Is there a 3080ti step up queue thread? I couldn't find one.
 
How long is the current step up taking?

I do apologize but unfortunately we cannot provide any information regarding status, positioning or waiting time in the queue.  

We can make this the unofficial 3080 ti thread.

Now just waiting for the RMA # so I can send back the original card. 

Step up is fast probably because 3080ti is poor value. I wanted a 3080 but that 1 year search went nowhere.

Yep, it's either a really cheap 3090 or an overpriced 3080. Mostly overpriced. I was in that same one year boat and my current 1080 was starting to act funny, and I was lucky enough from Newegg to snag a 3060ti.

I have a 3090 and my wife has the 3080Ti.  The Ti is within a couple of FPS of the 3090, at 4K Ultra settings.  Honestly, the 3080Ti is a bargain for people who game at 4K.  And yes, I know that $1300 and bargain don't often mix.

Basically a decent value compared to the 3090 if you just plan on gaming. However, $500ish over a 3080 for not enough performance increase for the price. I'm still on the fence about it.

Took 2 days in the step up queue for a 3080 To. Purchased in early December. As soon as it shipped to my home, I registered it and put in my invoice. Then I immediately signed up for step up.Got my notification two days later and my 3060 Ti was sent off that night with the payment made.
