Back in stock at EVGA US store.
How about at amazon? I ordered on the 19th and now they're saying 2 months!
With that you will have to wait for Amazon to get them in Stock, I would be the same if your ordered one from NewEgg.
Back in stock was at the EVGA Store here on EVGA's Web Site that is.
Except newegg got them in stock on Wednesday.
What does NewEgg stock have to do with Amazon stock? Nothing as the same as Amazon stock has nothing to do with NewEgg Stock. You can cancel your order with Amazon and order one from NewEgg. But Egg is now out of stock so keep you Amazon order open. Remember that your are not charged on Amazon until your order ships and NewEgg charges before your item ships.

It means that stock is flowing. Regardless, I got my delivery estimate from Amazon, expected Wednesday.

Maybe I missed it while reading through the forums, and having mounted these on your X, do you know if a Titan X back plate still work with the kit? The 980 Hybrid comes with a back plate and it looks like the mount points match up between the two plates.
Thanks.
Sorry for the late reply. There is no backplate included in the 980 hybrid kit. My Titans have no backplates on them.

It's being reported all over, in every review that it has a backplate.

OMG, this card is EPIC! it does everything i thought it would but better. the temps are just mind boggling! my 780ti w\ ACX Cooler would idle around 40-43C and now that is the temp of the 980 Hybrid under FULL LOAD! it just amazes me how cool this thing runs. stock performance isn't much over the 780ti but i expected that, now lets see the overclocking capabilities! ^_^

What people with TITAN X say about Hybrid?
And their temps are much lower probably.

I ordered Apr. 6, and Amazon said it would be coming between May 7th and 20th. I was excited when I saw the auto notifications from EVGA and Newegg that these were in stock, so I contacted Amazon to see if mine would ship from them (otherwise I'd buy from somewhere else). On Apr. 27 they said the 980 Hybrids were there and it would be "5-10 days", but that they'd work to make it sooner. So by the 7th, at the latest, right? Nope, today I get an email saying the date's been changed to between May 21 and June 16. Oh, and of course, EVGA and Newegg are out of stock by now. I'm mad at Amazon, and all they had to say was a bunch of lies about how that's what it originally said on the item page when I ordered it, and that the information I got on the 27th was correct at the time. Like that helps.
So just saying. I wouldn't be so positive on Amazon having them "up soon", especially if you ordered after I did. This is the first time that Amazon's let me down like this with some critical information like this. I'm really mad at them, and frustrated since I don't have a spare card to put in my new build right now.
So now I'll have to wait, what, up to two months to get my machine going? If anyone knows where I can get one of these sooner (not double price on Ebay) I'd cancel my Amazon order immediately.
Did you get your shipment notification yet? Mine is arriving tomorrow.

Really kinda sad that nvidia didn't bother including a backplate with the Titan X. Considering such a premium offering at a premium price point. I know that it doesn't make much of a difference except perhaps add rigidity to the PCB and maybe 1C off temps, but if the reference 980 has such a nice looking back-plate, the same could have been done with the Titan X. Sure you can argue that you can always add one yourself but that's besides the point, Here's hoping the 980Ti or whatever it's called when its launched doesn't skimp out on what was made standard.

I placed an order on Amazon on the 27th of April. Got a notification a little while ago that they'll be shipping earlier then expected. May 11th in fact. I asked the CS whether 1 day option (prime member) would help expedite it even further. Got bumped up to 1 day free shipping and the 3x AIOs arrive on the 8th of May which happens to be a Friday. Very happy with Amazon customer service personally. Initially the order had something like May 21 to June 12 as the estimated ship date. So I'd check your orders page to see if there was an update made unless you cancelled your order.

A little off subject but here is a Back Plate for your Titan X. 100-BP-2999-B9 EVGA GTX TITAN X Backplate  But I am glad that my EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Hybrid Part Number: 04G-P4-1989-KR Graphics Cards Do Come with Back Plates.

Does the stand alone cooler option come with the back plate? My reference EVGA 980 SC doesn't have one.

What Part Number is your Superclocked Card? 04G-P4-2983-KR supports a backplate but not the AIO Cooler and the 04G-P4-1982-KR supports no backplate but supports the AIO Cooler. I have to ask but did you bother to look?  HYBRID Water Cooler (All in One) for GTX 980Part Number: 400-HY-H980-B1 And no it comes with No Back Plate.

I installed my Hybrid a few days ago my idle temps are amazing & load temps are amazing. I am a little annoyed about the radiator fan noise. My pc was virtually silent on idle before I installed my hybrid cooler. I have a fanless psu and a silent scythe cooler on my 4790k and an all ssd storage setup. I'm boosting to 1480 mhz (+203 mhz) and (+132mhz memory). Silence when idle is a very important goal for me. Quietness when gaming is the reason I went with the hybrid kit.
I tried the maxwell bios tweaker to disable the fan's totally on cool temps. this does of course disable the original gpu fan but not the pump / fan.
Could anyone suggest a course of action? Stopping the rad fan with my finger clearly shows it's the noise making culprit.
a) can I slow down the radiator fan?
b) can I disable the radiator fan on cool temps?
c) can I easily switch the radiator fan to something silent?
d) any other suggestions?
your help would be greatly appreciated
regards
damien.

a) Yes, with a Fan Controller. b) Yes and No, I gets HOT Real Fast without a Fan Running on the radiator. c) Yes, any 120mm fan will work. d) Have Fun with this Card and maybe review this Thread from the beginning.

Hi bcavnaugh
thanks for the reply.
I think I'll opt for a new fan.
this model looks good.
"
Corsair Air Series 120mm PWM Quiet Edition High Static Pressure Fan"
I am trying to decide if I should go for the PWM model or not.
I'm totally having fun with the card. The hybrid kit is an awesome mod. But I want to mod the mod now :)

Before you go and buy a new Fan read about fans that are for Radiators they are NOT the same as Case Fans. Fans that I use. http://koolance.com/fan-120x25mm-108cfm and http://koolance.com/fan-120x38mm-116cfm

Curious what o/c's are you guys getting? GTA5 seems more sensitive than any benchmark I've tried. I'm using push/pull 1850rpm GentleTyphoon fans, 100% fan speed (because of the VRMs), max voltage, (128%/80c/+80/+300) and I've had one crash even though the temp never goes over 45c. VRM FAQ here: http://www.evga.com/suppo...ewfaq.aspx?faqid=59555 GTA5 settings: 1920x1200 native with DSR at 2650x1600 (15%) MFAA nv cpl swap MSAA x2 FXAA TXAA This fills out all the VRAM this way. So bottom line is I'm not sure what's so good about this card. The clocks are the same as the Classified and it doesn't seem to overclock well, even with the temp being 1/2. So basically I could have the same thing with much less noise and hardware for an extra $50. Not very happy.

I received mine about a week ago. I installed it. I'm running stable @ 1504MHz. I never top 39ºC
I am extremely disappointed that I got absolutely no games bundled with this crazy expensive card, a first for EVGA and the last 4 EVGA cards I bought going back 12 years.

Keep us posted, you seem to be the first one to have an issue with your card. You did run the fan on the Radiator Correct? I have seen users ask if they can run this card without a fan. jptech

Then you might want to ask NVIDIA for a game code as they are the ones that are doing the codes so really you should be "extremely disappointed" with NVIDIA and not EVGA. You also could buy a second card to get your free game codes.

Yes alls i did was install the card, mount the rad and fan in a push config, plug the power supply in, boot the system. the first tthing i noticed was the fan on the radiator didnt even bother to try to spin. and yes i double checked all connections more than 3 times.

Curious what o/c's are you guys getting?
GTA5 seems more sensitive than any benchmark I've tried.
I'm using push/pull 1850rpm GentleTyphoon fans, 100% fan speed (because of the VRMs), max voltage, (128%/80c/+80/+300) and I've had one crash even though the temp never goes over 45c.
VRM FAQ here: http://www.evga.com/suppo...ewfaq.aspx?faqid=59555
GTA5 settings:
1920x1200 native with DSR at 2650x1600 (15%)
MFAA nv cpl swap
MSAA x2
FXAA
TXAA
This fills out all the VRAM this way.
So bottom line is I'm not sure what's so good about this card. The clocks are the same as the Classified and it doesn't seem to overclock well, even with the temp being 1/2. So basically I could have the same thing with much less noise and hardware for an extra $50. Not very happy.
With This: "Be aware when overclocking the GTX 980 Hybrid or a GTX 980 with the Hybrid upgrade kit, the stock blower fan is still used to cool the VRMs and memory on the card. The blower fan speed is based off of the temperature of the GPU, and as GPU temperatures with be far lower than with just the stock cooler, you may need to set a custom fan curve or manually increase the fan speed with PrecisionX to keep these parts of the card cool while overclocking. If you experience instability or artifacting while overclocking, try increasing the fan speed and see if that resolves the problem." I set my GPU Fan a 60% to 70% and with my case closed up I do not hear the Blower fans. For everyday use I have it set to 40%. For Folding or Crunching I set it to 70%. Now if my case is open and I have my face in the case yes I can hear the Blower fans. This card is worth it more than you want to think. As with my image posted above my back plate get warm but not Hot not that different then any of my GPUs on Water.
