Any ideas?

I'm on que #4 and #5 for the new 7950gx2.... This is my first time stepping up so I'm curious as to how long this process takes and how long it takes to get into my hands.


Any ideas?

Thanks!

4 and 5!!! Damn, I'm 31. I hope it doesn't take too long for them to get to me.

I checked it like a crack whore :p LOL, I would have been first if I didn't have a meeting :(
 
I spoke to Joe D at EVGA , expect availabliity in a couple weeks for step up. The last time he told me that I got an email my card was ready 5 days later

Lets hope its within a week. I was already surprised to see it posted for step up so soon. I am number 23 and my second card will be no doubt 100 or more. I should have registred my new rma last night when i got it :( Oh well maybe by the time my second one is available the driver will be released .
 
So I assume once you are approved and ready for the stepup, you'd have to fax them your original proof of purchase (to incate the price of what you paid) and you'd have to send them your old cards before they send you the new cards?


So in other words, they dont' cross-ship?


I'm just trying to understand how long this is going to be taking so I can get a better indication of when to expect them to arrive.
 
they dont cross ship on this because they want to inspect your I have them staggared. #23 and #99. Should work out so i am not down. It takes them 3 days to turn you around plus whatever shipping you chose.

You're gonna do both? I have one setup but I might cancel. My rep at CompUSA is working on getting me 2 XFX XXX editions by Thursday or Friday, for free dollars, so I won't really need a 3rd one, but maybe I'll do it anyway. I want to keep 2 7900GTX's though, since they'll still be faster in most things until Quad SLI is worked out.
 
I have a feeling it wont be long at all. Ati will release 1900 on steroids soon and thats when Nvidia will magically release a driver.

Or "Accidentally" "Leak" the driver :)
 
I'm sitting at over a month to stepup. I haven't moved from #9 in over 2 weeks. Anyone else frustrated with the STEPUP program at the moment? THis is killing me as I have my new PCI-E computer ready but can't use because I don't have a videocard I can use with it.


Stepping up from 7800 GS to a 7900GT KO.
 
Still waiting for my last 2 7950's to come. I have my one but my other 2 are still sitting at 41 and 42 in the queue. I really want to try the new Quad drivers too! :(
 
Yeah, I've read about the issues with the 7950GX2s but it seems to be a problem across their product line. They're probably losing money or something to have the #s throttled so much, or the RMAs are totally killing them (haven't heard of significant RMA issues with 7950GX2 though).
