I have a 3999 and am 5 seconds away from the 3989 in the queue.
 
Will the SLI NVLink connectors line up between these 2 cards with both installed in a motherboard (not using risers)?
 
Thanks!

    Yes same.


    While the NVlink connector itself may be the same, they do not line up at all, and you made a mistake with this. Risers will absolutely be required between a Kingpin and an FTW3 card.

    Sorry misread the post, thought he was referencing KP HC and HYBRID. Sorry they are different.
