't get a notification and you are absolutely sure that you did not choose to go back into the -KR queue, then please send an email to sales@evga.com to review.

So what about this card RTX 3080 XC3 ULTRA HYDRO COPPER GAMING, 10G-P5-3889-KR? EVGA reopened the queue for this card and it hasn't hardly moved, not even 1 min from the reopen time. I'm in the process of removing cards and this is currently the 2nd oldest I'm still queued for. Is this card ever going to drop again?

I can't give you 100% certainty that we will never have this again.  However, I would expect that if we make more HC cards that it would be a -KL version.

can't remove notify, webpage is trying to refresh but nothing happens.

I am not looking forward to trying to guess which cards might ever actually ship.

On a related note, since it sounds like "hydro copper 3080 (non kingpin non ti) will never ship" when I read between the lines, can we expect to see the waterblocks sold directly?

No, since the waterblocks will only work on the HC card PCBs.  The HC cards have a different capacitor layout to accommodate the waterblocks.  Installing an HC block on a regular 30 Series card would likely cause physical damage.

I never realized I could request a notification for multiple cards and only ever requested one for a FTW3 GAMING -non Ultra-. Am I just out of luck at this point?

Eh, EVGA doesn't offer a -KL version of this card.

Short answer, Yes.

Thanks for the update and trying to help get the queue down as quickly as possible.
 
Would it be possible that on checkout any 30 series card the user would be removed from any queues for a 30 series that they are a part of? I would feel that would help other people get a card over someone possibly getting two different models before someone is able to get one. I wouldn't mind if someone was able to join the queue again at the bottom of the list after the order is placed for the other model. I don't think most people really would need both in most cases. Or at least have a checkbox that they have to check to remain in the queue for the other option they had as I am sure a lot of people joined multiple queues and only planned to buy one card.

Then this would be my advice.  It's very unlikely you'll see more -KR cards of any type, including HC cards.  If you are willing to give up a notification option for a possibility that we will make a -KL HC card down the road, then we would switch people still in the -KR queue over to that one.  However, I can't guarantee that we will have more HC cards.  And therein lies the rub.
 
The far better option would be to use a notify on an ULTRA card and purchase a third-party block for it.  That would generally give you a much better chance for success. 
 
I hope that can be of some use to you.

Lol all the 'Notify' buttons have been removed from the EVGA Europe website for 30 series GPUs. Business as usual for our part of the world I guess...

Honestly, I feel that would cause more trouble than it's worth.  Most people would still rather keep their second option open for a card, and most of the people would accidentally remove themselves from the queue by accident by clicking the wrong thing or not reading.  That just creates more support requests for us.
