Nice, looks impressive looking, and sets a new record for pricing, though that's not a surprise really. A bit out of my price range, and not really my time to upgrade, but it looks great.

I believe some, perhaps all of the SR-* series motherboards were more expensive, especially so if you account for inflation.

The SR-3 was super expensive at $2k but the original SR-2 was $579 when it was new which is about 730-750 dollars now.  It was actually not that badly priced, only like $100 more than the single socket and the same as the black edition asus board lol.

Really cool and all, but the dual fans to push airflow over the VRM's is concerning to me, especially since they pull from the back side of the case into the system. It looks like any hot air expelled out of the back of the case would just get sucked back into the case by those two fans...
 
Not to mention, in my experience, small fans tend to be pretty noisy, and if they aren't they move very very little air. 

You can unplug those fans if you want to. It’s got a plug on the board, I was looking at it as I was installing it earlier

   How does EVGA score work when on elite member list for Z690 Kingpin?

the queue thread has someone tracking positions (self reported) and i believe also noting the lowest evga score to receive a notify email. as for how they calculate movement in the ordering based on score? i think it's as simple as...
 
if they're sending 10 notifies and the list has 20 people, anyone outside of the top 10 moves up in the list before anyone with a lower evga score gets a notify. once the reshuffle is finished, the new top 10 get notifies.
