Can we please get a simple YES or NO, should we wait for hydro copper or just move on and get something else and a water block? Jacob it's been 5 months and not a single word on that, is this how EVGA treats their loyal customers now days? It gotten pretty ridicules... Not sure what else to say///

I bit the bullet bought a 1080FTW in spite of all the reported problems and an EK FTW waterblock.  Tested the card for 4 days BF4, Folding, Overwatch etc. absolutely no issues.  Slapped on the waterblock today (kept the stock backplate, not difficult) and cranked it up to +152 Gpu +150 Mem. (130% power target) resulting in 2151 @ 42 deg. c.  As usual the quality of the EK block is great, however the stock cooler had a few scratches on the GPU contact surface I haven't seen that before.

Whelp... I finally did the same.  I followed your lead and I just bought the 1080FTW and an EK FTW waterblock and nickel backplate as well.  After 4 months of waiting, I finally gave up since there have been zero updates on a card that we hardly believe even exists at this point.  Newegg will be shipping my FTW card out today to hopefully be received by the weekend, and then Performance-PC's is shipping my waterblock to be here late next week (side note: Why does Performance-PC not have better shipping options to California... come on with that $18 minimum shipping cost). 
 
I hope I can see similar results as you did once everything is connected to the loop.  Here's to a free copy of Gears of War 4 too

I managed to get it to 2164 while folding however I had to crank up the GPU overclock a LOT!  I don't remember the actual offset but I was surprised it didn't crash.  The temperature went up about 3 degrees as well, these cards are interesting as they take a large amount of gpu offset once you pass a certain threshold for very little gain.
