Hey guys,
 
I have a quick question about registering a new EVGA GPU. Does the name & address of the invoice needs to match with the name & address of the EVGA account under which I register a new EVGA product? I was lucky and got a GPU for a family member, but he wants to have his own EVGA account, the invoice is on my name and adress though.
 
I am in EU/Germany in terms that would make a difference for the registration/warranty.

    If the name and address don't match the original invoice when you register the GPU it will be considered a second hand product. It will still have a warranty but will be exempt from being able to use "step up" and will not be able to purchase an extended warranty for it. 
     
    I'd just have your family member register the card on their account so the invoice matches up and you have all the benefits intact. Doesn't matter who is in "possession" of the card, just that the original purchaser be the one the warranty, RMA or step up be initiated through. If you are fine with losing than, then there is nothing wrong with registering it yourself as it will still be covered under warranty regardless.
