I got in under the 10 minute mark. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

Good Luck Everyone with todays new que sign up
Wee doggie that Kingpin is a salty dog but guaranteed to get the job done

Part of me almost wishes I'd waited for the Kingpin, but in reality it doesn't actually perform THAT much better on the Hybrid cooler it comes with, it still has power limit issues unless you're willing to run it on the LN2 BIOS (from what I understand, I could be wrong about that) - so the 3090 not really being worth $1600+ is compounded by the Kingpin being $1999+ - even saying that, I'd love to own one, I've owned a Classified Card & motherboard before (what Vince named them before eVGA started naming them after him with the K|ngp|n moniker), even still have the EVBot, but I've never had an actually-branded-Kingpin card.
But alas, the YOLO got me & purchased this lovely 3090 FTW3 Hybrid, which I am enjoying very much so far.
 
Just did a very extensive run through 3 Hives in Marvel's Avengers, never went above 46C on the core (I have the game capped at 120Hz/60FPS because sadly it has crashing issues at higher frame rates still), highest temp recorded was 54.5C on PWR4, that was while running a 1980MHz "OC" on a 950mV undervolt, 333W max power draw.
 
I did encounter the hilarious GN moment earlier today during a Precision X1 OC scan, the "to my knowledge, the inside of my GPU did not exceed the temperature of the Sun" iCX error readout of 6500+C on one of the vRAM sensors ^_^ Add to that the fact that the XOC "OC" BIOS doesn't have the capability to set the fans to 0%/0 RPM, if you command your fan curve to do so (which is ridiculous, because the 3080 FTW3 Ultra card I have can do that on both the stock OC & XOC OC BIOSes) - yeah, it's not "perfect", but that's part of it's charm no? lol
 
It's kind of silly a card that costs this much has these little quirks, makes it very obvious NVidia did not give board partners enough time to really vet their designs before launch.

I agree, At that cost you would expect perfection, but then again perfection does not exist.
Im hoping to get a good que for the Ultra Hybrid today.
As frustrating as it is with these que's, I just need to keep reminding myself that my 1080TI-FTW3 is doing just fine and will have no issues holding me over until my que pops.

How many/any of y'all so far sign up for the Kingpin?  Just curious.

Too bad the site died in Firefox but worked in Edge.  Kind of frustrating, but oh well :(

Do people really want the Hybrid or just trying to get a card?
