whether EVGA will accept it after the promotion date ends is the question though, yeah..
 



Thanks, hopefully someone from EVGA can answer this one, I'll get a model that comes with a backplate if they won't.

I ordered a new card so I'll apply for this. But what is the advantage of a backplate? Other than looking really cool?

OH didnt notice that from the egg .
I dont think you will be able to get it because basically they are sending a card from US hence it has a US based serial .
May be you should order from amazon.in . Then you will be entitled for that.
I'm not sure . Contact evga about this.

The backplate promotion says that they will ship in November and it also says that STEPUP 970s will automatically ship with a backplate does this mean we have to wait until November to get our step up cards? I would apretiate an answer. Thanks.



We will likely start shipping the backplates before November (not confirmed yet, but likely) so this shouldn't be an issue pending stock on the 970s available for Step-Up.
 
Thanks,
Rob

Hi I just registered my EVGA GTX 970 "04G-P4-2974-KR". The problem is I bought it in the store and I didn't get an invoice. I only got a receipt is there any way to still get the backplate?

Is this no longer active or has it been cut off from demand? I have registered my card purchased on 9/25 and uploaded the invoice, and got confirmation emails back of both as well. However when I try to click on the "Request Your FREE Backplate" green bar, nothing happens. It also says right below "You have no registered specific EVGA GeForce cards."

***EDIT*** Never mind, I see my model is the 1972KR and not included. Is it because of the reference blower cooler and the backplate won't fit that design? That is just NOT right. Boooooo. Almost makes me want to return the card now.

Well buddy Asia region [ asia.evga.com/articles/00876/EVGAs-Got-Your-Back/ ] also offers same , that is why i am asking here that they ship to ASIA Address or not . Cause i am so much interested with that SSC Edition [ 04G-P4-2975-KR ]  but without back plate i will not go to purchase it .

Registered 2x EVGA GTX 970 SC's (few weeks back) and 2x EVGA GTX 970 FTW's (few days back). They are still pending approval.
Hope to see they are really getting shipped before November. Tired of the wait.

Especially considering it showed something else (which caused havoc when it was removed), where it did not mention that it would take several weeks before the backplates being shipped at all.
Don't get me wrong; I am happy with the free back plates (to which we were entitled too), however don't understand why it has to take this long. Oh well.
