Note: This kit is exclusive to NVIDIA Reference PCB/Air cooling 1080/1070 cards.
 
It is not designed for the FTW custom PCB. The FTW Hybrid Kit is pending release by EVGA.

Edit by Jedi:  Fixed link to product page.

hmmm was to happy ... thought it's for FTW PCB also :(.
 
hope the FTW hybrid kit comes out soon :S

Because of the larger PCB of the FTW model, this Hybrid kit will not fit. We will keep you posted about watercooling options for non-reference models in the future.

Yes i understand, i only bought FTW because every body said on forums that FTW hybrid kit is coming out soon. i don't mind waiting as long as it will arrive eventually :)

Updated op with fan & radiator info.

Are these for sale yet or are they just sold out atm?

Thanks for this information. Do you know if this is the same fan which are used for the 980TI?
 

We need an EVGA Tech to answer your question.

thanks!
I want to put on my 1080 SC
The shroud is included? 

Yes Sir!

this what i meant... (This looks like a custom PCB cooler and different then the FE one. bigger shroud + bigger fan on the VRM)
will wait for this kit as long as needed. :)

Not to mention the most obvious thing. It has 2 8 pin connectors.

Thank you for the photos, as I can't find the manual listed on the EVGA site yet. Is the backplate reinstalled? I don't see that listed in the manual.

Good catch!  I didn't notice that. I hope that the plate can be reinstalled.
 
It'd be great if an EVGA Tech would respond on this.

The 980ti hybrid kit used the reference fan. Looks like this one comes with a replacement fan. I'll know next week when my kit gets here

 
Yes, it comes with fan, as seen in the pictures.

It is available on Amazon but not in stock, so I went ahead and ordered one for my EVGA GTX 1080 SC. I sure hope the backplate can be reinstalled, so thanks for sending the PM!

Thanks, Udo_G!  
 
EVGA Tech RayH responded.  From what he has seen, yes, reinstall.  Since that info was omitted from the install manual, he will be contacting the product guy/gal for a better detailed response.   I hope to get an additional picture loaded to cover the reinstall (likely just the reverse of step 1).
 
Update:  
 
The detailed response provided is that the Hybrid kit does work with those compatible 10 Series cards that come with a pre-installed backplate.

Well, I have received my Hybrid kit and installed it with tremendous results:
 
I went cheap on the stock MSI Aero 1070 blower at a mere £380; just wanting an interim card for next ~18 months.
I can't speak to the effectiveness of a Founder's edition blower performance, but this MSI design is very poor - it idles quietly enough, but the fan profile needs ramping right up the wazoo under load; and it still hits high 80°'s causing throttling.
 
*I need to point out that my case has very poor fan throughput (a low end Corsair 100r silent - 2×120mm intake/outtake fans on a triple speed header selector). This is why I've always stuck with blower cards; so the high GPU heat is better exhausted on long gaming sessions.
 
There's no backplate to the MSI Aero, and aside from a slightly different design steel end plate, everything attaches as intended. I was initially unable to install the radiator in my case because of the previously mentioned fan speed switch mounted at the back above the fan mount. doh! There's room for the fan - but the rad is somewhat taller. Removed switch and no problem. I did attach the EVGA fan to this switch (rather than direct through card) so I can run at lower revs. This makes practically inaudible.
 
Now, even with a fairly modest Overclock:

 
I'm seeing mid 30°'s idle and hovering just over 60° under 100% load.
 
So, is dropping an extra £120 on an (admittedly) low-end card some kind of tits-on-a-boar affair? Not at all!
On first power up I did think I'd made a terrible mistake... I was getting a crazy vibration from the case - turned out to be the water pipes pressing on the side door! Zip-tying the pipes up to the card keeps them out of the way nicely.
Now my cheap as chips reference PCB can run as intended; with a decent amount of OC headroom (for an 8-pin board).
 
I can now explore No Man's Sky stress free @60hz & 3440×1440 and leave properly investing in the Pascal architecture until it's matured a little more...
 
TL;DR
EVGA Hybrib AIO cooler compatible with MSI Aero reference PCB card.
Happy days. :D

I would think it better to use the pre-applied paste. The one I have had the paste applied evenly all over the copper protrusion, and it is my understanding that it needs to cover the entire chip. The temperature reduction is fantastic, and it is soooo nice to have the heat blown outside the case, as the internal case temperature is very low now! You can use SpeedFan to control the speed of the radiator fan if you plug it into a motherboard fan header, even though it only has two wires. You won't see the rpm because it is DC controlled, but you will see the percentage. At least that is how it is on my computer. I have the fan at 20% at idle, and at 40C it starts to ramp up to the highest speed at 50% when under full load. I can't hear a thing at idle. 

After liquid cooling my EVGA GTX 1080 SC, I was able to get some very steady temps and overclocking. The attached image shows an MSI Afterburner graph after about 30 minutes of playing The Talos Principle, which I thought would communicate more than words.
