That auto notify system emailed me 3 hours ago saying the 1080 Ti Kingpin was in stock. Was anyone able to snag one?

Yes they did. I just wish I could have timed it. I would guess maybe between 2 to 3 minutes tops. LOL.

A lot of people were waiting for these so it was expected that they would sell quickly.

Was away from my cell for a couple hours for the first time in weeks and BAM the notify comes through. I read the email two plus hours after it arrived, knew there was zero chance of getting in on this round.
For the love of cheese and rice, can anyone at EVGA give us an indication of next availability ?

Ye I actually signed up for the auto-notify about 20 mins before I got the email but I was out fishing so I missed it. How long does it usually take am I better off just going for a ftw3?

I got notified, managed to put one into my basket.., but couldn't go any further as it said "Country" USA, Canada or Mexico..., that was it.
NO CHANCE for international buyers. HUH. What is the point of having an Auto notify notice if we don't have ANY chance of buying it. Surely a company as big as EVGA could organise to sell them internationally.
Really really disappointed that I missed out because of postage.

I am sorry for that! Our US website only sells to USA, Canada and Mexico directly. We do hope to make these available in other regions as soon as possible.
Please keep in mind these were just released!

Seems pointless to me to buy a Kingpin for this generation. Both my EVGA FE cards hit 2050 24/7. They go even higher for benchmarks and bursts. Given the fact that Switchtech is the only one making a waterblock for these, the FTW3 is a better choice. Really only the EVBOT and LN2 support makes the KINGPING a better buy. On air they all suck and won't get past 2050.
I don't blame EVGA for trying, but NVIDIA really locked this series down making it pointless to get anything over a reference if you are watercooling it.

Not sure if that's accurate, but I'm not water cooling anyway.

Again managed to get on to my basket.., again no international sales. "Really"??
Why bother notifying us if we cant get one.., or at LEAST have a sign saying USA sales only.
Total bummer.

Capt. Kangaroo, you'll want to sign up for the auto notify in your region at https://au.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=11G-P4-6798-KR rather than the US site.
I "would", if it was available?? When you click on the "auto-notify" notice.., all that comes up is a list of PC cases, fans and Laptops. I even rang around the dealers and got treated like an idiot.., that didn't know what I was talking about.  Pretty frustrating.., even asking about the FTW3 Hybrid, got told there was no such thing. Grrrrrrrrrrr.  We don't stand much of a chance getting anything of quality here in Australia till some of these supplies change their attitude..., this is what we have at this abhorrent price (current price for a FTW3 between $1200 & $1460 plus postage) and you will buy this because that's what we have mentality. I swear if I won lotto I would start a PC shop focusing on new products and customer service, 2 things that seem to be sorely lacking here...., one Powerball....,$$$$$  It has got to the stage now that I am probably going to leave it altogether and buy a 2080 next year when I go to Switzerland.., shame. I really can't understand how a company as big as EVGA doesn't have international shipping in this day and age. Cheers
