Can we not buy the extended warranty for this card? Been trying over 20 times now with no luck

Are you the original owner? Did you upload your receipt? Might be one of those issues.
 


Yes and yes. No need to upload receipt I bought it direct from EVGA

Yep something must be broken, won’t even take me to the credit card page now


Sometimes it’s the browser and or their system. It took a couple of tries for me. Make sure you’re checking off the button, again, it took a couple of tries.

What are you running to generate those temps just out of curiosity? Games, benchmark?

 
Mining ETH which is very memory intensive.  It is running in the background anytime I'm not gaming.  It does not interfere with regular work like web browsing, email, etc.  Right now I'm earning just under $10/day, so that adds up over the long run.


If you don't mind me asking, what are your settings for mem/clock/power when mining in the background for your Kingpin 3090?

I made it all fit. lol  And yes both sides close normally & do not touch the sideways 280mm radiator.
 
I dunno if anyone else noticed, but the stock radiator fans are actually straight trash.  Gaps between the fan blades are huge which means their static pressure is very likely utter garbage.  Swapped to EK Vardars while doing this rearrange, gonna be gaming shortly, we'll see how the temps are...

Wow that's a HUMONGOUS case! And I thought the Lian-Li O-11 was big. Which case is that?
 
Keep us posted on the difference in temps after the fan swap. I'm planning to swap the stock Kingin fans with the Lian-Li SL120

I swapped the stock fans to the LL SL120 and the temps are great. Everyone changes out fans to match their case or to whatever they like. Makes sense for EVGA to not even bother dumping money into fans that they know are going to be removed. Especially when it comes to a gpu that most are going to add a water block.

Very nice! I've been wondering about the stock Kingpin fans but couldn't seem to find a model number anywhere to lookup the CFM and static pressure ratings. I'm was thinking about running a push-pull configuration with the stock fans to push and Corsair QL120s to pull. I might start looking into different fans to push.

Thermaltake View 91 - and yes it is gigantic (and expensive).  With all the glass on (my front panel glass sheered off in shipping, which was actually nice as I was planning on removing it anyway to unrestrict the front airflow) it weighs about 70lbs, she's a bit of a heffer.  
I typically only buy a new case once in a blue moon, so like when I buy PSUs, I tend to go all out/go for the one I really like the looks/long term viability of.  This thing has a massive amount of liquid cooling support (it can actually fit a radiator in the front area there, I just took the brackets out that would hold it).
Example of someone else's tricked out LC setup in it:

 
Right now I'm doing OC testing going for personal records so temps are kinda out the window... but in the run I just finished, at +150 core, it only got up to 50C in Port Royal - so the fans are definitely helping, previously with the stock fans I was seeing 54-55C at these settings.
