Immediately. There is no grandfathering for this price bump.

Someone else who did step 1 on the same day has gotten theirs, but I haven’t. It’s sooooooo close
10/22 Step 1 from RTX 2060 Super

I don't mind waiting quite a while myself, but I'm curious. At this point, just entering step 1 this past week, am I looking at well beyond 1 year? I don't really mind, I just picked up a 3070 which will serve me very well. Just figured hey why not try it?

I also managed to pick up a 3070 a while ago while I wait for my 3080 to go with my 4k monitor.
 

Step 1 - 10/21/2020
Step 2 - 9/13/2021
Step 3 - 9/13/2021
Step 4 - 9/19/2021
Step 5 - Waiting on RMA number for return
 
Never thought this day would come! Do you all recommend insuring the card through UPS? Just want to make sure it is worth it. 

So the line has moved through about a month of signups over the past 11 months? Is the working theory that there were a lot more people ready to sign up right away, and it'll eventually start moving a bit faster? I'm still glad for the opportunity to step up to a 3080 from the 2060 that I've got, but hoping the pace picks up at some point to be able to get the card upgrade within 1-1.5 years after initially signing up for the process.

That’s usually how it works everyone signs up at first and then it thins out but it’s going to be a long while

Since I'm 3 day UPS ground from EVGA mine will arrive on Friday, 9/24/2021. Just in time for the weekend. From what I have read, tracking information shows up between 6-8pm PST. I got my UPS notification at 7 PST since I have UPS My Choice. The EVGA tracking email came the next morning.
