While this sucks, EVGA was the ONLY manufacturer to come even close to msrp, and they didn’t jack their prices up 10-15% every 6 months like the others. They’re also the only one that did a queue. Nvidia is the bad guy here (and indirectly crypto).

Zotac is king once again

I assume this will end up as taxable income? Will EVGA provide a 1099?

 
Yes, I confirmed with EVGA that for folks over a certain amount (I believe it is $600, but don’t quote me on this specific number), EVGA will require a 1099.  

Mr. 'EVGA doesn't pay me anything', what did you cash out at? $10,000?

I used to participate in EVGA's folding team but stopped quite a few years ago. At least I can get some cash with my points now.

Personally, I can't thank EVGA enough for keeping their Associate and EVGA Bucks programs active throughout the pandemic. Many people, including me, desperately needed some type of camaraderie to keep their morale boosted. We found it here in the EVGA forums, supporting eachother, during the worst chip shortage in the history of this industry. EVGA kept their prices at MSRP, while other manufacturers and resellers made deals with resellers to overcharge based on stock. Best of luck to all of you. I am a 15+ year EVGA customer, and my loyalty is confirmed.
 
Outstanding Work!

Nice ride while it lasted...I will remain here. for there are some really great people here...well worth knowing...EVGA still has great support and excellent products.  While other companies gouged prices, EVGA kept theirs realistic and didn't offend.

We were lucky evgabucks program lasted this long.
 
 
 
 
 

Well, didn't have any EVGABucks to give up in the first place, so no big loss.

This is so sad to see, first the warranty now the EVGA bucks. I don't know if your leadership has changed but seriously take a look back and see where you are heading with these decisions, because this will only lead to another MSI.....
