Alright guys it's July. We're almost there.


*Starts the hypetrain*
Come on Jacob dont let us down....By end july i HAVE TO MAKE MY PURCHASE


I know that feeling... I would love to have my card at the end of July as I promised to do some maxed out Let's Plays by then to my ~50 subscribers xD But well, it will get hard as I am in Europe... Hope I can (pre-)order it during the next 2 weeks and get it like 2-3 weeks later. Would be awesome, my build is just waiting for this - everything else is complete. I will pimp the lighting a bit and got a window for the case so there will be some photos as soon as I get my baby.
Currently still running with my old hot GTX 580 that yesterday started crashing every 10-30 minutes in ARK. I was already tempted to order another card many times, in fact I ordered 4 and canceled them as they were sold out before I finished my purchase... Now I decided to wait for the hybrid (what was my original plan anyways) and it is sooooo hard :/ 


 
 


Ye....When i order it, and still have to get it in my country i would have to pay an extra 100 dollars to get it in my hands...meaning if i pay 650 on amazon, it will be a total of 750 to get it all the way here in my hands :/
sucks heh...hopefully if end july i can make my purchase, before my amazon prime expire.... august 10 or earlier, that beauty should be in my system

You guys have a clean system...I just ordered 2 EVGA 850w psu's for me and my gf since she is gonna run her 970 with my 970(SLI)
when i get my 1080
This is her PC(Skylake Build in april but the 970 was bought in december)..and ye the watercoolercable..lazy to cablemanage that for her lol

This is my 4year old 2600k pc excluding the 970 which was bought in december

Yes i was lazy to do a better cablemanage here too lol since i did this 4years ago and was impatient and wanted the system to work. 
Ill do a way better cablemanagement ones the 850w arrive next week
Then the evga hybrid :')  And prob in december or next year i will upgrade the 2600k. It's been overclocked to 4.0 ghz for 3years and a half lol

The Hybrid will replace my MSI GTX970 100ME you see in the picture. I will slide over the Corsair/Rad to the left a little and put the rad from the hybrid next to it on the right.
 



Looks good. I just took a photo with my bad smartphone-cam how it looks for me right now. 
 
TODO : 
- add a purple LED-stripe around the window
- remove/tape the red LEDs from the sound card
- replace the GTX 580 with the GTX 1080 Hybrid
- put the 140mm fan at the back to the bottom and put the Hybrid radiator at the back. Oh, and remove that cable I just saw in front of the fan xD
- sell the old PC with the GTX 580
 
Hopefully it will look great xD 
 


I've never seen a purple color scheme. It's going to look great.
 
All we need is our Hybrids!

Those are nice systems especially your girlfriends system. I just did my Skylake build in Feb/March.

Nice, well it does look clean tho, you actually cable managed your watercooler unlike me...i decided to let the usb and the fan connector from the pump to just hang in the case...lol
1 thing i still need to do for my gf...is to flip her waterpump because as u can see...after i mount the radiator and put everything in place i realized, the pump was upside down :/

Haha I got the same issue in my case if you look close at my photo.. I just realized it when I took it. But I think I am too lazy to flip it, especially as I am not sure if I got enough of my thermal paste (Grizzly Kryonaut) left over and it was kind of hard to apply it (maybe would be more easy if I warm it up before)... I mean it is not a problem function-wise and it is kind of characteristic for my chaotic mind xD Well, I have a month left to think about it until I open my case again ^^
 
/edit: The more I think about it the more it bothers me... Damnit xD Might have to order some new thermal paste together with the graphics card.

Same thing here..if i flip it over i may have to apply new thermal which is why i left it there....I told my gf to not worry about it, it will not make your pc run like **** lol...i probably might have to buy another arctic thermal compound just incase lol

PLEASE tell me the Hybrid version will have threaded fittings like the ASUS Poseidon series. I want to plumb it into my existing loop, not have to find room for another radiator.

PasTecHi
Thats a nice rig Skipman.
Well as i know the evga hybrid doesnt come with  with the fittings like that BUT what you need then is either an ek waterblock or the EVGA Hydro Copper that might be releasing on the same date as the hybrid
