So close I can feel it. 10/15 step ups may be in August!

I feel you, I'm on 10/13 and so ready.

10/10 3:35pm. Was really hoping to get in on this week, but seems to be a very small drop.

Having missed the boat on the tariffs, the non hash limited cards, it's been a silly journey to get to this point.

It seems UPS extended the Thrive promo code, till some magical cut off. Hopefully I can hit step 3, and get it in the mail today.

So was your payment cost different from the price you see on your breakdown? I called support to make sure the price I'm seeing in the breakdown is the price I'll be paying. 
 
So mad I dropped out of the queue, I was in on the first day but had to cancel because I was moving and had to get back in so now I have to wait until we get to 10/24 lmao.

I don't know yet. Till waiting on the invoice.

I'm just going off the info that EVGA would stop honoring the price back in April, regarding the tariffs.

Got to step 4.

Though ti took a beating sinc the intial invoice. Originally, it was estimated at $115 with shipping.

I was NOT granted the pre-tariff price, and i had to pay full taxes on the card, they wanted 267$.

Still cheaper then scalper prices but once shipped, with the net cost, on par with newegg prices of around 1100$ ( if you win the shuffle )

The mothership has landed! Took delivery of my new RTX3080 today. Installing it tomorrow after work. As an aside, I think its kinda funny the packing hoops we had to jump through to our old card back to EVGA, whereas my new card came with little in the way of protective padding (card's fine, just chuckling at the packing/care mismatch).

Edit: SOmehow this got posted twice. Mods, please delete one as I can't find a way of doing it myself.

Can anyone who just recently got an LHR card tell me if their 3080 FTW3 Ultra is able to run New World without any of the issues of their GPU fans showing ridiculous RPM readings? I've seen this card named in the latest article from Igorslab, just do a search for "EVGA GeForce RTX 3080, RTX 3090 and (not only) New World – when design flaws cause graphics cards to run amok | Tests"

I definitely won't be playing that game anytime soon. Anyone with a card knowingly that they could destroy their card playing this questionable game, when cards are hard to come by got to have some issues.

I'd stay far away from this game and wouldn't be willing to check for someone asking on a forum if it runs ok...
