Guys, it is not for sale yet. That is all. This is how they integrated their inventory, sales, logistic, digital storefront, and forum together. We like to think EVGA is a big company. They do good business, but they do not employ 1000s of people...They employ a few hundred. Let's let them spend their effort on design, QA, and CS.

Will these Z790 motherboards ever show up on EVGA Europe store?
I'd guess this is what they are putting up for now for all of us. If the release were earlier in the year (not the holidays) I'd say the EU page would be up in a week or two. If they are releasing them before Christmas (which isn't looking likely (the logistics could go bad)), it will go up in EU. I'd expect the EU pages up after Christmas, probably after New Year.
I've been using EVGA for almost two decades now and I think I may understand EVGA (a little (they still surprise me frequently)). The13900 KS (the binned K) should be out 1stQ. Given the recent struggles with supply, I 'feel' EVGA wants to release the boards when that hits the market, because of EVGA's core value, "Components designed for and in support of gamers and computer enthusiasts without compromise." They want you to buy their gear and it be the best you can get at a price that makes you love it even more, but they want you to complete your build with the best components, because it makes them look great, and you failing to complete makes their skin crawl and literally furious at industry partners. They want you to get the KS with these boards (or whatever CPU you want). On the topic of GPUs, everyone at EVGA is still salty af ...What Jensen is doing with supplying partners and induced scarcity...these are NOT EVGA core values. The salt is real, and actually worse today then in September, because of EVGA wanting us to have access to acquire parts.
Edit: learned I was wrong, which is fine, I can live with being wrong, but sadly I now don't think the Kingpin and Classified Z790s (being sold in NA) will be sold in EU.
I see people bought them in EU via ebay. There is another way. There are Escrow Discord channels set up to facilitate low fee/no fee p2p sales. Ebay doesn't deserve the markup.
