Looks like just a handful of step ups got to step 2 this week.
 
At this rate its going to be (for example) 42 weeks for me to get my step up.  I will still likely do it.. but.. wow.. how horrible.

Has there been anyone here that confirmed they got into step 2 this week?  I only see a single person in the google doc, and nobody here.  That seems insane.

Now that they can sell via the auto notify queue without crashing their store I’m sure step up will only get a trickle for the next few months.

Hasn't that been up for a couple of weeks now, and there were still a decent number of step ups the last couple of weeks?  Seems odd that like nothing has happened this week.

That was me on the google doc and I posted here that I got into step 2. I am just waiting for my RMA to send the card back. Hope to have that notification by tomorrow. 

I'm a dummy, forgot to convert to EST... my email came in at 10:49 not 9:49 =(
 
Prob gonna be waiting a few weeks at least

When do the 3070 queues go live? My 10/3 step up has no chance of becoming current anytime soon, more focused on the XC3 notify of 9/21 and FTW3 gaming for 9/22...thinking of canceling the current step up and using it for a 3070 since this is a lost cause for anyone after 9/20.

FYI no more 3080 20 GB nor 3070 16 GB VRAM variants coming out.

Honestly, I would think EVGA would want these 2000 series cards back ASAP...IMO.
There's not a lot of EVGA 2000 inventory out there. They could probably move a lot of the B stock pretty quickly.

Thinking of doing the same thing...pending benchmarks. I already had a 2080Ti. I can't say going through all this trouble just to end up with another card that performs on the same level. 

Finally got my card today 10/21. Had to move fans in my Fractal Meshify C to fit red plastic part in. 3mm off the shroud and it would have been fine. Not as heavy as I expected either.

Do you have a rad in the front? I checked fractals website and said clearance would be good.

Grats!
 
Got my card today too.  It is a really nice looking card.
 
Some of the fins on mine looked bent.  Maybe they are supposed to look that way in that area.  Regardless I'm happy and don't really care.  It works and looks nice in my build.

Quick suggestion for the google sheets guru:
A dashboard tab (make default tab) that shows the top 10 most recent step 2s and their respective date/times. Column for each model, 10 rows below each model for 10 most recent step 2 date times.
 
That is the main info people want to see; snapshot of where the queue has caught up to.
 
Big thanks to those that have put in the free work on the crowd sourced tracking tools... I feel bad even suggesting you put in more free work!
