Video of my completed build from the picture I posted some pages back NOT featuring the 1080 hybrid, but the EVGA T2 PSU at least.
 





That has to be the best setup I have ever seen.
 
Nicely done.

hehehippie
the front of your case looks pretty dang cool.

Infinity Mirror effect/illusion.

what are the case and rad fans you are using?

In Win 805 Infinity case, tempered glass & aluminum.
I originally was going to get the plain 805 version until I saw this case which was only a prototype and they weren't sure if they'd bring it to market...then they did, I was probably one of the first people to get one of these after keeping in touch with In Win over it's release.
All of the fans are Gentle Typhoon 2150 PWM, except for the Gigabyte fan that's hidden on the opposite side of the lower rad in push/pull.

Thanks, I put a lot of thought and time into it, minor mods here and there throughout. I could do somethings a tad bit better, but considering this is only my second personal build ever, I'm pretty happy with the end results...at least for now, until a future upgrade.

I think EVGA's Hybrid would have also matched perfectly with the aesthetic I was going for without modding anything, the way I did Gigabyte's card, which is a shame as I've only ever used EVGA cards. BUT, it's their loss as they failed to address or do anything about the website erroring when the card went up for preorder and I should have been able to get one as I was there at ground-zero, trying for at least 10 minutes before it was out of stock...let alone waiting so long for it.
At this point, no regrets, and I actually feel sorry for those still trying to get this card when by now, I don't think it'll be worth it with the rumors of the 1080ti, might as well just wait...assuming EVGA does a hell of a lot better job with that release over it's 1080 release.

I don't doubt that EVGA sold and still sells a lot of cards this time around as well. But with the Hybrid release I actually think they lost quite a bit of hardcore fans, such as myself. Do I believe EVGA has lost their reputation? No not at all. I will still continue to buy EVGA products. Why? Because they are the best. They just need to work out their community management a bit.

I'm now waiting for the Hybrid Kit for the Titan X Pascal and the Power Connector just because of reasons hehe :P

Evga (eu) phone call support and Jacob on twitter told me the same ,that Eu store is close because they are changing warehouses, at the end it was just a question of bad timing and a bit of lack communication .

Hey guys, about to pull the trigger finally for a new card and have been eyeing the hybrid. I really want a good solid card thats quiet, how does the ambient/load sound levels of the card seem? Im upgrading from a pair of 680 classifieds which can be a bit loud under load....

I had two 670 FTW before upgrading to the Hybrid. Compared to the 670s the Hybrid is almost completely silent. I have two fans on the radiator and I set my fans to a maximum of about 50% (I use my motherboard to control the fans). Under full load it won't go over 55°C and the sound level awesome. The fan on the card itself is completely silent. I can't hear it at all.

jet.com has them. comes to like $1450 for 2. i still cant pull the trigger. i have a 980ti, and cant help but think waiting for a deal on a 980ti hybrid for like $350 or less (used) would be better then dropping $1450 on 2 1080 hybrids. at least until 1080ti's come out or maybe even longer. i had a 980ti SLI setup before, and it did well enough for 4k 60fps.
