Are they possible considering skipping 1080 and go for Titan X Ultimate and 1080 TI with hydro copper? I don't know how they have done with previous boards.

Just got my MSI Seahawk EK yesterday. Although it lacks fittings, it does come with EK EcoTherm TIM which I thought was a nice, but odd touch.

EVGA needs to cut the bs and stop ®SOON nonsense. We want an ETA window and we want it now. JG Wentworth asfuk

Because they are obviously having issues with the water block manufacturer this time around. It is obvious since they have not even told us WHO it is. The card is bios voltage locked per nVidia, there is no magic to be had until custom bios is a thing. 8+6 vs 8+8 isn't a big deal unless you are doing ln2 and then you probably have custom power delivery anyways.

MSI EK X is available on NewEgg right now. 
One possibility is you are right and EVGA is having issues with manufacturer and not some breakthrough.
Also possible that they will release a superior card to MSI EK X.
Looking at their Front Page:
+Hardware Breaks World Record
 
Some are saying that card is bios voltage locked -
but how would you explain K|NGP|N hitting 2,594MHz?
 Cooled by liquid nitrogen so not something you can sustain in real world.

Im waiting to upgrade my loop from my old 580.  I cant play DOOM or a The division already, pretty much every new game out from now on.  I wish we had an eta, i might just buy an ftw and put a block on it but i already have the EVGA x99 FTW MB

Well, i've been trying to get a Sea Hawk for the past two weeks through Newegg and keep missing them when stock comes in. 
And I couldn't be happier, because of this....

The block is very pretty. The backplate is hideous :(

I just hope some news comes out soon on these. I know MSI has there version but I'm pretty loyal to EVGA. I just can't bother with the hybrid stuff I'm too used to water cooling all the way.

I will be preordering the msi seahawk ek and getting an HTC Vive for new VR room after my paycheck next week.  If EVGA would at least announce something i would like to hold out bc i already have the evga x99 ftw, and i am really considering that DG-8 case.
