    What kind of product will I get?

    All Step-Up replacements are new. There are limitations to what products are available to Step-Up TO, these are listed below.
    Step-Up products are considered a special new product, warranty will start from the shipping date of your new product from EVGA Step-Up.

    Hello Refugee47,
     
    All Step-ups will be issued a NEW Retail boxed product.  The accessories included with the Retail SKU will be provided inside just like if you picked it up NEW Retail from the store.

    The reason I ask is because I RMA'd a card within 30 days of purchase and was told i'll get a new card as a replacement which was true but it came in an EVGA box with no accessories .

    Yup , that's it .

    Looks like someone messed up. You should get a new retail box with accessories and not the brown box without accessories.

    No problem glad to help.
     
    The brown boxes are used for RMA/Warranty services.  All RMA's will use the brown box for your replacement and if you are within 30 days of purchase you should receive a NEW retail box for your replacement.  On very rare occasions you may receive a NEW product in a brown box for the 30-day from purchase RMA cases.  
     
    However I can confirm that NEW Retail stock is reserved for step-up and will always be Retail Box and NEW with the accessories.

    I RMA'd a card within the first 30 days of purchase and got a brown evga box with just the card in it . I dont think its even new because theres stains on the card and no plastic on the fans .

    a simple phone call should alleviate that problem,
     
     
    but I though you were doing a step-up?

    If you can email pictures of the white stains to support@evga.com , we'll be happy to have a look. It's more than likely simply leftover flux from the manufacturing process, but if you're concerned about it, we can definitely assist.
