    I really hope so too! That's the reason I chose EVGA brand for getting my 780ti - 17 days left here... fingers crossed!

    Same here, and the main reason that I upgraded to a 780ti instead of waiting for Maxwell. 12 days for me.

    I would be surprised if they don't do it, it would put off a lot of evga buyers as that's a big selling point for many.
     
    You have to remember that the main office is in America, by the time they had added the step up to the USA site it was past closing at the Germany branch.
     
    I wouldn't be surprised if it was available on Monday

    well the only reason i got the 780ti from EVGA was because of their step up program XD so if EU doesn't get it I'll be mad.

    Same here, I've got two 780Ti classified cards from EVGA just for this feature. I'm in Turkey, which counts as EU.

    Thanks a lot rjohnson11! I really bet on good news upcoming Monday. Fingers crossed
     
    Of course the 780ti still is great and the 980 upgrade wont change my life but still the key selling point of the EVGA brand is the unique step-up program - especially if you purchase an evga card knowing about the upcoming maxwell but relying on step-up promise.

    I hope so and I'll do my best to get info for you. No guarantees though. EVGA EU doesn't work on the weekends.

    exactly, I knew Maxwell was coming so even though MSI has slightly better cooling and cheaper i paid a premium on an EVGA card (even though i'm on my 3rd EVGA 780ti and this one rattles.....). I hope i don't get let down.

    Im also anxiously waiting for news... 31 days left... the fact that even if i wanted i couldnt step-up from 770 to 780 is making me very worried... all the cards that are available for europeans are actually weaker than what i have!! Please let us upgrade to 970 too, not just 980.

    'eligible to step up at launch'
     
    When was the 980GTX launched?

    Officially that may have been Thursday by NVIDIA or when it appeared on the EVGA website which I believe was Friday at 1 minute after midnight Pacific standard time I believe (could be wrong about that).
