Hopefully the 1080 hybrid will come out and be on the Step Up list before my 14 days are up. If not, I'll just step up to a 100 FE or ACX3.0 and pray for a Classified Hybrid down the road.
The non-refrence based cards will not be on the Step-Up program as noted on the Step-Up support page.
You should just Step-Up to the ACX version and then wait until the GTX 1080ti Hybrid launches sometime next year to upgrade to Big Pascal. Or just stick with your 980ti Hybrids until then.
These are the three 1080 cards available on the Step-Up Program
- EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FOUNDERS EDITION () ()
- EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 ACX 3.0 () ()
- EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 () ()
From the Step-Up Program Support Page. (I Guess I can't post links :/ )

- Products known to have a limited availability will not be made available to the Step-Up program. (Limited availability determined by EVGA.)
