I have a bit of a qiestion for EVGA- is it possible to buy the Kingpin 3090 withput a cooler? It seems like a waste of material considering im mostly going to throw it into a custom loop with option for a watercooler to plug in.

any word on if there will be pre orders yet? or if they will be at microcenter on launch day?

Agreed, there really needs to be a GPU without any cooler at a lower price purchasing option for those of us who are putting them under water blocks. Not only is it wasteful, but some of the savings could be passed onto us.

No, they likely will have a block available for the KP though.

If you are looking for a budget card then the Kingpin isnt the one to be looking at. They have been selling cards with blocks on them out of the box for years. If you think a company is going to sell you a GPU with no cooling then you are mistaken. Thats a liability issue and not to mention nVidia would likely shoot that down with a quickness since they approve all cards that go to market with their chips.

So did I miss something? Are the FTW3 and the FTW3 Ultra coming out on the launch date? Cause if so hells yeah... Gimme that Ultra Bruh🤑😎




They're just going to be clocked higher, not better binned by the way. Keep in mind.

 Hi my friends ,  
 Sorry to ask it again , but my English is not that good and I want to be sure before buy any of this cards. 
I read many messages before that the size of the XC3 3080 rtx and 3090 rtx will be the same . Thats true ?  I have a small form factor case and I want to know if any of the 3090 models will fit ,or I need to buy the 3080 .

Thanks !

I was under impression all 3090s are a tad larger. I dont know for sure.

As for the kingpin card cooler thing then i have a question for current owners of one- is it hard to take off the hybrid cooler? My last card I put anything custom on was not hybrid

EVGATech_LeeM said this in an earlier post:
 
XC3 cards will all be 2.2 slots.  Length is 11.23in. - 285.7mm / Height is 4.38in. - 111.15mm

Which cards are going to be available through Step-Up?


This question has already been answered: 


The question has not been answered at all... I've read through the entire thread and all you guys say is that you don't know and that we need to wait...

Nvidia doesn't allow pre-orders. I think that availability at stores is up to the stores themselves to advertise. Unfortunately, there is also an NDA in place, so I don't think most stores have information and the little information they have they're not allowed to share.
 
Still waiting to figure out what the FE price is in Canada, nevermind what I can expect from EVGA or my local stores. zzzz

Their cost on the cooler is probably only $50USD haha

QQ - and sorry again if it's been asked - when can we expect the pre-blocked Hydro 3090 after the official launch of the 3090? Would it be better to wait or just get a standard 3090+EK waterblock?

We don't have release dates for either EK blocks that would work on EVGA cards, or the HC version of the 3090.
So you're going to have to take a guess, unless we get more info before launch day :-)

Haha fair. I see EK are advertising their new blocks albeit, as you say, without a release date. I may go ref 3090 and run it aircooled until I can block it and add to my loop. I currently have 2xEVGA 2080Tis under water currently. Silly me :)

Yeah EK will definitely release stuff.
One of the thing that's still a bit unclear (at least with the info that I have, maybe I'm missing something) is that while historically the XC3 design was a reference design, things are a bit different this time around.
NVidia is not pushing a reference design, they have their own custom.
My understanding is that it's then to the manufacturers to "agree" among themselves what the "reference" design looks like.
And we technically don't know for a fact that the XC3 PCB fits that definition.
 
I decided to spend money on something else so I might just skip this launch.
But yeah that was my path forward too. Buy whatever GPU I could get my hand on (either FE 3090 or FTW3) and wait for a block to be available, and run it air-cooled until a block was available.

I read that yes. Reference doesn't mean the same as it did historically. We agree on running it aircooled then :)

Hopefully the new releases will be available via the step-up program, if not I'll be disappointed.

If you think a company is going to sell you a GPU with no cooling then you are mistaken. Thats a liability issue and not to mention nVidia would likely shoot that down with a quickness since they approve all cards that go to market with their chips. 



How is that any different from a CPU being sold without a cooler, which happens every day? For that matter, how is that any different from a GPU being sold with a waterblock....which arrives with nothing but air inside?

I have a 2080ti ftw3 ultra. Debating on snagging the 3080 ftw3 or FE. Any opinions? Should I wait it out?

What kind of Monitor are you using ?
 
I like to see the third party benchmarks

The main difference is that for any (recent) CPU/MB combo out there, there are _a lot_ of 3rd party coolers. And good ones.

That's just not the case for GPU.
Like take a 2080 ti FTW3. If you don't want to watercool it.
Good luck for finding a good GPU air cooler (yes EVGA sells an hybrid conversion kit, but even them are not confident it would work with just a bare PCB and nothing else).

If I was in your shoes, and I didn't care about getting an FE cooler designed GPU, I would just hold onto the 2080ti for now since it is still perfectly 1440p capable. Then you may benefit from waiting if nvidia does release a 20gb 3080 in the semi-near future that you can snag without having to sell the 10gb 3080 if you had decided to buy from the first batch.
