I finally received my Hybrid and it is awesome! 55°C at full load. I have a question regarding the boost clock. What is the stock out of the box boost clock for this card? My card boosts up to 2025 MHz out of the box. I'm not complaining at all but it seems high to me.


Never complain about or question high boost clocks out of the box! There was another thread on here from someone about that and I wanted to bang my head against the wall, LOL. As someone else said stock boost is 1860mhz. Mine boosts to 2000mhz out of the box but I can only reach 2050mhz stable OC so far. I thought 2063 was solid before but further testing proved otherwise. You will probably be able to hit 2100mhz if out of the box you get 2025. 
 
If you're so concerned and can't sleep at night due to high stock boost clock, I've got you covered. I'll trade cards with you and you won't have to worry.

No no no, I'm not complaining at all. I was just wondering.  Apparently ASIC quality is 100%. 
 
I connected the fan to my mainboard instead of the GPU because I want to control it. Now I saw the fan only has 2-pins and my mainboard doesn't really let me control it. I replaced the fan with a Corsair 4-pin fan. Now I can control the speed. But I would like to control the speed of the fan depending on the temperature of the GPU. Unfortunately my mainboard won't let me do that. I also can't use SpeedFan as it won't let me change the speed of the fans.
 
Anybody has an idea how I could solve this problem? Mainboard ist the ASUS Maximus VIII Hero btw.
 
Also: Anybody has a suggestion for a good fan as a replacement?

does your board have fan expert (ai suite)? i just set mine to run at a lower speed anytime im not gaming. then i go into fan expert and set it to 100% while i game. i like noctua nf-f12a fans for my rads. quite, but ugly.

Yes, it has. I more or less do the same now. But I would like an automatic solution.
I know Noctua Fans are good but I just can't get over the color. Doesn't work at all with my build right now.

Just popping in to mention to the two who posted their ASIC quality that pascal doesn't have any way of reading it. Not sure what you're looking at, but it isn't actual ASIC quality.

Also, the Corsair levitation fans aren't all they're cracked up to be. I have 2 140s and 4 120s in my build (doing push/pull on my Hybrid) and they perform well, but they're nowhere CLOSE to silent. Air hitting grills or rads WILL make noise. My Noctuas were quieter at the same temps, honestly.

Good to know. I will be sticking with some Gentle Typhoons.

Hmmm I'd be interested in some hard facts for this. I want to get the hybrid kit on Christmas and I originally planned to slam 2 Noctuas onto it - after reading about the ML120s I thought these would be the better choice regarding noise to performance levels. I planned upgrading my Corsair H100i with them as well (currently using Corsair SP120s on it) Now you are saying they are louder than the Noctuas and I'm quite confused xD Do you use shrouds?

Right when I installed the GPU I loaded an older version of GPU Z and it read the 88 ASIC. It did not read the correct GPU clock at all so I updated GPU Z. That's the last time I saw it, no idea why it was visible then and not now. Or if it even was true ASIC reading at all.

The newest version, when posted, had a comment made by W1zzard (the software author) that he is working on it still and hoping to fix it.  The older versions of GPU-Z read it based on Maxwell architecture and thus gave inaccurate readings.  If I'm not mistaken, the newest versions say "ASIC not supported" in some fashion.
