Gave in and got myself a Titan X. Sorry EVGA. I usually have good patience but waiting 4 months was a bit too much even for me. Jacob said that the Hybrid is just around the corner, so I hope it comes next week for all of you with even more patience :)

Considering I just received an RMA 1080 Hybrid yesterday after waiting about 10 days for more stock to come in, I'd imagine new stock should be available any moment, although it'll probably get sold out in less than an hour lol. I'm sure you'll be very happy with the Titan X anyway (you got the new pascal model I assume).
 
 

It's unfortunate there are such issues with the EVGA 1080 hybrids and the lack of re-supply.  I was really considering getting a Titan XP, but I made what some may think is an odd choice - I instead went for two 1080 hybrid SeaHawks.  I know there's issues with SLI, I know the cooling system is different than EVGA's...but I am willing to take the "risk" according to most testing (for gaming, which is my only intentions) the FPS difference and temperature difference on load is negligible.  
 
I just wasn't happy with the Titan XP performance at 4K benchmarks.  It's very reminiscent to my current GTX 970 at 1080p: a lot of time at 60fps, but it dips into the 40's and 50's when there's enough demand placed on it.  For $1,500, I can't accept that same variation at 4K gaming.  With the two 1080's, it's solid 60 FPS or higher...same price tag (roughly) plus no need to patchwork a 1080 hybrid cooling system and risk ruining a Titan XP.

Nope.  SLI has too many issues to make me happy.  And 'native' DX12 games (read - not patched from DX11 to DX12) don't scale at all with SLI enabled.  And almost half of all Dx11 games don't scale 50% and usually less vs. running a single Titan XP.  And who cares about benchmarks?  Real game experience is what counts.  Titan XP actually has lower FPS is some games vs. GTX1080 SLI, but the actual gameplay is smoother with the Titan XP!  Crazy, but it's true.

yup. SLI works well enough to make me happy.  everyone has different goals. for me, sli seems to be the best bang for buck method. and for the games that dont support SLI, you still have a 1080 which is far from a bad GPU. people say microstutter exists, but i guess im lucky enough to not notice it. i do get that a single card may have more consistent fps (fewer dips, more stable avg). but for me, its more important to get 4k 60fps across the board, and a 1080 sli setup is more likely to accomplish that.

Amen brother!

in stock for US

jet has the Gigabyte extreme gaming water cooled 1080 in stock. comes out to $1,503.12 for 2. and even a little cheaper if you use a new account (i think like $1450ish). i have $1600 in my digit app. not sure if i want to "waste" it on a 1080 sli setup??????? and i like living, now that i think about it, my GF would stab me. 

Up on Newegg, appears to ship internationally: newegg[dot]com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487266
Jacob is also saying Amazon in a few days: twitter[dot]com/EVGA_JacobF/status/781597802446987264
 
I might wait for Amazon given their reputation for customer service.

Any news on when these will be available in EU?

Still waiting patiently for the FTW Hybrid kit..must resist custom loop..

Since there's been no reply regarding if the EU store really is closed or not I ordered it from one of the Swedish etailers (at a slightly higher cost than at eu.evga.com) which listed the Hybrid as available at their provider. Now we play the waiting game.

I cancelled my purchase on scan.uk since they told they would ship on  08/09, delayed to the 27/09 and delayed again and since i heard there would be a kinda confirmed stock last week for EU , i asked for refund. But no instead NA got a third shippement while EU gets false hopes week after week but hey! some days ago somehow appeared a gtx 1080 hybrid on my cart but i can only buy it via paypal at this point i wanna try to buy but im afraid some error could happen .
