By participating in the iCX Upgrade Program, you ("you" refers to you or anyone who participates in the EVGA ACX 3.0 to iCX Program; you may also refer to "participant" or "customer") also agree to be bound by the EVGA website ("EVGA.com") Terms of Use Policy, Privacy Policy, Store Terms, and all other policies, conditions, limitations and disclaimers appearing on EVGA.com and incorporated into these Terms.

Requirements

• The EVGA ACX 3.0 to iCX Upgrade Program is only available to residents of the contiguous United States, Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico, Canada and select European countries. A list of eligible European countries can be located at http://eu.evga.com/eligible-countries/.
• The EVGA ACX 3.0 to iCX Upgrade Program is an optional upgrade program beginning February 10, 2017, and available only for a limited-time, until February 28, 2017. Dates are subject to change without notice.
  • Once the EVGA ACX 3.0 to iCX Upgrade Program expires, customers may no longer submit for iCX Upgrades, nor will EVGA make exceptions for customers that fail to take advantage of the iCX Program while it is open.
• This iCX Upgrade Program is available only to EVGA ACX 3.0 customers with qualifying EVGA ACX 3.0 graphics card part numbers.
  • Please refer to the chart above to see a list of eligible graphics cards for the EVGA ACX 3.0 to iCX Upgrade Program.
• EVGA ACX 3.0 customers must have a valid and active account at EVGA.com to participate in the iCX Upgrade Program.
• EVGA ACX 3.0 customers must register any and all EVGA ACX 3.0 graphics cards that the customer wishes to use in the iCX Upgrade Program to the customer's EVGA account.
• EVGA ACX 3.0 customers will not be able to request an iCX upgrade unless the qualifying ACX 3.0 graphics card is registered to the customer's account. In the case of multiple qualifying ACX 3.0 graphics cards, each card must be registered to the customer's account.
• EVGA ACX 3.0 customers with a qualifying graphics card are eligible for 1 (one) upgrade from a qualifying ACX 3.0 graphics card to 1 (one) iCX upgrade of a like model. No exceptions, substitutions or exchanges are permitted. Each upgrade is priced at $99.99, subject to taxes, fees, and optional shipping purchases. Residents of the states of California and Florida are subject to state sales taxes on the iCX Upgrade Program.
  • There are no limitations to the number of times an EVGA customer may participate in the iCX Upgrade program, subject to the iCX Upgrade Program Terms and Conditions.
• Each upgrade includes one EVGA iCX shirt (while supplies last), and complimentary return ground shipping.
  • EVGA will attempt to send you a shirt based on the shirt size listed on your EVGA profile page. If your shirt size is not available or no shirt size is listed, EVGA reserves the right to substitute a different shirt size (while supplies last).
  • Complimentary return ground shipping will be provided. However, iCX Upgrade Participants will also have the option to purchase a faster return shipping method, subject to limitations based on geographical location, APO/FPO addresses, and other shipper limitations.
• Participants must submit each upgrade request at www.evga.com/icxupgrade within the duration of the EVGA ACX 3.0 to iCX Upgrade Program.
  • Once the iCX Upgrade Program expires, EVGA ACX 3.0 customers with a qualifying ACX 3.0 graphics card or graphics cards will be unable to submit additional iCX Upgrade requests.
  • So long as a participant has submitted an iCX Upgrade request within the Program's limited duration, EVGA will honor the iCX Upgrade request, provided that the participant remains in the Upgrade queue and timely follows all directions given by EVGA.
• Participants are responsible for ensuring that their profile information on EVGA.com is up-to-date, and should review the listed shipping address prior to submitting a request.
  • For PayPal purchases, participants must ensure the PayPal account information is up-to-date, as PayPal payment processing uses the shipping address listed on the PayPal account and will override the address listed on the participant's EVGA profile.
• After submission, EVGA ACX 3.0 to iCX Upgrade participants will be placed in a queue on a first-come, first-served order. No exceptions.
• Upon reaching the top of the queue, EVGA will email you to let you know that your iCX Upgrade card is ready. At this time, participants will be required to purchase their iCX upgrade, and any faster shipping options, if desired and available.
• Participants may pay for the $99.99 iCX Upgrade purchase with EVGA Bucks, PayPal and/or a credit card.
  • Participants may purchase the full upgrade amount with EVGA Bucks; however, because EVGA Bucks consist of single dollar ($1 USD) denominations and are indivisible, EVGA Bucks may only be used for a full dollar amount. As a result, iCX Upgrade participants may elect to voluntarily round up the price (i.e. $100.00) to purchase the full price of the iCX Upgrade with EVGA Bucks.
  • iCX Upgrade participants receive complimentary free ground shipping. If a faster shipping method is selected, participants will be required to pay the remainder with PayPal or a credit card. EVGA Bucks may not be used to purchase faster shipping methods, per the terms and conditions of the EVGA Bucks program. For a full explanation of EVGA Bucks, please see the EVGA Bucks page.
  • Residents of the state of California and Florida are required to pay sales tax on an iCX Upgrade. Because EVGA Bucks may not be used to pay for taxes or shipping, residents of these states may still elect to pay for the $99.99 iCX Upgrade with EVGA Bucks, but will also be required to pay the sales tax with PayPal or a credit card, even if EVGA Bucks are used to purchase the iCX Upgrade in full.
• Once the iCX Upgrade is purchased, EVGA will provide a RMA number within 1-2 business days.
• After receiving the RMA number, participants must ship their qualifying ACX 3.0 graphics card(s) to EVGA.
  • Participants must ship their qualifying ACX 3.0 graphics card(s) prior to receiving their iCX Upgrade graphics card. The EVGA Cross-ship RMA option and EVGA Advanced RMA (EAR) options are not available for the iCX Upgrade Program. No exceptions.
  • Participants are responsible for any shipping costs and materials to ship their ACX 3.0 product to EVGA. Tracking numbers and shipping insurance are not required, but are recommended.
• Once EVGA receives your ACX 3.0 graphics card, EVGA will review the product and confirm receipt if your graphics card is in original factory condition.
  • The ACX 3.0 card must be in original factory condition as outlined in the EVGA Global Warranty, and may not have any physical or liquid damage or modifications.
• Once approved, EVGA will auto-register the iCX Upgrade graphics card and ship out your brand new EVGA 10-Series iCX Card!
  • Products received through the iCX Upgrade Program will be registered to the participant's EVGA account. No exceptions.
  • Products received through the iCX Upgrade Program carry the EVGA 3-Year Global Warranty, subject to other Terms and Conditions of the iCX Upgrade Program. The warranty period will begin from the date the iCX Upgrade product ships from EVGA.

Products received from the iCX Upgrade program are not eligible for promotions listed on EVGA.com, except where noted otherwise and not prohibited by law.
  • iCX Upgrade products will carry over any Extended Warranty from the ACX 3.0 product sent in by participant. Otherwise, iCX Upgrade products are not eligible for the EVGA Extended Warranty program.
  • iCX Upgrade products will carry over any EVGA Advanced RMA (EAR) from the ACX 3.0 product sent in by participant.
  • iCX Upgrade products are automatically eligible for the EVGA Step-Up program. Because EVGA automatically registers your product prior to shipping, your 90-Day Step-Up window begins on the shipping date for your iCX Upgrade product. The EVGA Step-Up Program Terms and Conditions apply to your iCX Upgrade product and can be located at www.evga.com/stepup. To check your EVGA Step-Up status or expiration date, please go to www.evga.com/community/myProducts.asp, find your iCX Upgrade product, and click the "View Details" button.

Refunds will not be given for iCX Upgrade costs or differences in currency conversion rates should you choose not to upgrade your ACX 3.0 card(s). The iCX Upgrade program does not have a monetary value and cannot be exchanged for cash or EVGA Bucks.
