I've heard about this and have a few questions about it:
 
#1- How do I go about getting it?
#2- Do I void my warranty if something happens with it?
#3- Does the use of Precision X for overclocking void your warranty?
 
Also.. is there a kingpin overclocking guide somewhere?  I saw a 1 page PDF file I found off google for the kingpin but it wasn't very helpful.
 
Thanks guys.. you're always a big help!

    If you do not have a Kingpin classified video card then you should not flash your card with this BIOs. If you have a Kingpin original BIOs and an original Kingpin classified video card then you'll find that the card is already highly overclocked. 
     
    It is highly recommended that you do not flash your video card with any BIOs not made for the card. If you have a dual BIOs card you can load to one of the BIOs a third party BIOs and if something goes wrong then you switch to the other default BIOs.

    There you have all available official and unofficial BIOS Version.
    One thing is only not clear for me and maybe EVGA can explain...
    Why on TPU VGA BIOS Collection for K|NGP|N Edition is only one Official BIOS available (80.80.34.00.80), Normal BIOS.
    Where is LN2 BIOS (80.80.34.01.80)??? In my GPU-Z I see at the moment that version, switch is on LN2 position.
    All other models GTX780 Classified and GTX780Ti Classified have two version Normal (xx.00.xx) and LN2 (xx.01.xx) available there.
     
     
    Off course and one second official version is not available at all on TPU VGA BIOS Collection, (80.80.34.00.81)Normal and (80.80.34.01.81)LN2 .
    I have that version too, but that was not for my card and I keep just in case.

    OP, you should update your signature with latest specs to limit confusion from others.  Glad you got your issues worked out, now enjoy those cards!   Also, you probably should look over on overclock.net, specifically this post ---> http://www.overclock.net/t/1459307/official-evga-780-ti-classified-k-ngp-n-owners-club  should have all the info you need and then some.

    Haha.  My signature should read 2x Kingpins at the bottom.  At least it does for me :P  Thanks for the info guys.

    Just to make sure you know this, NEVER flash both BIOS's on your card. Always leave the stock BIOS alone (switch position 1) to make sure you warranty remains intact. As far as the overclocking position, or alternate BIOS, whatever you want to call it, you can do as you wish.
