First, I spent 3 hours trying to install KINGPIN into my computer, since I have a top radiator for CPU and 3 front fans. I have to mount the KINGPIN radiator on side. There are two problems I experienced. A bit disappointed for a $2K card.
- The package does not include any mounting screws, I have to use the screws from my case package.
- The pipe from GPU to radiator is too short, after I mounted the radiator, I cannot install the GPU. I need to install the GPU first then find a place to mount the radiator. As you can see on the picture, it is very close to the top. And I have to remove my fan hub which was mounted on side and reconnect all fan connectors.
I simply switch to OC BIOS and start some tests. My setup is built this year.
CPU: AMD Threadripper 3960X@4.2G
Memory: 128G@3600Mhz
