bakedbeans6 I was thinking the same thing the other day. Yay, you got a Seahawk. Good! Now get off this forum if you don't have anything worthwhile to contribute.
What have you contributed to this thread? Other than telling people to get off the forum?

I started this thread because I wanted a EVGA Hybrid but it didn't happen because EVGA couldn't get product out to their potential customers in a timely fashion. Which is why I and many others went to the competition. Why does it matter to you that were still here? We are all enthusiasts sharing our passion for gaming.
You're right. I apologize for lashing out in my post a little but ago. I am just frustrated with this whole launch debacle. Mods, feel free to delete my previous comment.

And EVGA needs to know how long we've been waiting for the hybrid, why we went to other brands and how good or better the other brands might be as well. So i say its fair enough right?

Then you're just bickering and adding no context. Maybe other members want to inform each other that there is already another option available, which is fine.

Systom I think it's strange that people who are buying other brands are still posting on EVGA forums, is there no gigabyte/msi forums?
I think its strange that's actually strange to you. You should keep in mind that some people have multiple 1080's of different brands. I can't blame the OP of this thread boasting about his MSI hybrid. I had one a few days ago but sold it for a huge profit in the Hard Forums. Solid card with great temps and overclocks. - Waiting on the FTW hybrid seems futile being that it more than likely will not overclock no higher than the air-cooled version. Which BTW is a total crap fest for the majority of the FTW owners. I guess most people will only be buying it for bragging rights... for the love of that EVGA brand name.

Just for the record, if I came across as if I was boasting or rubbing it in that was not my intention at all. I figured I could help others make a well informed decision if they no longer desired to wait. There are many good products out there that do not bear the name EVGA.

Sadly my xl r2 case doesnt have space for the evga 1080 hybrid+ powerconnector+ cables sticking out so I cant buy it. I think evga did a really dumb choice of chosing that extra long pcb. seahawk and FE is testatament that you dont need 2x 8pin connectors in order to get oc@ 2050-2100. Another stupid thing that evga in my mind is that the 1080 hybrid requires the power adapter. Theres only 1 1080 hybrid kit on ebay/amazon right now its gonna cost 350dollars with shipping+import to my country,and on top of the evga 1080 FE which is 877 dollars and its gonna cost me WAY over what I had in mind to pay for it. So that is out of the question for me. Im gonna go with the seahawk x because its way smaller and the card doesnt cover up my sata 1-4 connections which may seem like a non issue to someone,but to me its a big deal. I mean I can try and fumble with the sata cables or I have to take up the gpu and insert. its alot of work for such a basic thing to do. to those who have seahawk x 1080,whats the max rpm on the fan and do anyone know what db noise it has on max?

that's like saying a Ford/Chevy owner can't post on an import car forum and vice versa. EVGA is a great company, but it's not the only company out there that's producing quality parts. i have no brand loyalty. the only loyalty i have is to performance and my pockets. i've always been an Nvidia-person and it's well known that EVGA provides for a good chunk of their sales -- which is why i joined this forum. at the end of the day, most of us are here because we share a similar passion. not because we're some big EVGA fanboy.

I think it's strange that you think it's strange that I think it's strange! I'm just as upset/anxious as everyone else, don't get me wrong, and I was super tempted to get gigabytes full coverage waterforce, but aesthetics do matter to me as my case is on open display for my apartments feng shui--that, and, EVGA's card matches my entire setup perfectly. (and of course for the fact you can't swap the fan) I wish EVGA just told us outright there would be a delay and perhaps a reason why, and I'm sure some people would have just stuck it out and others would not. The EVGA brand just backs great support, and the FTW has dual BIOS, something I'd want in case of future vbios hax. strange

Not sure why. The Corsair fan cabling is not connected to anything. It's a simple 3 pin connector. I unbolted the 4 screws holding the fan to the radiator and installed my new fan.

The cynic in me says that nVidia purposely trickled out their Pascal chips, to sell as many overpriced Flanders as they could before the AIB's came in and undercut them with their variants.

Someone on another forum says that it is totally unnecessary to buy a watercooled 1080 since they are almost dead silent at full load with aircooling anyway. He compared to his own Palit GTX 1080 Super Jetstream card and said that it is a waste of money to pay more. I have no idea myself. Will it really be any benefit to get watercooling on this card?

he's kind of right and kind of wrong because watercooled 1080's do have some benefits. they're just not as big as previous generations. AIB air coolers are pretty quiet at full load, but that level of noise has alot to do with how good your case's airflow is. for example: my GPU is dang near dead silent and only goes up to the high 40's to mid 50's during hours of gaming in my setup. my Strix rarely ever throttles. IF it does, it only lasts for a split second and shoots right back up to 2101. but there are some guys out there that are still getting temps in the 70's and 80's from their 1080's. watercooled GPU's will provide a consistently lower operating temp across various setups because case airflow is less important. an AIO watercooler should theoretically eliminate throttling all together and it just looks awesome. it'll especially wow people that have never seen watercooled components before. it also doesn't expel any additional heat back into the case like an air cooled GPU does.

Watercooled cards are for low temps actually....That aircooled card be getting 15 to 20 degree hotter than the watercooled cards

as i stated in my post above your's. AIB air coolers really depend on your case's airflow. my Strix GPU has the same temps as alot of watercooled 1080's that i've read about. like right now, i have this browser, CPUID, Afterburner, the CAM software, and the League of Legends game client open. my card is currently sitting at 29*c. it'll go down to the mid 20's during a fresh boot up or if i let the computer goto sleep. it'll hover in the low 30's during less graphic intensive games like League of Legends and the fans don't even spin up until my GPU goes past 34*c. in games like GTA V and Rise of the Tomb Raider (near max settings, no AA, 3440x1440 resolution), i've only seen my card max out at 55*c or 56*c. in those 2 games, the card is usually in the high 40's to low 50's range.

Well on aircool my old 970 gpu gets to 72degree on full load while a watercooled one probably gets around 55. My 1080 should be delivered this week i hope....

Every single aircooled GTX1080 is reaching +80C easily under full load when benchmarking, whereas the MSI GTX1080 Sea Hawk X (Hybrid) maintains ~56C or cooler (depending upon ambient room temperature) under full load when benchmarking. So, it's not just a small difference. In most cases, it's a +30C difference! Meaning that MSI Sea Hawk owners are NOT experiencing the dreaded thermal throttling that the aircooled cards get when pushed past 80C.

yep,thanks for the info:)
have you tried the fan at 100% regarding noise? since you have the seahawk aswell.
No, I haven't. The first thing I did was replace it with a Cougar fan and connected it to my fan controller on my case.
Got lucky and snagged an MSI GTX1080 Sea Hawk X off of Newegg while on backorder. It arrives Wednesday. The first thing I plan to do is replace the EVGA GTX980Ti Hybrid with the Sea Hawk and will replace the stock radiator fan with a Noctua NF-F12 industrial PPC-2000 fan. The fan is specifically designed to have a very high static pressure specifically for radiator applications. I already have the fan as I've been using it on the GTX980Ti Hybrid and it has been working great. Temps never passed 56C under full load benchmarking (ambient temperature 28C). I can only hope the temps on the Sea Hawk will be even lower ;-)

sorry to burst your your bubble tho:p. But I talked to someone on chat via the online shop and the person said if you change the fan that the seahawk comes with that you will fully void the warranty.

I don't rely on your "hearsay". I will believe it once I have spoken to an MSI customer service representative. Sorry, but no bubbles have been burst. Besides, he was referring to the fan on the shroud and NOT the radiator fan. I have no intent on touching the stock fan that cools the VRMs and GDDR5X ;-)
