Watching this thread - I'm interested in a 1080 hybrid.  1080 TI hybrid would be much better, but I'll take what's available, as soon as it's available.  I do love my 780 TI hybrid, so if I'm going to upgrade, I might as well just leapfrog the 980's.

Yep This is my next rig: Case and all.



i like it too, but i would probably throw in another rad or 2 for a 4 card setup. 
 
i just can help but think that cpu isnt going to run very cool if its the last in the row, or the last 2 gpus are going to be pretty warm in that setup; depending on the direction
 
i know it would be a mess of tubes, but ideally i want to go cpu - rad - gpu - rad - gpu - rad - pump (i would only do a 2 card sli setup since scaling isnt recommended past that).

I will still keep my two loop system. Best of luck with your new rig as well.

Why wouldn't you just run 3 separate CLCs at that point?

thats what i did for my 980ti hybrid SLI system, but i recently sold one of the 980ti's. but a custom loop would just look cooler.

that one is good too. but a few too many fans for my taste. also, i know its not a huge deal, but I like having the radiators in the correct orientation as well (having the top of the rad being the highest point of the loop, with the tubes on bottom).

With the side cover on you do not see the fans, nor hear them.
They are in a correct orientation as well. Max Temp ever was 56C while Folding at 1530 MHz


 
 
But I will be most likely going this way.

didnt mean to offend. your system is  cool, we just all have different taste/goals/preferences. i mean i like my system too, but its far from cool. sure its powerful and logical. but it could be much cooler looking.
 
i was watching some linus videos, and at some point you stop gaining lower temps by adding fans. if you were bored you could always test by removing some. you might end up getting the same results as before, but while being more quite.
 
your cpu cooler is upside down. correct installation recommends the tubes be at the bottom, so any air in the loop sits at the top of the rad and not at the pump or cpu block. same for your top gpu, the air could potential be sitting at the gpu. the bottom gpu is the best since the air is probably sitting at the top of the rad (or side of the rad since it sideways), and the gpu is lower then the rad. again, not trying to talk $h1t. just making an observation on what is recommended from the installation guides of AIO coolers in case anyone out there doesnt know which way is recommended. and i have read many people say who cares it will work anyways.

The FTW card specs have been released and the Hybrid is very similar to the FTW as per Jacob(EVGA). Is it safe to assume the clock speeds are going to be similar?
 
Base Clock: 1721
Boost Clock: 1860
