Welcome to the EVGA Step-Up™ Program. In order to give our customers the greatest amount of flexibility when purchasing EVGA video cards, we have instituted the EVGA Step-Up™ Program. Participants will be allowed, for one time only, to trade in their existing EVGA video card and upgrade to a select greater performing video card. Not all customers will be eligible for this program.

So if you buy a card, and 2 and a half months later a better one comes out, you can trade it in? Pretty badass.

yeah, but you might have to pay a little bit.  I was hoping the new cards would come out before my 90 days was up on my Ultra but that did not work out.

you pay the difference in price, i think.  I mean you are still losing money, but you have a chance at getting a better card, and just cause you used the cards, doesn't mean the value goes down.

not bad but yea...putting it together should take like 30 mins and the OS installation would be the rest =P  You definitely have a nice system now..hope it all boots fine on the first try

I would take out the fan controller and plug the cpu fan directly into the mb IMO
