"Isn't Asus a much large company than EVGA^^^^^"
 
Big company, small company doesnt matter, its how to treat your customers that matters
 
Yes, ASUS is much larger company and probably has alot more resources than EVGA but I ordered over 1 month ago. - You shouldnt be selling them if you dont have them!! - or state it's a pre-order with ?? week ETA.
 
Dont get me wrong I think their products are great (they perform well and look good) but communication from EVGA has been poor, even their own sales reps appologied to me for the delay and lack of information provided.
 
As i was typing i just got a phone call staying EVGA Hydros arrived and I have changed my order back to EVGA again!

Hi, which of the EVGA 980 Ti card variant have the most potential for overclocking? Classified or the Hybrid? Tired of waiting, was thinking of grabbing the Classified and get it custom water cooling solution & overclock to the max. Suggestions please. 

Get the Hybrid. It is on backorder on newegg.com.
As for overclocking, it will depend on what ASIC you get. Only Kingpin cards have confirmed ASIC. Everything else is up in the air. I know people with Hybrid who got 60 ASIC and I know people with Classified who got 60 ASIC.

On a custom loop, Classified FOR SURE. You'll get a decent OC with the Hybrid, though, not that much lower than the Classy on water.

Well they land in NZ on 5th of Aug as well but I doubt it would take 5 days to get to where I am. I am hoping for 7th of Aug at my work!!
Next Friday.. ahhhhh

Is classifieds only for people who want it under water? Or can I get away using the ACX cooler it comes with and still give it a hefty OC, like will it not get too hot?

I am a lil worried if I got 2 classyz and ran s good OC on it 24/7, especially since summer is coming up in Australia and my room gets particularly hot and there is no AC. Worried that the classyz will throttle with a good OC and under those conditions, Or am I wrong?

Classifieds are made for water. You'll get a decent factory OC that's above the advertised clock but terribly much more than that as the card will already be at its thermal limit. Be prepared for jet engine noises, however.

EDIT: Just saw your edit. The custom PCB of the Classies, especially with two of them, will produce substantial heat, and without AC, will actually throttle your card more than otherwise.

Received e-mail 18 minutes ago, but was eating dinner... the 980Ti Hybrid sold out again..
Guess U have to stop eatin!
