I got the step up mail 15 days ago , but if i look in detail on my products page it says in que Pending ... and it dont change ... normal ?

Yes, this is normal.  The status will change once we release cards for Step-Up.  You will receive an email with how to proceed once that happens.
 
Thanks,

Where do you see your position in the queue?

We do not show position in queue, but you will receive an email when your Step-Up is ready to continue.

Thanks,

well just started my step up going from a 3GB classified to 6GB SC. I love the classified but doesn't seem like a good overclocker to be honest.
 

I get a boost clock 1267 stable max 1293

i can't get that... low 12's. i love having a classified but i guess i wanted or thought would get better results.
guessing going form 3GB to 6GB not a bad thing for like $80...

How is the Airflow in your case?  Are you hitting temp issues for your OC or voltage issues?

My case is Define XL Titanium Grey
Side fan is Cosair sp140
idles at 25 low 22 (most of the time)
now heres the funny part.
OC 142 gpu 395 mem same OC as above!
I just did a bench mark M:LL   i hit 60. 3 runs DX11: Metro Last Light from guru
According to precision I hit 1306 and 1.200? gpuz Vram 67c
edit gpu temp 74c

OKAY then, I am thoroughly confused after reading so much... At the risk of being not quite a total moron ( even though I feel like one at times ) I have a 780Ti Classified with the Classified backplate.
I even have 37 days more of my right to step-up left. Since there is NO step-up to a Titan Black all that leaves is this one. From what I have read it seems that there is no really compelling reason to upgrade from a 3gb 780Ti to the new 6gb 780 Right? If there is I want to do it, I am all for it.
Could I get a concise reasoning for and against? Unless there really is a 780Ti coming out. I have read here and various other places... Here is another link saying a 780ti version is coming... http://wccftech.com/evga-launch-gtx-780-6gb-gtx-780-ti-6gb-variants/  I have gone through a LOT of this thread and it at times I think I have it then I read another post and I am back at square one... Thanks all! 

Pretty positive Jacob said there will be a 780Ti 6gb version being released but it may not be around in time for your step-up.
If you do the step up to the 780 6gb it is really a step down so don't do it, you may as well hold on to your 780Ti Classy.
780 6gb is basically the same as a 3gb 780 just with 3 more gigs of ram so your Ti Classy will be more powerful.
Don't do it unless you can step-up to the 780Ti 6gb.

Well I can wait as I have 37 days... I am going to hope I make it, I think I am entitled to a small break of GOOD luck? 

Has anyone heard if they will offer a step up with the reference design?

Any estimate on when the 780 6gb will for be for sale?  Got my 1st on Step Up currently but needing another for SLI...

Couldn't you just get another 780, and step that one up too, so your locked in? Like the first one?

I had seen that the step ups were currently closed..true or no?

Is the 6gb of vram worth it?

ffs... because I am from Europe I cannot step-up from my EVGA GeForce GTX 780 w/ EVGA ACX Cooler - (03G-P4-2782-KR)
Sucks... This is possible for Americans.

Oh well...

I'm sorry for the confusion, but EU customers are eligible for the step up program: http://eu.evga.com/support/stepup/

so just pulled the trigger on a 780Tiam i screwed on stepping up to 6GB ?

Don't bother stepping up. If you look at reviews of the Titan Black (virtually a 6gb 780ti) vs a 3gb 780ti there is no difference. Even at high resolutions. Even most recent reviews of the new Radeon 295x2 (4gb x 2) vs a Titan or 780ti at high surround resolutions the Nvidia cards are not as good. Keep in mind the Radeon only has 1gb more of ram than your 780ti. Its only at 2560x1440 and under is when Nvidia pulls ahead. So with 3gb or 6gb there will not be much difference as you'll most likely run out of gpu horsepower before you hit the ram cap. This of course excludes modded games like Skyrim, but this goes back you'll almost always run out of gpu hp before running out of gpu memory.

 One word X-Planei do a lot simming and i can max out the ram on the 3GB card with out tryingalso games coming out in next year or 2 will easily use more then 3GB of ram (im looking at you Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk)

sorry.. never played X-Plane.
As for Watcher and Cyberpunk, if they aren't multiplayer games I will never play them on pc. In the next two years ill have upgraded at least once. Again... you'll run out of horsepower before ram -----> if you upgrade once a generation it will not matter.
The 6gb 780 or 6gb 780ti will only benefit those at 4k resolutions, but rght now Nvidia's high end cards do not do as well as the high end Radeon cards with just 1gb more of ram. Many reviews show the ram isnt the issue either. To me... any current gen Nvidia's card being re-released with more ram is Fool's Gold to those who already plopped hard earned $ on 700 series card; this comes from someone who has/had sli Titans.
The 780ti is a monster card and it oc like crazy. Sajin (very cool EVGA forum's member) and many others have also confirmed counterpart cards with the less memory tend to oc better. My friend's 780ti oc to 1255 on air, whereas my Titan only clocked up to 1150. Both are on stock bios, too.

hey guys   Just wondering:
 
IS the SC ACX just a factory OC'ed card?
In other words will I be able to achive same clocks if just get the ACX and use precision X?
 
Just wondering if the extra $20 are worth it or not.  IS the only real benefit having a stable OC w/o the need of extra software?

Witcher 3 doesnt come out till next year and if Witcher 2 is any thing to go by IT WILL use that much ram
Titan Fall already can use 4GB
X-Plane and other flight sims can use 6GB of vram with out blinking
mine is running 1200 on just its own boost with out any help from me and settles in around 1150 Mhz  i did nudge the base up to 1Ghz for the heck of it

but for my needs i want more ram even if it costs some speed

I just received an email from the evga step-up que saying that the promotion has now started.  I have a EVGA GeForce GTX 780 SC 3GB w/ EVGA ACX Cooler. SC version.
I followed instructions to get to my product and when I click on "details" it still says that my product is not available to step-up.
 I also looked on the step-up list and it has been updated but I guess it still appears there is no existing upgrade with my "version" of my card to the 6GB.

 Can someone from EVGA help me out here?
 Since the GTX 780 SC is not on the list, as I suspected, can I just step up to the regular GTX 780 6GB and pay the difference?  Like this one:

• EVGA GeForce GTX 780 6GB w/ EVGA ACX Cooler - (06G-P4-3785-KR)

Thanks.
