I'm in Jacob
 
How many cards are we allowed to pre-order?
 
Hopefully 2 for SLI
 
Do we have any ETA for the first pre-order shipment?

Hi Guys,
 
I'm not familiar with the Kingpin range of cards.. Are they simply aimed at the hardcore overclocker?
 
Will they have more VRAM?
 
Cheers

Nice card but i'm holding out till GM200/GM210.

Same Here, 
 
IMO, This 980 Classified K|ngp|n Version would have been awesome with the Full Blown Maxwell Chip.
 
 

I'm not going to wait for big Maxwell, for my needs this 980 KingPin is ideally-efficient overkill, would rather see the 20nm/16nm die shrink (if that ever happens) before jumping into a more powerful GPU. That gunmetal shroud on the KingPin will match nicely with a CaseLabs gunmetal and white interior and the magnificent Asus X99 WS gray and black E-ATX board oh my.
 
Will feel much more comfortable when EK can confirm producing an EVGA logo type block for the KingPin 980 using the new feed from top center design, not the old design on the standard 980 HC. Certain they will produce the standard blocks, but the EVGA LOGO single slot block from EK is so much more beautiful.
 
Whether its rotated 45degrees or not, won't show too much through the E V G A plexi view, but would be cool if they did rotate it, like the Gigabyte and MSI recent blocks.
 
Derick and Luc, please make it so. 

GM200 + Good amount of memory + true single slot classified HC.  Somebody please get that HC water block to weight watchers for some slimmin' up, it's still taking two seats on the plane, I swear!!! 

I have signed up. I will consider ordering 4 total..... What are the chances of getting 4 with consecutive serial numbers, lol.

I am very much ready for an extra GB of VRam.

Guys look baseplate... madness. 
 

 
Everything in future I will try to follow that colors, black, silver, grey.
Little for change. It's good because I order black sleeve, In one moment I thought on red.

can i step up my 980 classy for the classy kingpin?i like the led colours.

lol
 

They have never allowed a step to Classified or k|ngp|n cards. One could wish though. Usually it is only reference PCB. It would be awesome if they allowed Classified users to step up to K|ngp|n cards, but I really hope they don't so I get a chance to grab a few while everyone else sells their Classifieds, lol.

Looks like I will be stepping up my 980GTX SC :)

Are they allowing it?

980 FTW isn't even on the step up list, nor the Classified, so I see a lot of things appearing on the market place very soon.

I'm waiting..............oh never mind it will happen.........Give it time....can't complain about: no back plate
 
no one pays attention to the : INCLUDES EXCLUSIVE ITEM- STAY TUNED FOR MORE DETAILS:

No, I won't participate in the rumor mill... I do know, the boss (K|ngp|n) himself said that the evbot is coming although unnecessary for the new cards... Wink Wink.

You started it anyway LOL

Nope, you are incorrect.

I can grab screen shots. That was only fact, NOT rumor mill. Fact isn't rumor.

Not questioning your intentions or facts. You know as I do ANYTHING can cause the rumor mill to fly in to action. human nature.....
