![]() I agree that this launch was disastrous in terms of availability, but that doesn't mean you should selfishly snatch up as many cards as you can just so you can brag about having the latest and greatest. This is among others Nvidias fault for creating this situation by not supplying the world with enuf 3080 and all the websites that cannot give you any information what place you have in an order queue.Or you know, you could not spam orders, research which card you actually want and be patient buying the luxury (not necessity mind you) that is a $700+ video card instead of robbing others of the opportunity and trying to make a profit off of them like a scalper. ![]() If I get cards I don't like I will just auction them away making some money. Since when do they not have a queue based order system. Posted on Oct 6th 2020, 8:47 Reply #2 JulhesįynxerJesus, AMAZING, was the order system RNG based before or what. This is among others Nvidias fault for creating this situation by not supplying the world with enuf 3080 and all the websites that cannot give you any information what place you have in an order queue. So I am now topping 50 preorders on different sites and will continue relentlessly until I get a card I like. I now also put my self up at EVGAs new mail queue system with several accounts and all different SKUs of EVGA 3080 graphic cards on each account so that is another 20 cards in my queue. By spamming orders I now have a chance of getting a card with in weeks instead of months. This is thanks to that you never know where you are in an order queue and if I order just one card and happen to chose one with a long order queue or delivery time it could be months before i get a card. At the moment I have orders for around 30 graphics cards. So to resolve this I have spammed orders for several different 3080 SKUs at each major retailers in Sweden paying with credit and just waiting to see who can deliver first. What is MORE annoying is that you have NO CLUE what you queue position is in any website when ordering a 3080. Seems as most of the world was not actually ready to receive orders for the 3080 in a proper way. Jesus, AMAZING, was the order system RNG based before or what. The system is first being rolled-out for the US, with other regions following suit according to its success. Check after the break for the full explanation on how this system works, which was given by EVGA's own Jacob Freeman. It could also bring some measure of protection against scalpers and bot purchase applications. This could bring some semblance of normalcy to the system, and reduce the number of F5-mashing users that have to spend their precious time waiting for an opportunity to snag one of NVIDIA's latest. Users who have previously asked for a notification have already been added to the queue, and the email with the order link is only active for 5 hours after it's been sent to your account - after this period of time, your chance in the queue will be passed on to the next in line, and you'll have to reenter it again. ![]() Users who are being matched with inventory availability will be sent a secure email to the account they registered their notification with (provided the email is also registered with EVGA itself) which will then allow the user to order his select EVGA RTX 30-series card. Users who use the "notify me" button on the EVGA website are essentially sitting in line for the moment where EVGA adds new cards to its stock (all RTX 3080 cards are out of stock at time of writing). The company has now implemented a queue-based system, where email notifications are being used as a sort of pre-register for the acquisition of NVIDIA's new, hot-selling cards, right in wake of comments from NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang that supply for this particular series of graphics cards should not meet demand until early 2021.
