I got off work an hour later than normal so I had to use my iPhone to make the purchase. I reviewed the order, and hit "place order" to find out they were already sold out. Damn 3G network sucks...

Got my 2 cards a few minutes ago, but I am infuriated with my UPS man. I took the entire afternoon off from work so that I could sign for these cards and not end up hunting for them. Only to receive a notification that they had been "signed for" and left by my mailbox at the entrance to my apartment. Couldn't be more outraged at the moment.

That's irresponsible and should be held accountable. I would complain but be careful how far you'd go with this because he might still be your UPS guy for your area and depending on the character might do something worse next time. Edit: Also that might be a federal offense if you're in the states that is.

So, Jacob. In the video you say it supports 4-Way SLI now? Can you confirm this? Also, what is the deal with the overvolting? I've been out of the loop regarding the 700 series since I'm running Titans. So, can the GTX-780 Classified be overvolted to ~ 1.30 - 1.35V? Does it require an EVBot?

If you want to have the little backplate cover, you need to order it separately for $20.

Nomanor CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN ABOUT THE BACKPLATE? I SEE EVERYONE *Removed* ABOUT IT, SO WHAT IS THE REAL ISSUE? DO WE NEED TO ORDER A SEPARATE BACKPLATE? I DON'T GET IT. We are happy to help. Two things I must remind you of first... Please re-read our TOS... Items to be specific about... - Inappropriate Language - The EVGA forums are family-friendly. Many members have children who also view these forums, and these forums are intended to be accommodating to them, as well. Profanity is not permitted in pictures or posts on the forums and will earn a warning if posted. Discussion of bodily functions, whether vulgar or humorous, is inappropriate for these forums. Moreover, using acronyms or censoring the word by use of characters to mask profanity or other inappropriate language will not be tolerated. This applies to text, pictures, videos, or any external links contained in a post. Finally, users whose usernames containing inappropriate language or references to illegal activity will be given a chance to change their username, or it will be changed for them.

If you accidentally post in the wrong section, please PM a Moderator or create a ticket so that a Moderator can move the thread to the correct section. When making a post, please use common courtesy. Do not post in all Caps, as this is "Shouting," and is considered rude. Moreover, do not hijack a member's thread by creating an off-topic post by asking for help with your own issue in another's thread, even if you have a similar issue. Create your own thread and topic for your issue, and you will receive help from the EVGA Community. Likewise, once you've created your thread, do not "Bump" your thread by creating successive posts to keep it at the top of the post list. Your thread will be answered in due time, and continually bumping your thread will earn a warning. Furthermore, do not make off-topic posts, such as “in before lock,” or other comments suggesting a thread or member requires moderation (except as defined in the EVGA Marketplace rules for the Marketplace section). Such off-topic posts serve only to derail a topic. If you feel such a post/thread requires moderation, please PM/email a moderator or report the post without communicating this in the thread.

I did not. I am concerned that with the noctua cpu fan I just bought the heat sink and the plate might touch. I will benchmark as soon as I construct my system!

Why you wait Lightening. You think AMD will have something new??? If I hear they think to stay on this until middle of 2014. Maybe I'm not right but this is much better choice. Last 3-4 years NVIDIA have better drivers and smoother gameplay that will not change in future. AMD must to think twice what they want because no they offer games and cheaper cards and that is competition with NVIDIA. They simply can't follow GK110. Before 6 months and now and for 6 months. And when launch that will to happen immediately and who knows what they can offer. GK110 in from beginning I think biggest difference between AMD and NVIDIA. I mean on chip and competitors no something close to that. HD7970 is about 30% weaker than GTX780 and that is not full power GK110 but that feeling is probably worse and difference is bigger because they have lag and always suffer from massive fps drops in games. Always, always after 5870 cheaper price is fix for that. They don't have answer on GK110 and they delay because of that not because they are satisfied with selling. I think selling is not so good as they talk.

With Lightning he means MSI GTX 780 Lightning. See more information here: http://www.tomshardware.com/news/GTX-780-Lightning-MSI,23468.html

I think selling is not so good as they talk. Because the MSI Lightning series has always matched the EVGA Classified series. Next the way things are working out the AMD HD9970 will either match the GTX 780 at a lower price, or match the GTX Titan for a lower price, or cost as much as the GTX Titan but be better in performance. And I have time my friend to wait it out.

Gentlemen, what is the difference between 780 Classified and 780 SuperClocked ACX? They have pretty much the same clocks?
