Have a lifetime warranty and it died, what would they replace a 7 year old card with now?

Submitted a ticket for an RMA. I'm shocked that the card has a lifetime warranty and I was smart enough to register it when I bought it in January of 2011.

Well you should be in for a nice upgrade, my 590 blew up the other week - sent it back for an RMA, no problems at all with the process and the RMA page has updated to show that they are sending me a GTX 970 SC Gaming ACX 2.0, quite a nice upgrade from my trusty 590 - and will still have 3+ years of the original warranty left.
As usual excellent service from EVGA.

Nice.
How come I can't find that exact part number here on the website?

Our RMA stock is different from our "Sale" stock, our website only lists products that are currently or recently for sale. The specs of this card can be found at https://www.geforce.com/h...gtx-950/specifications

Well my RMA has shipped and is on it's way back to me but the part number for what has been shipped has changed multiple times. Can support tell me what's coming my way?

Once your replacement ships out, it closes the RMA, so no info will be available under the "My Open RMA" page.
You should find the info for the new card under the "My Products" page (EVGA should have registered it for you)

Hello,
I just verified that the info should be showing on your product page now.
