For those of you with a 2080 TI FTW3 HYBRID, what are your stock speed temps at load?
 
I've been running a 2070 XC Ultra with the hybrid cooler for a few months at 1440p, 144hz. GPU temp never got above 65c with fans running at 65% at their highest, mostly stayed around 60c using Ultra/Highest settings on games even with a slight overclock.
 
This past weekend I replaced the 2070 with a 2080 TI FTW3 Hybrid. Exact same system, just swapped the cards with their receptive coolers. Still using the 1440p, 144hz monitor with settings on Ultra/Highest. At stock speeds I struggle to keep the 2080 TI below 70c even with fans running at 90-95%. It's loud AF and is driving me nuts. If I adjust max fan speeds to anything lower than 85% the temps shoot up to 78c, even low 80s. Again, this is at stock speeds, no OC...on a HYBRID cooler.
 
I know the 2080 TI FTW3 is a vastly different card (it's all relative, I guess) than the 2070 XC Ultra but I just can't swallow that these temps are what I should be expecting. I think I could get better temps on air.
 
Ambient temp in room is 21c, temp inside case levels out at 30c after 30 mins of Heaven. I have a total of nine fans in the case - 3 intake, 3 exhaust, 1 on GPU Rad, 2 on CPU RAD. CPU has a decent overclock and never gets above 55c. I've tried the GPU rad with a push set up and a pull set up. No noticeable difference in GPU temp. I have not tried a push/pull set up yet but just got a fan splitter today to give this type of configuration a try. I've attached a pic of my setup with fans labeled.
 
Maybe my expectations are skewed because my 2070 hybrid temps were much lower. All I know is sitting next to a helicopter (since GPU fans are at 95%) trying to play games is not pleasant.

    I can tell you, the 2080 Ti FTW3 is a HOT card. This scales especially with raising the power limits and voltages manually. I've had okay results with tuning the voltage curve and reigning it in a bit using X1, but can definately say this is the hottest Hybrid I've used. I had mine hitting close to 80C, but that was with increasing the power and voltage sliders. Also, the onboard VRM fan is a loud one compared to last gen.

    Flip the bottom fans as intake.  You never put those down there as exhaust.  What most do is either Front/Bottom intake with Top/Rear exhaust or Front/Bottom/Top intake and just rear exhaust.  Play around with that and see what happens, plus the 2080 Ti has a higher TDP hence why you're seeing higher temps.

    The fans - as others have said could be arranged better
     
    If the Only thing you changed was the cards .... OK, your hybrid is not working correctly
     
    Did you install the Hybrid Cooler ?
     
    The cooler is not touching the GPU properly or the TIM is Not covering the whole GPU die
     
    Can you confirm the Pump is actually Running ?  one hoes (from GPU) should be much warmer than the hose coming from radiator
     
    Both of My EVGA 2080Ti are on Air & Delta T of 45C (above room temp) is Normal under load --> Hybrid should run Much cooler than your Delta T of 57C

    My guess is the 2070 hybrid was running cooler simply due to achieving notably lower clock speeds and power draw with that setup. The 2080 ti is going to be able to draw more power and push higher clocks with that 144hz monitor and is going to run hotter just because of that, alone. 

    It may sound weird but I suggest trying to install your GPU rad/fan in the front as an intake setup, assuming the coolant lines will reach. By switching my 2080 ti hybrid from rear exhaust to front intake, I was able to drop my GPU core and memory temps by almost 10C. Then, I added another fan for a push/pull setup and saw an additional drop of 5C. Now my temps almost never exceed 58C, even after multiple hours of gaming on a 3440x1440 120hz monitor with ultra settings. My CPU max temps remain unchanged from this configuration. 

    I also agree with GTXJackBauer, that those bottom fans need to be intake. 

    Here's what I did to achieve the lowest GPU temps possible: (rear/top exhaust + front intake)

    I have the same case. I run 3 fans at the bottom as intake, 3 fans from the 360 CPU radiator as intake, and 4 fans on top as exhaust (2 of the exhaust fans are in push pull configuration on the GPU radiator).

    At most I get temps in the low 60s, but average is in the mid 50s for temps. This is at ultra settings for gaming.

    The temps inside the case are not an issue but I'll consider flipping them over.

    I did not install the hybrid cooler on the 2080 TI. I bought it pre-assembled. The pump is running (the first thing I confirmed).

    When your temps are in the low 60s/mid 50s, how hard are the fans running? 50%? 65%? 90%? 
     
    EDIT: Nevermind this question. I just read your specs. Something is not right with my cooler. I haven't even OC'd my 2080 ti FTW3 and my temps are way hotter and fans spinning way faster than yours.

    Based on several posts I will re-evaluate my fan configuration. However, I don't see this affecting the GPU temps in any drastic fashion. Last night I configured the GPU rad with push/pull fans. Only minimal difference in temp. I spent a couple hours in The Division 2 in Ultra with rad fans at 85% and shroud fan at 65% and managed to keep a pretty steady 68c. Still way hotter than I'd care to see with a hybrid cooler.

    ^ Did you try moving the GPU rad to the front as intake with push/pull? 

    I'm telling you, I saw almost a 15C difference by moving it to the front as intake and adding a second fan for push/pull. A couple hours in Division 2 with highest settings on a 3440x1440 monitor at 120hz and my 2080 ti FTW3 Ultra Hybrid temps never exceed 60C. And that's OCed +800 memory and +110 core clock in a more restrictive H700i case.

    I haven't tried moving the rad yet. My case "front" is glass (see pic in original post) so I can't put a fan on the actual front. But, it does have a side-front option for rad/fans that I might try but I'm suspicious the rad tubes won't be long enough to reach.

    Yeah, looking at your setup, the back middle intake fan location might be your best bet but it might be tight with the tubes, like you said. 
     
    Alternatively, you could try that bottom front fan location for it. But you are supposed to keep the radiator mounted above the card with the tubes down. So that may not be the way to go.

    Well, after a few hours of wrecking my case I’m done with this hybrid cooler. First, I moved the rad to the side-front with a single fan intake setup. Same temp results as before with fans at 65% (shroud) and 90% (rad). Flipped the fan around for an exhaust setup. Same results. Moved on to a push/pull intake setup. Dropped temps two degrees to 68/69. Next up was a push/pull exhaust setup. Same 68/69 temps with fans at 65% and 90%. Just out of curiosity I removed every panel from my case so there was no air restriction. Nearly identical temp results. Again, out of curiosity I put all the panels back on and slightly OC’d the card. Temp went up to 72/73 pretty quick. I almost want to open this thing up to see if there is a contact issue with the GPU but I also don’t want the hassle.

    Next step was pulling the rad out and while running the pump/fans, sitting it on its side to get any air out (suggested by EVGA support). I also gave it some gentle shaking. Put it back in with same results.

    The pump is working as the hoses are warm and there is noticeably hot air being exhausted through the rad. If the pump wasn’t working I’d expect temps to be much higher. Looking at ICX in PX1 the memory is staying relatively cool.

    I think my next step is to have a more in depth convo with Support or request an RMA.

    Something with your setup or the card def isnt right. Your fan config is not ideal imo based on your pic.

    Id just call evga abd see what's up tbh, if you're not willing to open her up

    Yeah, there's definitely something strange going on with your card. I had a 2080 FTW3 Hybrid and now a 2080 ti FTW3 with Hybrid kit I installed. Both obtain much lower temps than what you are reporting and my case is a bit tighter with less air flow.

    I'd do one of two things:
     
    1) Call support and start the RMA process. 

    2) If you have a good card that OC's well and runs issue free, aside from the higher temps, you may want to hold onto it and just open it up to check the thermal paste application on the GPU core. The pump may not be making proper contact or the paste spread isn't covering the whole die. I know this may sound daunting but after installing the hybrid kit with my 2080 ti I can tell you that it's really not bad at all. Just a handful of screws and some patience.   

    Good luck, either way!

    i run a 2080ti ftw3 hybrid and i have never ever seen temps higher than 70C, with the fans and pump running at 100%. disasemble your card and the hybrid kit parts and re apply thermal paste(make sure it has thermal paste) since you said it was preassembled, and check for any other irregularities, and then recheck temps. if your temps are still that high something else is majorly wrong.
     
    Edit:
    the previous poster is dead on about the disassembly and reassembly process. its super easy, cool to do, and will help you get a better grasp of how your card works as a system. i installed my hybrid kit onto a stock 3 fan card and it was no big deal, took like a half hour and was really cool to see the bare PCB with my own two eyes for the first time. definitely worth trying before just blindly sending it back with an RMA

    I own an EVGA 2080ti XC Ultra (air cooled, fan around 55% speed)
    For open case (H100R), overclocked to core-2050MHz & Mem-7500MHz, running Anthem at Ultra 1080p, FPS around 100-150, them temperature sits around 62C.
     
    If closed case, the temp is around 70C (I only have 1 back exhaust fan, one H60 pull front intake, one Arctic F14 front intake).
     
    Based on my result, I would say your temperature is too high, so try to contact EVGA support.
