Lets say I show up at EVGA on a friday some day, what say you give me a tour? :P Seriously though, i'll be there on a Friday very soon. Figure the least I can do is TRY and get a pic of the elusive 'EVGA Staff of Mystery'! :P

I don't think such a thing is allowed but hey shoot an email to webmaster@evga.com. You never know. Of course offering large amounts of barbecue, drinks, and desserts to EVGA staff might give you an advantage. LOL!

I would doubt they would too probably because of all the half finished prototypes that are all over in there being tested in some form or another. Then you probably got big boards with agenda brainstorming for products and marketing stuff they are thinking about etc..... You never know what you might run across by accident and it's not that they don't trust you but they just can't take the chance of something getting out prematurely. It's nothing personal chrome, just business man. ;)

They will probably have security ask you to leave the property, if you show up without an appointment.

I have started a thread like this long ago because I am so close to their office. They pretty much said "no". They don't do tours and the closest you could get is checking it out on Google maps but it is kinda boring from the outside. There is one review on the interwebs somewhere where the guy worked next door to the office and went by to say hello and additionally asked to bring in a card for Rma and was told that he had to ship it to them like everyone else even though he was 30 feet away...

Your best bet to meet them is to go to CES in January. You can meet them and a bunch of other people. At issue with opening their workplace to the public that is a whole big can of worms. Because if they do it for one they'll have dozens asking why they can't too. In an event like CES they are in a structured environment that they can allow that sort of thing within a framework of a scheduled meeting. Bear in mind that they'll do that in some cases, but it's taking away meeting slots from tech news reporter interviews. Key in this method is making sure you contact Joe or Jacob via email and schedule the meeting significantly before hand.

At that point I would have found some low cut brown shorts and a t-shirt and wrote UPS on it with a marker and showed up.

CMD makes us all seem to think we need some type of therapy, and that's just from interacting with him on the forums.

Hi Chrome,
Sorry for the no reply. I've been super busy lately and haven't been able to check up on the forums much. Unfortunately, due to NDA type stuff, we are not permitted to give tours. Your best bet is to meet up with Jacob (and Joe and Joey) at one of the shows we go to (like the PAX shows, NVIDIA Events, etc). If you do find yourself around our offices, we can probably come outside and say hi, but we wouldn't be able to bring you in.
Thanks!
Rob

Hell coming out to say hi would be beast. As long as I can shake your hand rob all is well lol. As for the tour I already knew....it was more joke than anything lol. Wait. If I bring my and r9 290 would you guys sign it? THAT would be awesome. I know it's not evga lol but it was free. Can't complain lol. BUT no. The shows are out. This trip is a once in a lifetime thing for me. Never even been on a plane till this trip happens. So...
