pctechtronics How are they even on ebay and is that price point close to what they will cost. $1400.00 !?!
lolno. They are that price on Ebay because some people cant wait and will pay that. True price will probably be in the area of 700+ bucks.
Yeah but how did someone get their hands on them to begin with? Are they leaked from reviews or something? How are they for sale on eBay before the EVGA site? Just curious.

The better cards i'm looking for just may be out earlier than i think. I'm waiting for the 6 to 8 gig GPUs. I did see some 980 Classies on Ebay in the 700 something range.

So when the 980 classified is released, is that a card that is able to be stepped up too?

Usually you cannot step up to the classifieds.

You can step up to a reference model is there is one. You just can't go from Classified to Classified, for example.

The Other big question is when they do get around to releasing this card is what will the MSRP be? I have just seen on Fleabay where at an Auction they didn't sell one for $870 + $50 Shipping because it didn't meet the "reserve price"!

The other other big question is how many will they have in stock? If we've been waiting a month for this then they better not sell out within 2 minutes or else riot.

Right now they haven't even had any "vanilla" GTX 970/980's in EVGA stock, So I figure it's a safe bet there won't be many Classifieds available on release day. If I Knew they were going to be this scarce, I would have never sold my four GTX 980 SC's two weeks ago (and Yes, I know I am a Big Dummy for doing that!)

Yes, Since I have Always been mainly into Extreme Overclocking/Benching/Testing, My reasons for selling the four GTX 980 SC's I had and now trying to obtaining GTX 980 Classifieds (which are similar in features to the Previous GTX 780 Classifieds I have used ) is that they have additional features I find useful such as two eight-pin power connections (instead of two six-pin) for additional power capability, a triple BIOS selection switch used for flashing additional modded BIOS's and an EVBot port (Allows Voltage changes to All cards at the same time when they are under Load running programs). If I am eventually able (or Lucky enough) to purchase four GTX 980 Classifieds, I will use them again in the same 4-Way SLI configuration for Overclocking/Benching/Testing purposes using a Chilled Water Cooling system somewhat similar to my previous EVGA GTX 780 Classified Rigs and 780Ti Classified Kingpin Edition 4-Way SLI setups as shown in my "Mods Rigs" shown below my Avatar. Everyone has their own various different requirements/reasons for using these cards whether they want them in a single, 2-Way, 3-Way or 4-Way SLI configuration perhaps just to run games or trying to "push the Limits" of the cards or even just because they want to have the latest components in their systems and are satisfied running at the stock factory settings.

Usually you cannot step up to the classifieds.
ya see thats what i thought but i see all these ppl on random forums here talk about stepping up to non refrerence models all the time like they done it before so it had me wondering if classified is one of them cards when released.

Two weeks ago this was posted: EVGA_JacobF Mid to late Oct.
Three days ago this was posted: EVGA_JacobF Its on the way...
Those comments suggested maybe a few more weeks and Now the "Word" is it won't be released until Late November/Early December?

I believe Jacob comments are based on EVGA's road-map not on reality and reality are late November early December according to EVGA's rep that I talked to on the phone today.

It's only been Just about a Month ago, I bought a New EVGA X99 Classified, Intel 5960X and 16GB Corsair Dominator Platinum 2800, and of course my Now (unfortunately) Sold four GTX 980 SC's and since I have No other Graphics Cards that I care to use in this New System and the EVGA Product Page has absolutely Nothing available in a 980 series , Guess I'll be reduced (Once Again) to just surfing the Internet for "Suitable Similar Replacement".
