well, they ghive you what you paid in full, excluding rebates. so in my case it was a pretty good deal.

i had a 6600gt agp i needed to unload (the build fell through) so i got the full 180ish back from evga as thats what my newegg invoice showed. then i got the rebate in the mail from evga. and because i stepped up at the release of the 7800gtx, the evga msrp wasn't far off from the few deals floating around.

but you're right, unless you can step up upon right at release, you will be over paying, sometimes significantly, for the new cards.

You can only do that with-in three months you bought the card.

And don't forget that you have to buy the step-up card at FULL MSRP (something 100-200 higher than newegg) and you only get to substract what you paid for your previous card. I think the deal would be better if it allowed you buy your step up card somewhere else and/or give you MSRP for your previous card.

No, it would be better if you can purchase your card and not have to upgrade for at least 6 months before the end of the step up time limit. 🙁
