I just learned about the deadline and unable to make changes. Totally missed that part :( 




You should email webmaster@evga.com to get it fixed, most got their notifies fixed, though you should let them know why you missed the window to make changes

Don't bother.  They won't do anything.  How do I know?  Here's what they told me:

Hello,

After 10/11/21 we are no longer able to change which notifies are active.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Regards,
EVGA

This was very poorly implemented.  If you weren't paying attention to the EVGA forums, and you happened to have old cards queued, you're <removed> out of luck.
 
Why couldn't they (1) default you to your two cards with oldest queues (as they did), but (2) give you one opportunity to change your status one time without a deadline?  Can someone explain why that wouldn't have worked just as well without pissing off customers?  
 
Or if they had to stick with their stupid deadline, why couldn't they default to (1) your oldest queue, and (2) your newest queue?  That way you're less likely to <removed> someone over who happens to be more interested in the latest card he or she queued for?
 
This just wasn't well thought out.  
 
I generally like EVGA.  They make good cards and they have a good reputation for standing by their products.  But this deadline <removed> is just incredibly <removed> stupid.  I don't know if I'll ever purchase another EVGA product after this. 


Let's watch the language here. Even trying to get around a profanity filter counts. You've been warned.

just looking at it,,, it does not look like more cards are going out but it seems like the reporting back on the Q is moving more in the time stamps.

Hey everyone, I have a question. So I didn't see the email telling me to pick 2 and it defaulted to my NEWEST 2 as active, not my oldest. Am I just out of luck getting my oldest? Is there any way to fix this?

Is that "yes" a notify sent?

We are just consumers like you. There is nothing any of us can do. You need to contact EVGA directly. This is a user to user forum. The moderators of this forum aren't EVGA employees either.

That's what it says, right? If you didn't get the notify email, contact webmaster@evga.com .

So ,
1st, I understand we're all consumers here, I'm seeing if anyone else here has had this issue before I contact evga directly.
2nd, yes, It says I got a notification on one of my newer notifies. I never followed through on it because I prefer a 3080 over a 3090.
I know they won't change anything as they clearly state it on the main site, I just wanted to know if this was a common thing or a fringe case.

Edit* I realize I didn't say this in my original post, my apologies.

I get that you prefer a 3080 over a 3090, but this isn't a market with a lot of options right now. (And I assume you liked the 3090 enough to click the notify button)
2021/10/30 20:19:20
Rmiller010
Yeah, I did like it enough after waiting since October 13th of last year, I figured why not queue for a 3090 before they hike the price up. But that isn't the point of my post. Im coming here to ask a question, not to be chastised. If it's a "common" mistake it's fine, I'll just trade it for a 3080, but if not I'll pursue it further with evga.

To properly answer your question, you have a couple choices but they may not work.

First you can reach out to webmaster@evga.com and see if they'll change the active card(s) to your oldest notifies.

Or you can try to respond to the notify you received for the 3987, explain your situation and desire to purchase this card. They "might" send you another invite to purchase, maybe.

Best of luck!

Edit: if you don't have the invite to purchase email anymore here's the address, ordernotify@evga.com

I never received an email that things were reset and to re-register.

Is it even worth trying at this point?
