Hi,
 
Just got my 3080 Ti FTW3. Had a couple of questions:
 
1. When the 3090 Ti comes out will I be able to step up to it? Also if you step up once is it possible to step a second time to a 4090 lets say?
 
2. If my purchase was part of a bundle from Antonline how do you figure out the step up price differential?  Currently right after I jumped on a bundle they now one week later selling the card individually. $100 above msrp.
 
3. Should I run XOC bios? Is it safe and will it get more fps?
 
Thanks.

    You can only Step-Up once per card. The card you receive from Step-Up will not have the option to Step-Up.

    1. Only when or if it shows up on the Step-Up chart.
    As per Step-Up FAQs: "Can I Step-Up a product more than once? No - A product received from Step-Up cannot be used in the Step-Up program.
     
    2. The card you are using for your step up will be credited at the MSRP that it listed for on the EVGA site at the most.
    See: https://www.evga.com/support/stepup/. "Calculating Step-Up Costs, Example 1."
     
    3. I have not used it.

    So the msrp price is that at value you paid for at time of purchase or time of step up?

    The price you would put in would be $1,429.99 which is EVGA's current MSRP on the card.

    Under "TERMS AND CONDITIONS" you'll find this "EVGA reserves the right to reduce the purchase price of a Step-Up eligible product, less any discounts, to match the current MSRP of the Step-Up eligible product."  My emphasis on "current."
     
    You might consider giving this a hard read https://www.evga.com/support/stepup/ it has a lot of useful information that might help.
     
    Good luck on your Step-Up.
