SO JEALOUS

So far I must say, it's impressive what this card can do on just the Normal BIOS.  Limited to ~425-435W but I'm getting pretty decent OC headroom so far.
 
Anyone else that's already gotten theirs: Have you notice the VRM/on board fan has a bit of a whine to it at higher speeds?  ONce I get up around 65-70% on it it's got a much different "Tone" vs most on-board fans I've dealt with before.  Nothing too horrible, just noticeable currently because I'm operating with the side of my case off for uh... other reasons lol

i put my que in on 12/29/20. Just curious on how long did you guys wait for the ones that got the card? I didn't read all 105 pages...LOL!

I signed up 24 minutes after the queue started on the day the queue reopened & got mine yesterday (slightly delayed due to shipping issues).  This queue is moving pretty fast tbh, but there's also less people in it.
 
I would imagine there's a lot less people that signed up AFTER release day for this one, so once it gets past 12/16 on registration for notify dates, it's going to move pretty fast.  Keep in mind from what we have seen so far, drop sizes are varying from about 30-100 units, estimated, so each time a drop hits, it's moving the queue a lot, as again, there's less people in it.
 
Good luck, so far I'm very happy with mine, still testing on the Normal BIOS & it's been nothing but impressive - the cooling in particular on the VRMs is WAAAAAAAAAAY better than regular Hybrid cards.

Mind elaborating on the vRAM/VRM cooling being better, are they liquid cooled as well or is it the copper that's cooling them down?  Also do you mind telling us the temps you are seeing. 

Seems like no drop.
I hope that Im wrong.

Load temps with a pretty hefty OC (running at 2175-2190MHz on the core & +1250MHz on the vRAM in PR) were as follows:
 

 
And Idle temps are just LUL:

Did you see any real fps improvements in Cyberpunk with the KingPin and the new monitor?

Haven't played the game at anything but stock yet, and the "stock" Kingpin clocks are basically the same as the undervolt/OC I was running on my 3090 FTW3 Hybrid (2040MHz @ 1000mV, vs the Kingpin runs that speed at stock).  Been doing benchmarking mostly, but I did play for over an hour with the stock settings.
My guess would be the extra 105-150MHz I can squeezy outta this thing compared to the regular card isn't going to net me too much in the way of FPS gains, maybe a few frames at most.
I'm actually testing right now at some weird settings, it's running at 2160-2190MHz at only 1.025v lol

I keep getting bumped back lol. dangit lol

Thanks for the temps those are really nice on the memory and power (VRM temps I'm assuming.)  GPU temps are decent in the mid 50's, waterblock with more than 360 rad (say 2x360+ rads) would probably bring them down to 40's, but really good for the high overclock on both gpu and mem!

So Jacob posted drops for KingPin today
good luck everyone

I am getting close and there are no power supplies at MSRP right now.  Have a 3080 I just unboxed from last week and have yet to run it.  LOL.  I never thought it would be harder to get a PSU than a GPU over the last few months...  May be a pass for me at this stage still!
 
Have the recent cards fixed the coil/pump noise issues some owners have reported?

I just looked through and didn't see anything in his tweets about a drop today - can you link it?

 My email was sent.  My order has been placed.

Congratulations on your new KPE!  Enjoy your benchmarking behemoth!  Thanks for being part of this tracking project (and for the PM; the kind words are really appreciated). 
 
I hope your KPE arrives swiftly and safely!

I'm afraid that it will be another straggler(s) day...

Yes.  But given that I wasn't expecting a KPE drop today, I'll take it.  Everything helps!
