I think one other factor to consider is that there's not an "extra" air cooler that isn't being used when you compare the price of the upgrade kit to the difference between the FTW card and the Hybrid card. so it's like the $680 of the FTW, - ?? for not having the normal air cooler, + ?? for the likely most costly hybrid cooler +/- adjustment for marketing/demand reasons = $730

Yeah, bingo.
The price is good though, I expected 750.00 as the previous. Excuse me, 749.99

EVGA hybrid looking great and price too!
I hope the hybrid kit for ftw will be available soon with good price also.

Oh sure, NOW the EVGA Hybrid comes out. Man, I'm never gonna get it set up as clean as ZL1's rig. "Cable management" has been replaced as my least favorite PC building word by "Tentacle management".
It looks like either bad hentai is about to go down, a spiderman villain is hiding in there, or like an italian plumber is going to jump out of all that pipe.
 

FINALLY.the hybrid has come out and it is glorious,the added product with details on evga 1080 line atleast:p.
But on a other note, it seems excact same size as 980ti hybrid and says its dual slotted,but my 980ti hybrid is slightly more than 2 slots.
 
This may be a stupid question tho,but since since it says hybrid FTW on it,there wont be 2 1080 hybrids will there?
 
The price seems to be the same as with the seahawk,so I can excpect the same price as seahawk in norway.
I just hope it gets released soon.

Yeah, but you got the power bro!! Twin sea hawks....shweeeet!! lol

At last it shows up!  But only on the US site, not on the EU - does this mean the EU will need to wait even longer for release? Does EVGA have any time estimates of when some Hybrids will hit EU shores or will it only be the US for the time being?

Looks like next week gentleman. From the horse's mouth.

It's typically 2 weeks after arriving in the US before it makes it to EU because of shipping and handling from the US to EU.

I didnt come to think about that it was for US only:(
 
But atleast I know it will be released and I will get the hybrid 1080 here in eu at the time I start school. Tho I would liked to have it before school starts so I can get to know the gpu a little:p
 
I can wait 3 more weeks,after all I already waited since pascal came out.

I dont know guys.......if I was after a FTW Hybrid I would be keeping close track of that product page.......I bet they go live anytime!!!

At least with the hybrid kit, they said " possibly next week" and then snuck it in there late on a Friday afternoon. lol
