One thing I don't understand is why they don't offer a bigger radiator.  The 120mm radiator cools better than the straight air cooling, but a 120mm radiator is good for around 100 W.  Ideally, they should offer a 240 mm radiator option for best cooling.
 
It's probably to address the market.  Most folks may not have room for a 240mm radiator in their case.

@Trelor: Yes I could do that but I also had to remove 1 of the fans on the H80i GT cooler so now it is just in 1x push config. My CPU temps have gone up a lot, I lowered my OC and voltage to shave off 5-10C. The latest Nvidia driver has raised my Hybrid temps under load as well (seeing 56C when before max was 50). Not happy with this case and when my rebate arrives I'll use it toward the 760T and give my hardware some breathing room.
 
*Edit: Asus AI Suite was the problem, it was interfering with Corsair software and CPU cooler control. Uninstalled it and Corsair Link is now working as it should with the cooler. Also was just able to fit the 2nd fan back onto the H80i radiator for push/pull config once again so I'm all good. Will post my temps w/ the 1080 Hybrid once installed. 
 
@ksgnow: I would buy a 240mm radiator Hybrid in a second. I think your're right, most people would probably prefer a smaller radiator. 

I would love to have a 140 mm rad option. It's not a huge difference but every degree counts!

I think 120mm is enough, 140mm could be problem for some case.
Some of them support only 120mm fan on back side. If customer want to replace fan and use push-pull easier will find good 120mm radiator fan.
Graphic look GREAT. EVGA GTX1080 FTW Hybrid. Nice name for GPU.
You probably see before...
 

 
Temperatures with Gentle Typhoon 2150 are probably fantastic.
 

I predict huge demand for Hybrid cards before several months and during 2017 will be even bigger.
Many people will decide to buy Hybrid kit or FTW Hybrid GPU. 
 
Some people propose Kraken or etc... But to be honest I want elegant GPU for 1080+100$ and Kraken is not elegant.
Custom loop is only better option, but below 350+ GPU block you can't build nice CPU+GPU cooling.
Together that's almost 500$, just little below. And when you need to pay so much for cooling only, not some new hardware with 80% performance improvements, than it's hard decision if economic situation is not really good. 500$ just like that for cooling.
That's some monitor, 950 PRO + 850 EVO 1TB, newest Intel Core i7+RAM,... etc...
Many gamers and enthusiasts always need something and could spend 500$ on some new hardware, in 90% of situation we need something, me to, I constantly save money for something new :)... tragedy...  and for us is Hybrid great option.
Custom loop look cool and give great temperature but investment is hard decision for many gamers.

the seahawks are available on newegg, screw waiting for this mess to straighten out

CORSAIR sells the Sea Hawk X same price as newegg, always in stock cus no one knows :)  (uses a corsair fan)

Fair warning, MSI warranty sucks big time.  No modifications whatsoever are allowed - not even switching out the radiator fan - crazy!  Also, warranty is not transferable to second owners.  And need I mention that the MSI uses a conventional blower fan, which is quite a bit louder when the card is under full load compared to the much quieter fan on the EVGA GTX1080 FTW Hybrid.  The MSI card has 5+1 VRMs, while the EVGA version has 10+2 VRMs, hence the 2 x 8-pin power connectors.  That doesn't necessarily mean higher overclocks, but is does mean more stable power to the card.  And the EVGA card is $20 cheaper.  So, you see the EVGA version is better in every way.  Just some food for thought.  I know you are impatient and I understand completely.  I just want to outline some key differences that are for me the reasons to wait for EVGA version to be back in stock.

I dont think MSI sucks, I dont think EVGA sucks.  The 1080's are all about the same.  OC, temps, limits.  The 1080 Hybrid's are all good cards. OC (EVGA slightly higher) Temps, limits.
Have you ever kept a video card installed and the warranty ran out? I dont expect to hold on the MSI for 3 years.
I would have had a EVGA about 3 months ago, didnt happen. You have your reasons.  They are both very good cards.
 
Real time performance is the difference, not just random numbers.
1080 resolution 31C-37C.  4K resolution 41C-43C both at 2012 no brainer OC button,.
"I know you are impatient and I understand completely" I am not, made my purchase already :)
Now I am looking for a new case to include Hybrid SLI
 
 

I'm thinking of installing the hybrid's radiator when I buy it in the optical disk drive area (CD-ROM area) as push/pull intake, do you think the tubing is long enough for that in a med tower case (CMSIII)? And is the radiator 140mmx140mm exactly? If it's not I'd appreciate measurements of length, width, and tubing length.

 
Still waiting for my 1080 FTW Hybrid to arrive, shame the shipping costs are so high now through EVGA.
 
I see one on Amazon for $1,200 with a ship date of September 2-20, which means they are hoping to get some from elsewhere at standard pricing first..  scum

Still talking about a card that's still not available? How many days has it been since it came out? For 1070, it's been 26 days since Jacob announced it on twitter.
