If I get evga 8800 gts g92, and later 9 series comes out, can I use the ste-up for the 9 series ultra? Or is it only for the edition I got and lower? For an example since I got gts, will I only get gts and lower? or would I be able to get ultra?

How does this step-up exactly work?

you could get an ultra. i was gonna buy an 8600 GT and then step up to the 8800GT when it was available.
 
The whole step up process takes quite a while. I think you would want to make sure you have a backup card if you do it.

You need to trade your card in within 90 days, 3 months. You'll need the receipt or invoice or whatever, the warranty sticker can't be taken off, card can't be damaged, etc. Other than that, You can step-up to any card you want.
 
how much more do I have to pay? is it all the same price?
if so it would be the same price to upgrade from 8600gt to 9series ultra as to gtsg92 to 9 series ultra?
 
i think you just pay the difference.

so if the 8600 is 200 and the ultra is 1000 you would pay 800 to step up.

im probably wrong tho.
 
yeah i decided not to step up from the 8600GT to 8800GT cos i may as well have waited. i might have done something to break the 8600 before i steped up. wasnt worth it.
 
how long will it take for the new graphic card? about a week? Then I would'nt be able to use my pc until I had a dif video card or until i get the newer 1.
 
Also, if they exchange it for us, do they refurbish it and resell it? If so, then isn't it possible the video card you get could've been refurbished and used?

And how do I know if the video card supports wide screen? And if it does, how would I switch it from widescreen to normal screen and vice versa?

Lastly, does Evga do the step-up for all there products? or just the video cards?

I believe they will send you a brand new product. Since you're STEPPING UP, then you should know that you'll be getting a gpu that supports widescreen...even older gpus support widescreen resolutions. I don't really get your switch it from widescreen to normal screen thing...you're either using widescreen resolutions for a widescreen monitor or you're not?
