I just started my step up from the old 260 core 192 to the new 55nm 260 and i just wanted to see if anyone could give me some insight on how this works. I get everything except the shipping back to evga. Do i have to use the RMA number to ship it back? I've never RMA'd anything before so i'm not sure how that works.

Its not called RMA when you step up. This is what happens.
You sign up, your in queue. When your 0 in the queue, you get an email saying to ship your old card back. They have to test your card and make sure it passes their tests. After you have passed them, they will ship out your step up card.
You pay for shipping both ways. Their rules, dont ask me why they dont cross-ship. So you will be out of a video card for 1-2 weeks....maybe even a bit more. If you have a old card, great. Use that in the mean time. Otherwise, I'd say the best thing to do is go to a local retail store, and buy a crappy video card. Ask for the return policy, then return it in due time. Repeat that step if necessary for a longer time.
Good luck. Sometimes its not worth it to step-up. Here are some links below that might help you. Look around there, you will find most of your answers there.
