Thats a super impressive clock speed and average!!!!
I have a few questions if you dont mind. Monitoring such a small amount of voltage worries me that I wouldnt know exactly if the card is using to much power even with my powerbar reading. Could anything get damaged using this bios even if the temps were under control? Do you use any of the voltage slider in afterburner?
Even if the card will have warranty using this I still dont think im knowledge enough yet to use it. Any useful links for me to read up on would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again for all the info.

The voltage readings don't go above 1.1V, which is stock. I've been using the XC3 VBIOS for benchmarking for over a month, and have used it for a daily driver for a week straight. I waited to make it a daily driver due to the increased heat that my hybrid kit keeps down at 64C instead of 78C.

The voltage slider doesn't really do anything other than let the card use "up to" 1.1V., which is stock.

No other links for it because this is a user found "fix" for whatever hardware / balancing problem that many EVGA 3090 FTW3 cards have that power limit them even as low as 390W on a 500W VBIOS.

Quick recap of what i have seen, XC3 Bios on my FTW3 Ultra is a current fix? 

No? It's a power limit fix, not current limit fix from what I've seen. Unless you make that reference to point out that voltage is also not stepped down so heavily.

Thanks thats good to know. I ordered the hybrid cooler less than 48hours ago and apparently it arrives today. Did you did any extra thermal pads or anything with the cooler install?
Im going to connect the fans to my fan controller like you mentioned. 
Ill report back back onces its up and running.

The only thing that I changed is that I didn't use the pre-applied TIM on the cold plate. I replaced it with Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut because I wanted a thick coating to be sure of good coverage.

Just be careful after you take off the plastic shields from the putty/pads. They can get stuck on other things if you aren't careful, and can be partially stripped off or indented/deformed.

The 1kW bios works fine on Strix 3090 also, in case no one reported it yet. Though it is now voltage or load limited only, never power limited.

You need to make 100% completely perfectly sure that you have absolutely NO problems with misplaced thermal pads or GPU cold plate contact with that bios.  I don't think people take this seriously enough.  With all thermal protections disabled, you're at the mercy of the hardwired Thermal Trip (this is 125C on an intel CPU) safety net preventing your GPU from frying if something overheats.  And that will do nothing if your GDDR6X overheats or VRM's overheat!

  The 1000w bios wont work fine on any card unless you are on ln2 or in Space, the only thing it will do its adding stress on ur chip for 0 performance increase and even lost of performance and this also with a strix platted gold with diamond on it. So funny :)

 This can help some of you for install the hybrid cooling :

Thanks brother, I see there that guy had to flash to the New PX1 to the pump to work? As I told you before I'm using XC3 Ultra BIOS and I want to stick with it, any version of PX1 above 1.1.1 will try to flash the firmware and then brick my card like it happened last time. How did you manage to keep the XC3 BIOS and what version of PX1 are you using?

Cheers, Sergio!

Would be a nice Xmas present if EVGA comes with a New XOC 500W BIOS that works

 In 2 days :)

So, this has probably been asked, but where do I get the Kingpin OC BIOS from? I only see the XOC and FTW3 bios here.
