EVGA announces upgrade program


Recommended Posts

Saw on EVGA’s site that they will announce details tomorrow that will provide a trade in program for those owning a 9 or 7 series evga card that wants to upgrade to a 20 series gpu. Hopefully they will provide decent incentives and not limit upgrade options to the lower end 20mseries cards. I had a 980ti hydro copper before the 2080ti upgrade. I got a few 100 dollars for the old card but If I was aware that they were going to offer an upgrade program, I might have waited. Details will be available on their site on the 26th.

Why are they offering that (it would be nice if gigabyte did the same)?

 

Not sure. Probably to generate additional sales and continue to develop brand loyalty. They have a stellar reputation for customer service and normally offer an upgrade option if you buy a gpu and an upgraded version is launched within 90 days of purchase. This latest offer will be great for folks like me that don’t update with every new product line release. The 980ti was still doing a decent job but was not interested in taking the gamble to buy a used 1080ti due to prices being so high for a card with essentially no warranty. My guess is if the offer turns out to be a good one, previous 7 and 9 series evga card owners will forgo buying a used 10 series card and order a new 20 series instead.
