if anything, this would be the card i would finally upgrade from my gtx580 classy ultras for. as i do overclocking and gaming. we shall see how this made to order crap works and reviews on it. 

Ugh, and I just bought two 780ti SC'd a few days ago.
 
Here's hoping it will be available on step-up.

What is the estimated release date again? Early to mid January? And will these cards be available from EVGA only? Or will they be carried by resellers such as Tigerdirect, Newegg, etc. ?

Here is a twitter convo with Jacob that might help:
 

 
Well it tells you that the release is end Jan and that is a pre-order, so you will end up having the card more likely in Feb.

Starkiumwhats the difference between this and the EVGA GeForce GTX 780 Ti Dual Classified w/ EVGA ACX Cooler?

The K|ngp|n has no voltage/power limits, new ACX Cooler, design, probably clocked higher and made mostly for LN2 OCing. I wonder how much power that card can manage to use...can it do more than 500W?

When you say no voltage or power limits, is that going to be from the get go with the bios it comes with? Or are you going to have to flash it with some different bios than what it comes with?

And I don't know about you guys, but I think that a card like this you shouldn't even be bothering with SLI and whatnot, if you do that then you'll only be using either the stock cooler or a water cooler, so really you'll only be getting the same sort of clocks as you would with a normal classified card, because even with water cooling you won't use this card to its full potential, it will still run way too hot once you start pushing the OC on the serious side.

This card was meant for LN2, and ultimate OC.

Unless you're just looking for the bragging rights there is no point getting this over a classified really, you could get the same clock speeds with that watercooled as you would with this watercooled. I can't imagine many of you fancy keeping this thing under LN2 whenever you're gaming, as last time I checked you have to be bloody rich to even consider that.

As a technical exercise this thing is supreme, and pretty cheap for what it is capable of, but to fully utilise it with LN2 is completely impractical for even the enthusiast.


All this being in my opinion, of course.

My god difference between GTX780 Classified and GTX780Ti Classified is huge but with Kingpin Edition even bigger.
Maybe is better to for me to sell GTX580 and buy second GTX780 Classified for SLI than selling mine and going on GTX780Ti.
I mean from performance side... Nooo, better on Ti. I think??? I used on single and I look on their voltage regulation solution, I want back my playing with hardware as with Radeon and NVIDIA before.

 
if u want performance sli 780's(even reference)  will outperform any one 780TI no matter who makes it

kingpin is a nice card if your a bencher , for your average gamer sli 780 is way more power
Plus until its released we dont know if it too will have the classified issue with the bios

I think only EVGA sell???
I saw some price 1600e preorder, I can't remember where... 

ok... Can't post a URL, sorry...
Go to EVGA.com, european region (select region: evga.eu:english) and go to the shop, GPU part, GTX700 Serie, 780ti chipset.
GTX 780ti K|ngp|n should be first on the list...
 
So I guess I can say : GTX 780ti K|ngp|n is OUT now or should I wait until I receive it ?! 

Got it ! And It's a BEAST.
Huge and... HUGE !
:-D

why is the evbot connector back? you told us nvidia does not allow that!

so 1) did you find some arrangement.
2) are you just bad?
3) did you lie to us and actually just remove the connector because of to many rma?

I understand them... and from now when all of us experience some kind of trouble in future we must behave as mongooses... Caution!
Attention! Looking on all sides, what happen, what NVIDIA prepare, hardware in cards, what coming next, negative and positive...
