I leave the fans at 80% while playing or benchmarking and temps are around 50-53°C. I'm thinking of changing the stock fans of my Kingpin for one this models:

Arctic Bionix p12. 2,75 mm H2O (@ 2100 RPM). 12€.

Be quiet! Silent Wings high speed 3.37mm/h2o (@ 2200rpm). 20€.

Noctuas industrial 3000rpm are amazing specs but the sound in not sure if it will be too much.

Which ones do you recommend? Will I notice much difference with the stock ones?

I'd definitely go with the be quiet! SilentWings3 120mm PWM high-speed fans (I think the model # is BL070). I've been using their fans for a few years at least now - great radiator fans with a good balance of performance and noise, and very high quality.

Isn't the LN2 vbios...just for LN2 cooling? What am I missing here?

Hi everyone, I received my 3090 Kingpin hybrid a couple of weeks ago and have been having a really weird issue. Sometimes after a random cold start the AIO pump decides to not start. I noticed this first time when I shut down my computer to work on something and then started it back up. As soon as my computer booted up in windows, the hybrid fan as well as the GPU temp controlled radiator fans went crazy followed by an awful "GPU OVERHEAT" message. I checked x1 precision and the GPU temp was on 90°C and rising. I was on the LN2 bios which apparently doesn't have safeguards so I panicked and turned off the PSU.

After some more panicking, sweating and uninstalling and reinstalling the video card it suddenly started working.

Fast forward to today and I decided on updating my BIOS. Same ordeal again. This is ridiculous. Any tips?

Edit: After trying all sorts of things I gave up, let the card sit for an hour. Plugged everything in and the pump started working again. The easiest way to tell if the pump is working is the hoses start vibrating. Still need to find a permanent solution because this is annoying.

The LN2 520W BIOS can be used every day, it's not "fully unlocked" like the 1000W BIOS Is that voids your warranty - the 520W still has safeguards to prevent damage etc.
 
I think his issue is either the pump plug in under the fan shroud is lose or his pump is going bad.  There's no reason the card should be behaving that way where sometimes the pump is just like "Nah I'm good" on start up.

Thank you for the info.

I'm having around 50°C gaming with the stock fans at 80%. Noise is ok.

Using a curve of 1.066v 2200mhz aprox depending on the game.

Will the upgrade fan (Noctua 3000rpm or Silent Wings 3 hp) reduce much the temps? Maybe the radiator can't do better even with a better fan.

I have the o11 xl and recently swapped so my kingpin is top exhaust as push pull and cpu side intake as push pull. I feel like my temperatures are high, around 63c gpu die in time spy extreme looping with no oc. It will read 59 to 60c in x1.
Load is about 480w.

I have 2x 140mm intakes and a 120mm exhaust. I've got them with pretty aggressive profiles to keep fresh air flowing.

When I had my kingpin as side exhaust or intake it would hit 75c, the exhaust was getting trapped by rear side panel.

How are others doing in this case? My ambient is around 26c. I see some locking their voltages and wonder if I should try that, as mine will fluctuate up to 1.2v.

I am using l2n bios, never touched dip switches or classified tools.

What CPU are you running?  Also, with 26C ambient (that's pretty warm), I'd say 59-60C is warm, but not "hot".  With push/pull fans, in a high airflow environment in my case, and 70F (~21C) ambient, my card peaks at the 49-51C on the GPU readout range (few degrees higher on the Die temp), and that's with all the extra cooling modifications I've done with the extra thermal pads, heatsinks, etc, which has improved even the core/die temps slightly. 
So it sounds like your temps are within range of what they should be.
Keep in mind "GPU voltage", NVVDD & MSVDD are all GPU voltages, and they're all different.  What you see as GPU voltage is what you should be comparing numbers with others on if we're talking about a Voltage Frequency Curve in Afterburner.
Note that running an undervolt/OC would very likely help quite a bit with your temps if you're gonna go kind of low on the voltage side. I.E. running something like 2100MHz @ 1025mV (which should work for most people as that's pretty conservative on the clocks & undervolting side) should help with temps, power draw, & still give you better than stock performance numbers.

Does anyone know anything new about the waterblock?

I finally had some time to work on installing the KingPin. As I have a custom loop for my CPU I had to take everything apart.  I will state that based on me playing around with fitment in a standard Lian Li 011 Dynamic, the radiator does not work in the side compartment area.  While it "fits", it puts a ton of stress on the hoses and the PCIE slot and I didn't care for it.  I ended up putting it up in the top and replumbing everything.  It's a super tight fit with a D5 given the power plugs are on the end of the card vs. the side.
 
When I swapped fans, I noticed that my radiator fins had a lot of damage.  Is that normal for this product?  The stock fans are clearly junk as people have mentioned.  The radiator also seems to be of fairly low quality (at least compared to the EKWB, Alphacool, and Watercool radiator I use in my rigs).  Not happy to see how thin it is with bent fins!
