What if you are approved. The 1080ti is on the list but they're not in stock?

Or if you applied but are still in que?

Does the 90 days no longer matter then?

1. Request to start your Step-Up within 90 days of your original purchase from your product detail page
   1. Navigate to My Products under Member Home
   2. Click on View Details of the product
   3. If your product qualifies, you will see the option to start your Step-Up
2. Wait in queue until approval - this step can last from a few days to many weeks depending on demand

Just got approved for my ICX upgrade 1080FTW. Paid instantly and shipping out tomorrow. Chose Ground $0.00 for EVGA anyone who did how long did it take to receive your replacement once you paid and chose no charge from EVGA? I'm gonna do USPS Priority to send it to them. Curious as I will be out of town at end of the month.

1080 SC2 with iCX - is it using reference PCB layout, just with additional thermal sensors?

not sure where you're located, but total time for me from NJ was about a week total.  Used USPS to ship to EVGA, since they have 2-day shipping for fairly cheap ($26 insured for me), and then the free shipping back was supposed to take from friday-friday, but it came in on a wednesday instead.

Just installed ICX SC2. Can I still use Afterburner or do I need to get the EVGA software?

So bummed.
 
Wanted to get a 1080 ftw2 and use the step up program but evga is charging like 60 bucks for next day shipping.  Insane.  almost 30 usd for standard shipping....
 
the model I want is also out of stock at newegg and conveniently still $679 at amazon. 
 
Since the 9 series this whole product stock / pricing war thing has really gotten to me, :( 
 
Can we stop inflating gpu prices and mfg and ship enough to retailers pls? 
 
Thanks <3
 
 
 
 

Just buy the card you want and dont go through step up. Far easier than dealing with the wait.

Dear EVGA GTX 1080 Classified owners:
 
Thank you for being a EVGA GTX 1080 Classified owner!  EVGA understands that you have been waiting for a ICX option and we are sorry this has not become available yet, but in order to support our classified owners we are offering a special 120 Day Step-up option so that you may Step-up to the 1080Ti if you choose to.
 
If you do own a EVGA GTX 1080 Classified graphics card and wish to Step-up, then please contact our Support at 1-888-881-3842 Option 1 or by email at Support@evga.com with the registered serial number so that we can work with you to enable this option and enter you into the queue.
 
Once again thank you for your patience and for being an EVGA Customer.
 

How about the FTW owners that are still waiting in approval purgatory? I fully plan on stepping up to a Ti once I get the FTW2. I submitted my request shortly after the iCX upgrade announcement on Feb 10th and am still waiting.

If we could just skip the whole upgrade logistics from FTW ACX to iCX and go straight to Ti, it would save us all a lot of time and effort making way for a more efficient work stream for the EVGA employees dealing with all the trade ins.

Please and thank you😆

Hello,

There was much discussion over this issue, and unfortunately we decided that customers would need to complete the entire iCX Upgrade process before being able to start a step-up. I apologize for the inconvenience. If you have any other questions, please let us know.

Regards,
EVGA
