So I have to rma my beloved 6850k thing up and died on me a few weeks ago. I know when ive rma'ed some evga gpus ive gotten a newer version of my gpu because they ddint have mine in stock any more. Has any one ever gotten a free rma upgrade from intel?

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

that can hardly happen (to say never). isn't the same scenario, intel is manufacturer, they have plenty stock in their own fabs, they have an amazing RMA department, they act really fast and sometimes even they can send you a new CPU before you send yours, however they will only replace the same CPU.
Only way to get a "cheap" not "free" upgrade is via Retail Edge Program, where they offer massive discounts.

I have never heard of it happening. Plus, any "upgrade" would put you on a different platform...x299.
