Should I be able to get in the queue and secure a KPE...no, sadly not.  That stuff frightens and confuses me.  My hat is off to the folks that work with it though...great fun to go along with them on their benchmarking ride.

Just took myself off the auto-queue in hopes for a hydro copper kingpin. Watch them only sell the block as a separate kit lmao.

Can a person put themselves back on auto que? You will not see a KP Hydrocopper anytime soon or ever. They will come out with just the Hydrocopper for about 250-300usd plus tax.

Wait so no preinstalled hc kingpins? Ever?

The PCB is different for the KPE, which means the water block also has to be specifically designed for it, tested, and then manufactured. The last official update (almost a month ago) was "Mid December" to see a KPE HC, but with all the other delays, it may be some time.

I know the pcb is different. I was asking if they’ll sell the kingpin with a block preinstalled. Which the dude I quoted apparently is saying they won’t

The Hydrocopper block, if it’s released, shouldn’t be much more expensive than say a FTW3 hydrocopper block. Since the OLED is on the backplate this time, the waterblock will not need to ship with an OLED. That is what drove up the cost of the 2080ti KPE Hydrocopper block.

jacob has given multiple vague answers about the 3090 KP HC which to me means "we have no idea". Gauging how many of us want to put this in a custom loop is probably fairly difficult when your supply is already stretched as thin as possible. It might also be tough for them to come up with the quantity to justify another full card SKU. just my 2cents

If they plan on selling a stand alone block, I would assume they would and could sell one with the card on it and or vice versa. I'm sure it will come out eventually. Of course, they would make more money selling the Hybrid only and then the block only at a later date. Probably piss a lot of people off if they did that after showing it off. 
Too bad they did not team up with a block MFG similar to what ASUS and EK did. I thought that was pretty cool. I'm sure that would have sped up the process. 

How do you sign up for the notify I can't :(

If I recall correctly, I think the blocks earlier in their history were from EK (900 series?). But I think around 10 series they started pushing their own as the official HC blocks. Could be wrong on that one.

But for 20 series KPE, they never released an official HC. You had to buy the hybrid and then buy the block (which was pricey since there was an OLED on the block).
