 It looks like Optimus wasnt able to get one, so I dont think we will be seeing a WB from them anytime in the near future. 

Where did they say that?


PM.


I thought someone else was gonna send them their kingpin?


That would be great if they could get one. I would be willing to send mine to them, and offered but I got no answer on that. Perhaps they don't want the liability of handling someones property.

K|NGP|N installed and first Port Royal run complete (13,854; all stock settings out of the box). Could only post these two pics cuz EVGA limits this post to 500kb max total for all pics, lol. I had to do a lot of resizing just to get these two.  GL to everyone still waiting and grats to those who have received theirs! 


Let us know how it goes once you OC without extra thermals like an AC unit blowing on it... lol

I'm guessing you will get 14.7 to 14.8 highest on it with LN2 bios. My starting score was almost the same...

I already made my ebay auction ad. I'm going to.try the kingpin 3090 on the kingpin dark mobo z490 (putting it together with my son this afternoon). If nothing magical happens there, the auction is going up. I decided I'm not sticking around to see what happens with these as I did with the ftw3 ultra. I already picked up one strix 3090 and will just grab another as soon as I find a good local deal.

What were your baseline and top scores? I think I missed it

Nice, board. What memory are you going to run on it?

Im pretty sure they will have one.

Hard to tell exactly now. I didn't track it 100%. But it was around 13.7 to 13.8k stock in normal mode. My highest without anything extra blowing on it was 14.8k. 
 
Classified allowed me to raise my gpu OCs more, but the scores weren't changing at all. It needs more juice to go higher and actually put the rubber down on the road.
 
You can always look my profile up on 3DMark. I did a ton of runs. Then I was doing Asus runs with Asus bios and then asus with the evga ftw3 ultra XOC bios. I tried the Kingpin bios rom from online (TechSpot) on the Asus, but it was capped at 450w. I may nvflash a backup of the LN2 bios from my own card tonight and try it again.

I have dual-rank G.Skill Trident Z 4266MHz dimms and dual-rank Corsair Vengeance LPX 5000MHz dimms. Not sure the latter will even work, but prepared to see what I can pull off if it even boots... lol
 
If the corsairs don't work on the Dark, they will work on my x570 Godlike mobo. Not sure I will keep them though, considering the price...

Here is something interesting between different BIOSs for the 3090 GPUs:
 
Asus on Asus bios needs +120 (gpu) and +1300 (mem) to achieve a score of 14350, while the Asus with the EVGA XOC OC Bios needs +145 and +1300 to get a 14352.
 
Say what?!
 
So much for a "Basic Input Output System."   lol

"I have dual-rank G.Skill Trident Z 4266MHz dimms" Let me know how those work for you, I got the same kit but cant run my board yet.

As you know already I'm sure, it is the best option out there right now (unless these 5000mhz dimms work maybe lol). But, of course, the results won't be anywhere near as good as if I put either in my x570 5950x setup. I will let you know though.
