Hey guys, my first EVGA purchase was my first PC build with a 8800 GTS :) I decided to come back to EVGA since I heard this talk about step-up programs with 90 - days limitation.
 
I had some questions...
 
First of all, if I replace my current 680 GTX 4gb with 2 780 6gb SLI... will I be able to step-up the 780s to the new cards coming out soon? the 800 series.
 
Thanks everyone.

    If you buy brand new 780's right now and the 800 series comes out within 90 days then yes you would be able to step up the cards.

    As gankernation said, if they come out within 90 days AND are included in the step up program within that time. We have no firm info on when the 800s will be out, and even if we did, there is no guarantee that they will be available for step up right away. The 90 day deadline is firm, so keep this all in mind when making your decision.
