Just received my queue number.

Thank you for your pre-order for the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3080 Eagle OC 10GB GDDR6X PCI-Express Graphics Card on order *******.
You are currently in queue position 449. Please keep checking your emails, we will send an update after each shipment with your new position.
Seems like the queue position doesn't reflect the time the card was ordered!
You're comparing your Eagle OC with his Eagle order? Or is there only OC? But you're right, it's done on when Payment got processed, not when you clicked the button.
