Definitely looking forward to getting a Z690 Classified when they are available.
I'm not on the queue and I have no idea how queue 3.0 works,
but I'm still waiting on a queue product from early 2021 (3060 Ti FTW3 KL) 
Already got ordered the 3090 SLI Bridge so I'll look forward to the day I can run those beasts in SLI on a Z690 Classy.

Did anyone actually end up buying one? I've been checking for 3 weeks now and its always out of stock even though I'm logged in and part of the vip program whats going on?

There are several Classified model boards out in the wild now. If you check here, you can see the status of those who've queued for it and received it (at least, those who've let us know via that thread). They turned the notify button off, which means they had enough people queued up to meet all of the supply they think they can keep up with in the near-term. I suspect if they get some more in the pipeline or catch up, they'll turn the button back on. This is another product that has not yet had an "in stock" button go live on the website. Only the "notify" button was there for the first few days before being turned off. Several people got their email to order on the first week though.

Oh god, was that the z690 kingpin? THATS the one I'm looking forward to actually!

heheh define soon? I remember those party poopers announced beginning of December, then end of december, then sometime in January and then no more updates... such a bummer~ =(

The z690 dark kingpin has been available on the Taiwan website

if I can snag this , I can rationalize a lg1700 upgrade. Come on evga usa!

what time do they usually post new products?

Most often it is 9AM PT ( at least ~75% of the time). sometimes 6AM PT, sometimes a little later than 9AM, but it is usually 9am. 

no drop yet... if only I had a bot to do this work for me.......

yep, the customer rep i chatted with a few months back said they restock products on their website around these times:
 
6am, 9am, noon (all pacific)
 
good luck! i am guessing we'll see it this week. fingers crossed!

I think some of their products have actually dropped at 0800 PST, but still I would recommend checking once an hour in the morning if you can.  I had to navigate a couple hundred miles around some severe turbulence over the Mid Atlantic on the Z690 classified launch day, so I landed an hour later than I had planned and ended up in queue almost an hour after they dropped.  By the time I got the jet to the next stop I already had an email to order one in my inbox with a board waiting for me.  Now I am Elite with a decently high score, but as long as you get the order in on the morning of launch I would expect you to receive an email within a couple of days.  So, if you have the ability, check once an hour in the morning on your phone.  If you don't, don't get too discouraged because the boards don't seem to be scalped as much as the cards have been.

Welp.  No kingpin this week.  bummer

There were z690 classifieds available this morning but looks sold out now. There are some z590s right now. Very tempting

That's pretty interesting, I did an auto notify for a classified Z690 on January 19th AM and still haven't recieved an email to get one.

you have me doubting myself now, I completely forgot about the queue.
