Hi All,
 
I just wanted to address a few questions in this thread.
 

• Although the same chipset, you can upgrade from an EVGA GTX 780 3GB to an EVGA GTX 780 6GB (we normally don’t allow Step-Ups within the same chipset)
• If you go to http://www.evga.com/articles/00830/ and sign up to be notified and are within your 90 day Step-Up window, your Step-Up will be locked in regardless if availability and Step-Up starts after your 90 day window has passed!

 
Jacob will try to answer some of your other questions later today!
 
I have updated the original post with this information as well.
 
Thanks,
Rob

So glad Jacob give another site info before eVGA's own freaking forums!!!

 
Apologies I try to answer questions when I see them and I did not have a chance to review the ones in here. Any other questions please post in here if not answered already.

Interesting. I just acquired a 780gtx classified 3gb. The communication suggests that this new card is a base version with 6gb. I wonder if there will be a 6gb classified version, or whether the extra 3gb provides more performance than the classified's extra clock speed? Is upgrading from a classified even allowed in program? I chose the classified as it was on sale for basically the price of a regular 780.

Yes, you can upgrade from a Classified.

 

Were you talking about this site: 
 
I'm trying to figure out if he was providing $549.99 as a reference to current model cards or saying it's the US price of the 780 SC 6GB??

 
That is the current target price of 6GB reference. Once the card is available at EVGA.com the final pricing will be listed there.

Someone just signed me up for the step up program without asking me first which is.... not very convenient. I just wanted to ask that if I have signed up and I am selected for the step up will I have to actually do it? I do not want to change my current card and had no intention of signing up in the first place. Thanks .

No you do not have to sign up once the card is released.

A couple of questions.  Will there be a version we can step up to that has a dual bios?  I have the 780 FTW and I mainly bought it for the dual BIOS.  Secondly, I signed up to be notified with 2 days left in my step-up window.  Once the step-up becomes available, how many days do I have to decide if I want to go through with the step-up?
 
Also, before you had updated your post, I had emailed support about the 90-day window and got this as a response:
 
"Hi,
Unfortunately the program has the strict 90 day window. The announcement was made to let people know that it is coming and if they are within the proper window they have the change to step up to it. After the 90 days from purchase however that option is no longer available. I do apologize for any confusion about the program.
Regards,
EVGA"
 
So which one is true?  Is the support staff not yet privy to the exception?

Same complaints every time a new model of GPU (or any other updated product) is released. You'd figure after a couple of centuries of the same pattern, folks would figure out the nature of the beast.

Unless those complaining were effectively born yesterday, us veterans get it, or at least we should.
 
I figure the Titan Z will take the top spot from Black thus the only reason a 6GB Ti would show up.  But dayum!
 

You got EXACTLY what you paid for. Whether a product is new for 1 month or 1 year you paid for that same product and got it. You are not paying for it to be the newest. If you want the newest you pay again and again until you are satisfied (which will be never). 
 

Couldn't agree with you more.... I didn't pay a premium on a newly released video card so it can be replaced with a better and cheaper one 2-3 months later...

Actually in my personal opinion what would be nice is a 4GB GTX 780ti card to match more or less what AMD is offering for memory.

I would like to see 6gb's not only on the 780 vanilla, but on the 780 Classified too.

hell yeah man!!!  I just recently purchased a GTX780-Classified card myself just last week, but I'm holding off on installing it, as i'll be getting a new PC case to put all the parts (and my new card) in.  especially since I was given a free copy of the upcoming "Daylight" game just for buying the card.
