Wow no news or posts in 3 weeks!

I'm hoping that they have at least a few more cards in the works, it was the holidays after all and that has to have slowed down shipping...

I wonder if they are getting ready to switch the KP to the 3090 Ti/Super.

I was wondering that too. After all, it would be a little odd if your "Kingpin" product is outperformed by your more mainstream product.  I'm wondering if they will even bother with a 3090TI Kingpin, by the time it's shipped, it will have a very limited lifespan given the 4000 series will probably be out late 3rd quarter 2022.
 
I hope, if they do ship a 3090Ti Kingpin, that they will transfer the existing queue. After such a long wait it would be completely unfair to make the current queue members have to "join" again for the updated product.

Agree on the shelf life and timing.  There is no truly fair way to do it.  For example, will everyone who got a 30xx be penalized by the two card per household rule as pertains to the 3090 TI/Super?
 
A new queue for a new card series seems like the least unfair way to do it.

I was wondering this as well.  Hoping for a smidge of info soon though.

Dead or not, 3090 Ti or not I think I'm pulling myself out of the queue. I have a decision to make next week and I think I know what it's going to be and if I do what I expect I'm going to do then I'm out of the running for the 3090 KP Hybrid.
 
I felt like I was potentially a week or two away a few months ago. Then movement completely died.
 
Now 40 series has been announced and I'm not going to buy a 30 series KP less than a year from the launch of 40 series.

I haven't heard anything official about the 40 series. I do find it strange that the 3080 and 3090 hybrids are dropping, but only crickets on the KPE front. Something feels off about that.

Well, 40 series isn't official official but there are leaks that it will launch Q3 2022.

There was plenty of speculation that the 30 series Tis were going to launch in January 2021.  They launched in June 2021.  I wouldn't hold your breath re the 40 series...based on what you are hearing now....

I mean that's not the reason I'm not going to buy the KP. It's just one thing to consider. I've been holding onto the money to purchase and I'm not going to be holding onto it anymore because I'm going to do something entirely different with that money. 

Got it. Enjoy your mystery purchase.

I really believe that both queues are dead.

If that is the case, then...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKpX-5jQjQ0&t=7s
 

Maybe for these SKUs, but not for the others lol

Just facing reality.  KPE Hybrid last drop date, late October, KPE HC last drop date, mid August.  Last tweet from Jacob that I know of was in mid October and he tweeted that these are in limited qty and there are no ETAs for these SKUs.

Per Jacob, more of 24G-P5-3998-KR are on the way but no ETA, so thats interesting news.

That’s exactly what he said back in October here:

I'm loving the optimism, it's giving me tons of false hope!

Is there anything I can do to get my Kingpin notification to be active again?

I just checked under my notify section to see the time and the status of my hydro copper is False and not active.

I think it's because I have 2 other ones as active.

I definitely don't want the others.

Unfortunately not, the answer is on the notify page in the top red box. Sorry.
