I was considering this Titan but the stock cooler is too hot and loud. The card is a beast at 2000mhz+, it was made for water.

I set mine at a steady 1800mhz boost clock (and memory at +550x2) and it stays at 70-72C with the fan at 70%. It's not too bad, pretty much the same as the 1080s I had. They would OC up to 2080mhz but only with the fan on full blast, and even then it was hitting 82C and the 2080 wasn't steady, there were plenty of thermal drops. Putting water cooling on them definitely kept them cooler though they didn't clock any higher.
 
I'm going to put the Titan underwater first chance I get. I was looking at EK but that's just too expensive when I know a decent AiO unit is coming from EVGA.

EVGA GTX Hybrid
It sucks that nVidia are not allowing AIB partners. EVGA can have my money anytime, when it comes to GPUs the Hybrid conversion is worth it and really allows the GPU to run at it's full potential not to mention safer and quieter! And having GPUs run at 44C in games like The Witcher 3 in 4K/3440x1440 is great. Since my Hybrid conversion my SLI clocks are stable on both GPUs, on air they were very jumpy, Maxwell on air was a lot more stable...
 
This move by NV really surprised me...wasn't there an EVGA TITAN, TITAN BLACK, TITAN Z and of course GTX TITAN X?
I'm not talking about custom coolers and all the AIB partners...but EVGA surely?? They have the best AIO cooler for it.
If this was a EVGA TITAN X I'd buy right now...but yeah I'm not buying such an expensive GPU with a stock cooler that your stuck with forever (well a few month haha!)...unless you want to lose warranty.
 
Good thing is there is something to look forwards to in the future...we still need 4K 144HZ, c'mon ASUS!

Are we certain that the 1080 AiO kit won't fit the Pascal Titan?
 

 
It's made for other versions of the 1080 other than the FE, so it must have room for another power connector, right?
 
I know EVGA is working on a hybrid kit for the Pascal Titan, I'm just very impatient. This thing needs water cooling.
 
Actually what it needs is an EVGA version. Very sad to move away from my favorite GPU brand.


It will fit.  As I said above, the only other consideration is that there is an extra power phase on the PCB the 1080 doesn't have, so the midplate needs to be modified.  The unlinked URL will take you to a post where the user posted pictures.
 
I'll be patient.  Much like the 1080 this thing is power limited, so better cooling will only get you more stable Boost (and quieter operation, of course).

We need this! Hybrid titan x was a blast! Im pretty sure hybrid titan xp will be aswell.

Its a 1200 dollar card. It deserves to be watercooled. seems like anyone who would spend 1200 on the card would spend a little more to cool it well. 


Except, nvidia doesn't allow cooler modification lmao... That's the whole problem here.


Nvidia warranty doesn't state that anywhere.
 


Really? Let me point it out for you....
 
WHAT DOES THIS WARRANTY NOT COVER?
....misapplication of service by a party other than an authorized service representative....
 
In other words. If you install a cooler, and your card fails, they have an easy out on warrantying the product. 


Even with that they're going to have a hard time proving the card had an aftermarket cooler on it as the cards come with no tamper stickers. None of my cards have tamper stickers on them.

First thing I checked when I got mine - no stickers lol you can def put a block on it and if it breaks out the stock one on and return it - that's exactly what I'm doing.

So any update on this ? I'm waiting for your kit guys so i can order a titan xp. No way i'm going to get a jet stream in my home.

Its honestly not loud at all but then again I'm not overclocking mine until I get an AIO hybrid cooler fan sits around 20-30% which is not noticeable however I know I am not getting the most out of my card. Hitting 77-84c with fan speeds 20-30% isnt ideal but it the card runs great still at 1500-1700mhz. I am super tempted to put a Hybrid 1080 cooler on my Titan and just cutting a hole for the 6 pin power connector.

Considering EVGA is still trying to get the 1080 and 1070 FTW Hybrid out the door, I'd say we still have awhile. I can't imagine EVGA is going to get down on their hands and knees to help NVIDIA Titan Xp customers before their own 1080 and 1070 customers.
 
I'm sure running at stock speeds with the default fan curve doesn't produce any noise but you're also cheating yourself 10% performance increase and even at stock speeds with the default fan curve, you're going to be missing your max stock boost clock.
 
Point is, the default cooler is awful. EVGA can't come through with the Hybrid soon enough.
