Went ahead and got the GigaByte 1080 Xtreme WaterForce. Super excited to see what it can do, as it promises the highest out of box OC of the water cooled cards(1936mhz). I will keep you guys informed as to what it can do stable after some fine tuning for that sweet spot 

Congrats. Can't wait to here how it is.

I have a question about the 1080 hybrid cooler kit. Do I have to remove the complete front - like for EK water blocks or the individual parts, similar to the EVGA 980TI installation video on youtube? Is it possible to make a picture from the installation guide? 

Just finished taking pics of my install guide.  I'll add one soon. 

Great - thanks!

It's a bummer that none of these can reach that 2200+ threshold.. the water will help keep the core clock at its max, at least.
 
As for specific cards, I saw the "Add to Cart" option for the Waterforce, but already purchased the FTW a couple days prior. Depending on temps and core clock sustainability, I may not purchase the 1080 FTW Hybrid kit. Plus, that Titan P has to be coming very soon and I'm sure the regular 1080 Hybrid cooler will fit that.

I wonder hows the noise on 1080 hybrid cooler kit pump? Can you change the fan out? Whats the AVG RPM of the fan on load? Just wandering since I have h115i and I am hoping pump noise will be exactly like it is on Quiet for h115i or even lower ( h115i is completely silent inside it's case on idle and load but does make 'pump' noise if you open the case and try your hardest to hear it ).

What did you actually order?  This ? "Ordered around 6:00 PM EST, SC and FTW were in stock around that time."

I got the Waterforce 1080 with Gigabyte, cause I wanted something watercooled with a good warranty soon. I was gonna get a EVGA watercooled this round but the delays or whatever stopped it from coming out late June/early July stopped me from getting one. When I saw that Waterforce card's clocks out of the box were so high I was sold, so hopefully its a good overclocker. So just waiting for it to arrive sometime between now and Thursday.

On a GTX Titan X I had with the EVGA cooler the pump was not very noticeable if any at all. The fan in the 1080/1070 kit can be changed, it's just screwed to the 120mm radiator -- haven't installed mine yet, however. If you have the space, and really want to, you could do a push-pull fan configuration.
 
For example, I used a Noctua NF-F12 PWM fan for a hybrid GTX Titan Black install using a Hydro Series HG10 N780 GPU Liquid Cooling Bracket with a Corsair H55 pump. With that configuration, I had to keep the Titan Black GPU in the top-most slot, as there is no way of keeping the hoses perpendicular to the card such that they do not occupy the slot at the top. The hoses thus angle towards the top of the computer case, slightly blocking the slot on top -- picture attached. The EVGA GTX 1080 FE is the one at the bottom, before hybrid conversion.
