Going with the gigabyte 1080 waterforce, tired of waiting for EVGA hybrid. Its mid August and no sign of their product. They can sell it to themselves.

Well it seems like I'll be waiting for a MSI 1080ti Hybrid, whenever it comes out (I know, might have to wait a bit).

Truly feeling let down by EVGA's response (or lack thereof) to this preorder fiasco...

Want one of these bad...
System build on hold until I get one.
 
 
Also, cannot believe this is my first post. I know I have posted here before.
Must have been a reset or something.

Hello,
 
So does the fact the Evga Hybrid has 8+8 pin vs MSI Sea Hawk with 1 8 pin mean the Evga is better? I prefer Evga for my video cards but I also fan boy Corsair hard I have to admit. I've been researching on the power phase and number of pins but wanted to ask here. I have my whole system built but I am waiting on sli hybrid 1080s...

They are all about the same.  All can be overclocked a bit +/-.  OC has limits.  The Sea Hawk X 8 pin didnt hold back its performance.  They have a "OC button", when I press on it, the sea hawk x is 2012MHz.  Solid performance on 4K gaming in OC mode.
 
pm me if you want to see the sea hawk x in action at 4K youtube of mine :)  56% increase over my EVGA 4GB 980 ACX 2.0
 
Dont think EVGA would like the link posted.
 
I stopped by to see how many have their hands on the EVGA hybrid.  Shocked!  Should be a winner!
 
 
"I am waiting on sli hybrid 1080s"
I have been looking for a case to do this also.  What case you plan to carry these 2 hybrids?

I'll wait till 8/26/16 to see if the evga hybrid is out or i'll go msi. I want my setup complete by legion release. I'm not getting the 1080 sli for legion btw I will just be playing it on my new build.

While have been waiting, Nvidia has launched the Titan X Pascal. Odds have it, we will probably get the 1080 Hybrid in Europe when Nvidia launches the 1080 Ti.
The time it has taken for EVGA to release their 1080 Hybrid, sometimes I wonder if EVGA is producing everything themself, down to the nuts, bolts and transistors.

I haven't seen a bit of evidence that would lead me to think there is going to be a 1080 ti card at all. Yet so many are convinced based on previous releases. I'm not saying it's not going to happen, but I'll believe it when I see it.

I'm seriously considering an open-box EVGA 1080 FE at Microcenter for $629 then slapping the new Hybrid kit onto it for $120. Did the same for my current 980 Ti SC and it overclocks like a champ.
